Joseph Patrick Joe Patrick Kennedy Sr (1888 September 6th, Boston-1969 165438 October 18 Hynes, Massachusetts), American businessman, financial industrialist, diplomat, American Democratic Party party member. My father is a poor Irish immigrant. In order to improve his fate, he was sent to study. 19 12 graduated from Harvard university. Engaged in finance and industry in his early years. Later, with the support of his father, he became the chairman of a bank and claimed to be the youngest bank chairman in the United States and became a millionaire. I started to get involved in politics from 1929. Joseph knew franklin roosevelt before and decided that he was the leader needed by the country. Helping him run for public office also helped him enter politics. So Joseph began to help Roosevelt raise funds and accompanied Roosevelt on campaign trips many times. For some reason, after Roosevelt was elected president, he was not entrusted with an important task, but was appointed as the chairman of the newly established CSRC. Joseph took a fancy to the position of finance minister. Nevertheless, Joseph remained loyal. 1935, he "wrote" a book about the election campaign, I support Roosevelt (actually written by a reporter), and then sent it to Roosevelt. Roosevelt only replied to a short message: "The book is good, I am very happy." Joseph took this reply on the note as a treasure, framed it and hung it at home, boasting whenever guests came. His loyalty to Joseph was rewarded by Roosevelt, who appointed him as the ambassador to Britain in 1937. This is something that an Irish Catholic descendant never dared to think about before. Although Joseph is good at making money, he is still clumsy in politics and advocates appeasing Germany. After the outbreak of World War II, he was pessimistic about the war between Britain and France and Germany. 1940 suggested that Roosevelt's policy of giving up military aid to Britain and France was not adopted. In the same year, he left for home. Roosevelt didn't appoint him to any post, and he disappeared from politics. But he is unwilling, he wants his four sons to go into politics; His son, John F. Kennedy, was the 35th president of the United States.
