        My cynical, "dear god what is up with this country" response is "Unfortunately, apparently they were not realistic." Kind of amazing since two of the "demands" were "stop killing us" and "let us vote." Country still says "nope, not possible, sorry." Sickening.

        I should have said "their" demands to make it clear I'm not coopting their voice. Damn lack of edits on tweets.

        The actual article is titled “Power Structure, Integration, Militancy, Freedom Now” & discusses the dilemma faced by civil rights leadership (black AND white)between the rhetoric of revolution & the mechanism of realizable change. It’s a laughably dated read, but hello, Bernie.

        Teddy White's next piece in LIFE would be about Camelot.

        Wrong Ted. JFK'S speech writer was Ted Sorensen.

        Right Ted. The article about Camelot was written by Theodore H. White, author of "The Making of the President 1960" and a former Time-LIFE staffer.

        Ironically, this could be the campaign theme for @cindyhydesmith today... "Negro Demands: Are they realistic?" @espyforsenate #HydeSmith #publichanging

        How ironic- a bit weird- that Staubach went on to play in Dallas.

        Did anyone else EVER refer to Roger Staubach as the "Houdini of the Backfield" ???
