Caroline Kennedy: Running for U.S. Comics...
Michelle Obama, Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton have previously been chosen to be featured in laudatory bio-comic books that look positively at their lives. Now, Bluewater Productions announces its latest candidate to make the grade:
Caroline Kennedy. She with her eye on a New York seat for Senate.
Bluewater, which has a continuing series about "influential and iconic women," says it chose the daughter of John F. Kennedy before she announced her interest in New York politics. "She was on the short list," says publisher Darren G. Davis, adding: "She is an amazing person who has done a lot for education."
Written by Neal Bailey and drawn by Ryan Howe this one-shot will be in stores in June.

Actually, I recall that during the JFK administration there was a comic strip by well-known humorist Gerald Gardner called "Miss Caroline" that was centered around a child growing up in the White House. I just Googled it to make sure, and indeed, here it is:
