As I vainly tried to advise AP Archive, this video was NOT shot at South Dakota, but rather at Eppley Field, Omaha, Neb. Also, it includes Col. (later Sen.) John Glenn (beginning at 01:57), who recently died. Paul Lee Historian

Any idea where to find footage of Senator Kennedy at Pine Ridge, April '68? There's a story I read recently about him and a young man named Christopher Pretty Boy; one of the articles mentioned he could be seen holding Kennedy's hand in the footage as they walked around that day. I'd very much like to see that, if it exists

@@termeownator Yes, you can see this footage in Charles Guggenheim's 1968 documentary, "Robert Kennedy Remembered," here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oaaH2a5yldy1cdI.html (beginning @ 16:47)

@@pauldarwinlee hey man, thank you so much. I meant to thank you back 4 months ago, don't know how you managed that so quick, very impressive. That whole documentary is great, a lot of footage I've never seen any place else. Hey, do you have any idea by chance where I could find footage (if there is any) or a newspaper article where Sen. McCarthy challenges Kennedy to a debate, end of April, 1968 or earlier? I know it's a big ask, I know there's gotta be at least a newspaper, I found one from early May that mentions that McCarthy "renewed his ongoing challenge to debate Kennedy", but I'd really like to find something from April or before if i can. Thanks again for your help from before, and thanks in advance whether you turn anything up or not

@@termeownator I'm sure that there must be video reports of liberal Democratic Minnesota Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy challenging New York Sen. Robert F. Kennedy to a debate in April 1968, but I don't have the time or, frankly, the interest in finding such for you. However, McCarthy issued a debate challenge during a split-screen appearance with Kennedy during CBS News's coverage of the latter's win of the Indiana primary on May 7, 1968, hosted by anchor Walter Cronkite. (Kennedy was furious that CBS News arranged this joint appearance without his permission.) McCarthy does it about here at about 24:33: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i2uhw5KEqafKgdo.html With all due respect, I won't answer any more questions. Thanx, and Happy Holidays.

He is the man. He did so many great things
