Kennedy is really unlikely at best - he had barely any experience by that point, and was barely a senator. Mattered a lot more back then. Just too young, overall - now that I look at it, he would have very narrowly been even eligible for the job by the time of the Democratic convention. Far, far, too young. By comparison, Obama had a decade on him when he ran, and vastly more experience.
