Bobby Kennedy managed to survive and to win the Democratic nomination.

Who won ?

And in 1972, did a ever-losing Nixon manage to beat a corrupt, authoritarian and ineffective Bobby ?

How I wish it had happened. Kennedy would have got us out of Vietnam and made sure that racial equality wasn't flawed as it is today. He would have made a good president.
A bit optimistic, don't you think?
Maybe true for racial relations, but very unsure for Vietnam. And I think his governing behaviour would have been very disappointing: he would have been lonely and on his own, unable to delegate or simply discuss with aides, secretaries or Congress.

Reality would have been back quite quickly...

And maybe a new inquiry on the assassination of JFK which would have revealed as flawed as the previous one.

RFK was fascinating and is still fascinating just because he was never president.
