1. RFK was one of the ...
...best examples of a politician who grew to become a prophet. Oh, he was such an Irish tribal leader, who took the hero's journey into the deep, dark forest after his brother's death, and returned with the message of higher meaning for the masses.
Please keep in mind that the significant thing about this great family is their lives, not their deaths. We have Kennedys who are able to represent this generation! Robert, Jr. is a good and decent man.
