    btw you seen the emilio estevez film, bobby? if not you should. tis good.
    and whilst a fictionalisation is still worth a look. though tis less about bobby kennedy than it is about people at the ambassador on the day.

    Yeah I own the movie Bobby. I bought it when it came out. It was ok. Was hoping it would have more to do with Bobby though......

    That was interesting. So it was a pre-arranged route. Ok, but what about this:

    eyewitness reports are notoriously inconclusive, not to mention suspect due to trauma. thats why irrefutable physical evidence is so important.
    can you imagine being in that kitchen when kennedy was shot? talk about pandemonium and disbelief. you hear a gunshot, instinctually you duck and cover,no?
    hear my name
    take a good look

    true. but how do you explain the fact that sirhan sirhan was infront of him the whole time, yet the fatal shot was fired from behind?

    i can't. i wasn't there. someone is covering someone's arse. i know that. i am of the opinion that kennedy was shot by nefarious means by someone inside the US, if you know what i mean. he was a dangerous man to have in the white house. he'd proven that during his brother's term. to have robert kennedy not only in the white house, but in charge of the joint, would have made a whole lot of people mighty uncomfortable

    yeah but did you know that at the time he was killed, he was significantly behind Hubert Humphrey in delegates? He might not have even secured the nomination. So why kill him?

    It would have been very interesting if he had lived and gotten the nomination and gone up against Richard Nixon. Can you imagine if Dick lost again, to another Kennedy!? :D

    yeah yeah, you are aware of the shenanigans it took to get JFK into the white house, right? joe kennedy would have stopped at nothing to get another of his boys that presidency. and this one was better than the last one, imo.
    anyhoo it would have been brilliant if nixon lost to a kennedy ...again. :D:D
