        I was 14 and at the Ambassador Hotel with my mom and a friend. We had campaigned for him, a First for all of us. It still seems surreal and a blink of time ago. 50 years. RFK would’ve made this a better nation

        Replying to @BeschlossDC

        Indiana Primary demographics shows RFK was CIA's worst nightmare. Chomsky and Counterpunch lie about this, because biggest lies are needed on the left. RFK 1968 campaign had the BIGGEST MULTIRACIAL WORKING CLASS COALITION IN US ELECTORAL HISTORY.

        My brother & his wife campaigned for Sen. Kennedy & had just gotten home from the Ambassador when they heard about the assassination. It was crushing to see one with so much promise, like his brother John, be killed so soon after Rev. King. I still mourn what might have been...
