It was 14 years ago tonight that John Kennedy, his wife and her sister died in a plane crash and recently I found myself thinking about him and wondering how his life would have turned out if he had lived. He'd be 52 now, turning 53 in November, older than President Obama. Would he have run for office? Gotten a divorce? Had kids? No way to know for sure, of course. I actually doubt he would have run for President, as some have suggested but you never know. I don't mean to imply that his death was any more tragic than anyone else's, just because he was rich, famous and good-looking, but it's still sad to think about. If nothing else, it's a reminder that life is short and you never know what might happen.
