A lot of these Senators are old enough to remember RFK. [View all]

I was a child when he was killed, but I have read a lot about him and seen a lot of video clips. He was a passionate man, full of energy and life. He enthusiastically supported President Kennedy. He could also be abrasive and stubborn.

What I see in his son are some of the same characteristics, but inverted. He is passionate about things that are untrue. He is delusional. He seems to be so badly damaged that there is no hope in reasoning with him. It is a tragedy that he does not look to his father and his uncles.
