Kennedy graduated magna cum laude in political science, philosophy, and economics from Vanderbilt, where he was president of his senior class and elected to Phi Beta Kappa. He received his law degree from the University of Virginia and his Bachelor of Civil Law degree from Oxford University in England where he was a First Class Honors graduate.

Leghorn starred in 29 cartoons from 1946 to 1964 in what is considered the Golden Age of American Animation, usually tormenting a dog named Dawg while fending off attacks from a feisty young chicken hawk named Henery Hawk.

Sen. Kennedy and Mr. Leghorn both prefer to express themselves through colorful colloquialisms and downhome sayings. One does so to make you think he's wise, the other to make you think he's a country rube. Or, as the senator puts it, "They call me folksy. I think that means they're surprised I have a college degree."
