NEW YORK - Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and Kennedy insider who helped define mainstream liberalism during the Cold War and remained an eminent public thinker into the 21st century, has died, his son said. He was 89.
Schlesinger suffered a heart attack.

You may be right, Piggy. This word just in: My sources say that Schlesinger was in good health and he was about to publish a book that was going to " blow that Kennedy thing right out of the water." His son is demanding a full investigation into the matter which may end up being the " 21st Century's Warren Commission." Former President Bill Clinton may be asked to be on the Commission , because like former President Ford, he is of "unquestionable character." |

I think when a person is 89 years old, the phrase "in good health" has to be taken within that context.
By the way, what are your sources? |
