        Been watching CNN's American Dynasties about the Kennedys. Am reminded that Bobby Kennedy was the backbone and brains behind JFK. #unpopularopinion

        I had supported LBJ initially, and his stance on Civil Rights was courageous. As the war in Vietnam wore on, I became angry with him. Will never forget Perry Mason interrupted w/LBJ’s brief announcement. It was on my birthday.

        LBJ did a lot of great things on the domestic front but failed to connect the fact that foreign wars drain the domestic spirit and kill its sons.

        I think he would have been awesome. What a loss. He seemed to begin to really understand some of America’s problems.

        I was on a street corner in Muncie Indiana, waiting for an appearance he was making there when Martin Luther King was killed, he remained in Indianapolis gave his speech to those assembled and calmed a very bereaved community. I never got to see him, before he was killed.

        😰 We will never forget Bobby. He died on my 18th birthday. My hs graduation was 2 days later. It was a nightmare. 😔

        One of my favorite quotes when his coffin was passing a black family watching for a road, a reporter asked him if he knew Bobby , he said no, but he knew me.

        Let's not whitewash the fact that Robert Kennedy, along with Roy Cohen, he helped Joe McCarthy ruin a lot of lives!
