In the spring of 1968, Democrats were fed up with Lyndon Johnson who read the tea leaves & bailed after Eugene McCarthy beat him in the NH primary. He died only four plus years later.
The nomination & the Presidency were RFK’s for the taking until fate intervened. Hubert Humphrey never stood a chance.
I went to a rally Robert Kennedy had about two weeks before he got killed.
Was at Valley Junior College in N.Hollywood,VanNuys.
