I went out into the kitchen hoping my mother had made me a birthday breakfast as she usually did every year, only to find that she was watching that former Attorney General, Senator Robert Kennedy gave one of his first actions to break from President Johnson and his stance on the Vietnam War. I believe that this may be the start of his push for the presidential nomination. I love the Kennedy Brothers! March 16, 1968 Today is the first day of the rest of my life. My purpose of being on this earth has come to me like an epiphany and it is all because of her the voice of one man.
I think that man will have an impact on me forever. Robert F. Kennedy announced his bid for presidency of United States of America for the Democratic Party. “l am today announcing my candidacy for the presidency of the United States,” he said. There is no better candidate to run for president than Robert Francis Kennedy. I have been watching and following his political career since the late sass. He started his career while being a leader for Civil Rights, Law and Order and Tax Reform. And his passion has leaded him to want to now lead this country to be more than it can and is capable of being.
This man’s numerous efforts have helped many racial minority families such as my own and I plan to repay him by help participate in his political campaign for in my community. Robert F. Kennedy’s campaign will bring hope and challenge to the American people troubled by discontent and violence, both at home and in the war in Vietnam. He has an agenda to bridge the gap between races, the rich and the poor, young and old and order and dissent. Robert F. Kennedy brings hope to our country. Kennedy stands by his beliefs of racial and economic Justice, non-aggression in foreign policy, decentralization of power and social improvement.
He engages with the young, such as myself and identifies with our future, suggesting that it will be equal and in union with one another. His thoughts and civil rights statements are frowned upon in the business world while he may be considered a fiscal liability to the rich and uncaring; he is considered a hero to middle class citizens such as me. April 4th, 1968 Martin Luther King, Jar. Has been assassinated and Kennedy’s campaign is about to go underway. He is in Indianapolis and scheduled to give a speech to a large crowd of Black supporters. Upon his arrival, no one has heard the ugly news of Dry.
King and you can tell that it hurt Kennedy to be the bearer of bad news. Kennedy went on ahead and informed the large black audience of King’s death, while cautioning them not to be “filled with hatred and distrust at the injustice of such an act, against all white people,’ for “Martin Luther King dedicated his life to love and to Justice for his fellow human beings, and he died because of that effort,” said Kennedy (Kennedy, 4 April 1968). Every major city in America had burned that night in rage of the murder of Dry. King except for Indianapolis.
Ref’s presence has surrounded this place with peace. Let’s say a prayer for a great leader that we have lost. June 5, 1968 I am so excited about to day. Finally my group will get to meet up with the other supporters of the Kennedy campaign because he is coming to town to give his Big Speech! Can you believe it! He won the primaries for Indiana, Nebraska and now California!! I have a feeling that this is going to be one of the biggest days in history. It saddens me to see that his dream is over. Kennedy is over. Robert F. Kennedy is no more! I Just don’t understand what Just happened.
He was Just standing there not too Eng again giving his speech at the California Democratic Primary at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angles. This is my home! Vie never been this close to the man that I have admired for such a short time now. I thought it was victory fireworks shooting off until I heard people screaming. He killed him. He Just shot and killed him. Another dream is dead. I don’t think that I can write anymore. Resources http://www. Jaybird. Org/JEFF/The-Kennedy-Family/Robert-F-Kennedy. Asps http:// reference.
