Caroline Kennedy wrote a letter to key senators on Tuesday, calling her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a \u201cpredator\u201d who is addicted to the attention he gets from airing dangerous views on vaccinations.<\/p>\n

She called on lawmakers, who will be questioning Mr. Kennedy at his confirmation hearings to become the nation\u2019s health secretary on Wednesday and Thursday, to reject his nomination. She cited his lack of experience, misinformed views on vaccines and personal attributes. In the letter, she described how he led other families members \u201cdown the path of drug addiction.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her letter was first reported in The Washington Post.<\/p>\n

She gave him credit for overcoming his drug addiction, which Mr. Kennedy has discussed extensively<\/a>, but she said that the collateral damage was extensive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
