Here’s a clip from Big Think of Ted Kennedy describing his first trip to DC in 1949 when he was 15 years old. His tour guide was his older brother, John, then 30, who was serving his first day as an elected congressman, and who gave Ted some advice that stuck with him for the rest of his life. It’s an insightful and touching clip.
