- Despite endorsing Obama in 2008, JFK's daughter Caroline now considers Obama a "liar," according to a family source in Edward Klein's new book on Obama called "The Amateur."
- Caroline's past support for Obama, which was mirrored by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, caused a riff in the family. In fact, Klein writes of an incident where Bobby Kennedy Jr. got in his uncle Ted's face over Ted's support for the president.
- Some of the Kennedys' diminishing support for the president is due to the Obamas snubbing several members of the Kennedy family on multiple occasions — one that sent Ethel Kennedy on a furniture-turning rant.
- But despite the tension, both families know the Kennedys have no one else to support, and that "really pisses [Caroline] off."
