    Peter, Paul & Mary wrote and performed this campaign song for Eugene McCarthy, which included a dig at Robert Kennedy—50 years ago:http://youtube.com/watch?time_continue=18&v=TgKI-hytNMs …

        No question about who CIA feared more. Gene's campaign was nearly entirely middle class. The RFK Campaign is too little known. For good reasons.https://www.amazon.com/dp/1627310703/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_8DRWAbGP7VX9Z …

        I grew up with my parents playing their PP&M records all the time. I certainly never heard that one! Thanks.

        The college students in my small, very conservative home town (Abilene, TX) took over one of the districts for the Democratic Party & flipped it to McCarthy. A political activist was born, thanks to him.

        I heard Peter, Paul and Mary perform at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago 1968 in a McCarthy delegate and supporters rally at some venue downtown so probably heard this performed live. (I was a volunteer with the Connecticut delegation)

        I grew up on Peter, Paul, and Mary....my late beloved dad always said they were instrumental in his conversion from an apolitical conservative to an activist liberal Democrat.

        We hosted Mr. McCarty for a speaking engagement at Texas A&M in early 80’s. We took him to breakfast the next morning and he regaled us with some hilarious stories!

        Well I hope, PP & M realize that they were stupid and have since realized what a GREAT man RFK was. Would have been the best president ever, this is of course my opinion.

        Just 💭: you know how I’m so sure about these @ForParkland kids & their trajectory? Because I was 15 in 1968 & I remember how I felt then. I believe in them!!#EnoughIsEnough
