Kennedy’s quiet stance after Carter’s nomination noted
UPI reports Kennedy, seen as a glamorous but absent figure at the Democratic National Convention, plans to return to the Senate while avoiding close ties to Carter. He indicated he would campaign for the Carter Mondale ticket only in special situations, aiming to stay clear of party power brokers after the convention. Kennedy’s past convention influence highlighted a shift as Carter sought to win traditional liberal allies.
