Nixon without any hesitation whatsoever. I might have been a swing voter if it had been Nixon vs. RFK though.

Nixon, but Wallace's inspiring message of state's rights was really appealing to me back in 1968.

Humphrey.  Though my first choice would've been Bobby Kennedy, Hubert Humphrey was a good man.

Sorta like this...

If without Hindsight...Nixon...no question...with hindsight...Nixon, but with several doubts and hope for a change in the ultimate outcome.

I would have probably been so annoyed that McCarthy nor Kennedy was a nominee that I might have stayed home.

Honestly, I was born 19 years after, so I don't know.

What's more important: states rights or human rights? I'll take the latter, personally.

Probably Nixon, though with a lot of hesitation. If it was RFK definitely Nixon - I have never and will never vote for a Kennedy.
