"The Irish Brotherhood" is the history of Jack Kennedy s original political inner circle. Led by Bobby Kennedy, Kenny O Donnell, Larry O Brien, and Dave Powers they were tough minded, Irish-Catholic guys who were joined together by a common ambition to see Jack Kennedy through to the White House. War veterans who were young, ambitious, and they wanted their country back. Jack Kennedy was their man, their leader. No matter that he was Irish, Catholic, and his Old Man had made as many enemies as friends Jack had ambition, brains, a special charisma. To win the White House would be a victory not only for Jack Kennedy, but for the downtrodden. They collectively decided that if the political powers would not let them in willingly then they would kick the door down. At the center of the story is Kenny O Donnell, Jack Kennedy s tough talking, no-bullshit, top political aide. Jack recognized he needed Kenny s blue collar, political genius and Kenny recognized something special in Jack.
