Best candidate losing party could nominate since 1948

[Blair]

Just want to argue two points

Robert Kennedy wouldn't of been seen as 'too radical' or basically too black for the whole south. Sure you'd get southerners who'd oppose him but Kennedy is going to do better than HHH-look at the Indiana Primary in 1968-Kennedy won counties that not only had a high KKK presence but that Wallace was able to win in high numbers in 1964. Basically the Kennedy magic, his relatively tough law and order stance (look at his menace of violence speech)

Likewise Wes Clarke was an awful candidate, literally a man on a white horse. Generals in politics very rarely work (Ike was the exception not the rule) He didn't have a view on the Iraq War, he didn't have any political experience and he wasn't a good campaigner
