I saw this when he went to a poor section in the south and asked have the eaten today? We are failing in this area. These are the future Adults and he had deep empathy for the whole American families not just certain ones

The night before the Indiana primary, I ran alongside his car a block from my house and got to touch his hand (through a swarm of other hands). That was May 6, one month before he died.

    I think it is incredible to imagine what Bobby's wife Ethel had to suddenly take on, as she dealt with her own shock and grief, along with raising 10 children, and soon giving birth to their 11th child. Yes, they had money and that helped, but she was left to nurture, guide, love and raise those 11 children on her own and help them through the grief of suddenly losing their dad. I wonder how that was all done in the wave of a national tragedy happening to the man she loved and depended on.

That shows the mom did a good job raising them kids to do good in life and not turn to a life of gangs, drugs, crime, etc.. I'm sure it was devastating to the entire family and having to overcome such a traumatic event in their family must have been very hard, but they made it through after all. Thank God they stuck together as a family and made it through their struggle... SAD LOSS TO ALL OF THEM (the Kennedy Family) AND OF COURSE, FOR THIS COUNTRY AS WELL.. ....

    A complex man. A human being who was willing to learn. He was not bound by the privileged society that he was born into. All human beings have strength and weakness. Bobby Kennedy took his strength, an ability to actually see the world around him. He had been sheltered from the poverty and needs of the downtrodden. He sought it out to understand. Few men or women have this courage to look at the accepted status quo. Bobby did and it changed him forever. What might we have been if this brilliant man had been president? Sadly, we will never know.

    RFK had the same qualities that Lincoln had…clever, charismatic political operators, tortured by depression and personal loss, motivated to help the poor and down-trodden, and anguished by war, and with an abiding sense of justice for the common man. They also had visions of a better future for mankind, only to be killed before they could realize the dream. They were both also able to be introspective - they could step outside themselves and look at themselves - which is a rare trait and highly intelligent.

Then MLK & RFK sealed my belief. Who would have ever though it would get this bad with Trump, MTG, Boebert., etc. Liberty & Justice for all is not important to some, they support a liar & bully former guy.

    @WesternTruthTV extremely different way. RFK SR. Was a cop who was best buddies with Joseph mccarthey he was in no way a proggressive. He became more liberal towards the end of his life but was not like LBJ and Hubert Humphrey. Look He wanted to build a multi ethnic working class coalition. He wanted to end malnutrition and end the war in Vietnam. But that was only at the very end of his life he was basically a conservative for most of his life. His son is the exact opposite. RFK JR. Hqs praised hugo Chavez. Is a election denier and also is a conspiracy theorist about his own fathers killer. He is a economic proggressive to the point of bernie sanders. His father was not and his uncle definetely wasn't. RfK and JFK were pretty conservative people at least by 1960s standards. their is so much more things that can explain why RFK JR. Is the polar opposite of his father that would take me forever to explain. Just look it up but yea they are not one of the same. Plus the only reason why he is doing good int the polls is because biden and trump are gonna run and I hate both of them. But believe me having RFK JR. As president would be much worse. Oh he also was in favor of jailing climate change deniers so that is another thing about him thay is different from his father.

    Having grown up in those days, I saw and heard JFK speak when he was running for President. My older sister and I went to see him when he campaigned in our home town. JFK was bright, articulate, an excellent speaker, and the girls all went ga-ga over him. Fast forward to when Bobby was running for a Senate Seat in New York, our family was driving through a town in NY and it just so happens that Bobby was campaigning there. We could hear his voice over the public address system although we could not see him. I too have questioned how a Divine Creator could allow both of these great Americans to be assassinated. I still question WHY? However, I suppose we cannot expect Divine Intervention cannot solve all our problems. One thing for sure, our country would be a lot different if both of those men had lived.

    Bobby would have been a great American President that never was. The Evil of mankind destroyed man hopes for peace, democracy and justice. Under Bobby's presidency, the Vietnam war would have come to an honourable conclusion. Bobby, has the intellectual capability to see war as an enemy of peace and mankind. He had the capacity to end the Vietnam war to America's advantage.

    @@jamesanthony5681 Robert S. McNamara, and thus inevitably called “McNamara’s 100,000,” the project was a way to meet the manpower demands of an escalating war. Unwilling to fill the ranks through politically risky policies such as drafting college students or deploying large numbers of National Guard and Reserve personnel to Vietnam, the Johnson administration turned to the pool of men the president privately termed “second-class fellows.” The book also addresses a separate but related issue: lower standards that led to recruiting or drafting men with criminal records, medical defects, social maladjustments and psychiatric disorders. By the time McNamara’s project ended in December 1971, 354,000 formerly ineligible men had been inducted into the Army (which had 71 percent of the total), Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force. Overwhelmingly, they were sent to Vietnam. Of course, terms like “substandard” or “mentally unfit” were never used by the Johnson administration to describe McNamara’s 100,000, officially referred to as “New Standards Men.” The program was part of the Great Society/War on Poverty initiatives to provide education, training and opportunity to a disadvantaged class of American society.

    Here is a story about RFK from a South Korean politician, Kim Jong Pil. He was member of 1961 Coup. After the successful Coup, JFK told the New SK Regime to send envoy, so he came to USA. When he entered White House office, RFK was sitting behind a large desk talking on the phone with his feet on the desk. He was on the phone for half an hour without acknowledging the SK envoys. So Kim Jong Pil decided to sit on the chair infront of the desk, and put his feet on the desk, just like how RFK was doing. After seeing this, RFK hung up the phone and said "What is the point of this coup? What do you expect to achieve by this?" in a very condesending manner. So Kim told RFK "Our goal is too make our country strong and wealthy, so that we don't have to beg aids from your country". After hearing this, RFK seemed impressed by the response, and he lowered his feet, stood up and shook Kim's hand.

    I was a junior in high school in 1968, I do remember that he wanted to be the difference maker. After King was assassinated the expression on his face told me that he realized he would be next, the loss of bobby changed American politics in a very drastic way. Bobby wanted to bring politics out of the closet. Bobby had everything working on his behalf, he was funny he could be serious, caring and he wanted to be the opposite of Lyndon Johnson the individual who truly wanted him dead because bobby was a prosecutor at heart that's why he was his brothers attorney general, the youngest in American history.

    I'm almost 82. I was 26 when Bobby Kennedy was assassinated . Some Precious part of me died the night Bobby was murdered. But that part of me has been resurrected with Bobby Kennedy Junior's candidacy for POTUS. When I first heard he was running, I had bought into the mainstream media portrayal of him as a conspiracy nut but I felt I owed it to Bobby to at least give his son a listening to. I'm so glad I did! After listening to many interviews I got a feel for his sincerity and Integrity. What's more, when I learned of his practicing a rigorously honest spiritual program, being an old friend of Bill's, well, that just put me over the moon! His emphasis on placing principles before personalities and not impugning the motives of others, but focusing only on policy differences keeps him out of the childish blame-game pettiness which has characterized politics for the last few presidential cycles. For the last 15 years or so I've heard Republicans complain that liberals, like communists, want to redistribute the wealth from the Rich to the Poor. Well, I've been around a while and my experience over the last 50 years or so tells me that through corporate lobbying, payoffs, financing campaigns, etc., Corporate America has more than just captured the Agencies which are supposed to regulate it. It has captured the Whole political system, both Republicans and Democrats to essentially establish a political duopoly which has dismantled the union movement, decimated the middle class and created the homeless class with exorbitant rental rates, interest rates on homes and credit cards, school loans, and stagnated wages over the last 45+ years. And so, the Rich, like plutocrats, have been Redistributing the wealth from the Poor to the Rich! Bobby knows how to stop this because he's been suing Corporate America and the government agencies that are captured by Corporate America for polluting and injuring people, winning billions of dollars in judgments for the last 40 years. Please, just listen to his full interviews on KZread! And IGNORE the mainstream media interviews which are almost always EDITED to take his comments out of context to skew his meaning or views. When Bobby committed to this campaign to become president, he took a leap of faith. Let's all take a leap of faith with him because it's the right thing to do. Let's say goodbye and good riddance to the duopoly that thrives on us fighting one anotherand take a leap of faith into a new consciousness of Hope and healing and caring for one another. Let's stop voting for the ones who despise, and vote for the one who inspires!

Her husband had come home from work at Chryslers . He would always turn over to a channel that played pirate movies only. I went onto bed. I was 16 years old. I remember I'd told my sister when he won 1968 he would run again in 1972, I would be old enough to vote for him then. The next morning we got up and someone turned the tv on. We could hardly believe what had happened. I thought I couldn't believe it had happened again. It was hard for me to see Nixon as president. In 1972, I was old enough to vote but I didn't.
