Obama receives the endorsement of Ted Kennedy and Caroline Kennedy

Obama held an event at American University here in DC today to receive the endorsements from the Kennedy clan: Ted, Caroline and Patrick. CNN and MSNBC carried it live. Looked pretty intense. Obama spoke about his father -- a Kenyan immigrant who got to attend college in the U.S. in part through a grant from the Kennedy Family Foundation. Here's the video of those remarks:

Senator Clinton has several other members of the Kennedy family supporting her including the former Lieutenant Governor of Maryland, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend.
