President Obama, and Top Politicians take part in Kennedy Institute Dedication in Boston

President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, and a parade of other top politicians are to descend on Dorchester today to speak at the formal dedication of the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate.

The kickoff, like the institute, is poised to be both a paean to the power and majesty of the legislative body as well as a celebration of Kennedy, the liberal lion who served as US senator from Massachusetts from 1962 until his death in 2009.

The new monument to a member of the state’s most famous political family is on Columbia Point in Dorchester, next to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.

The president, Biden, Governor Charlie Baker, US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Edward J. Markey, Mayor Martin J. Walsh of Boston, members of the Kennedy family, and other politicians are set to speak at the ceremonies, a day before the $78 million interactive museum devoted to civic education is opened to the public.
