[madjack18]

"...I can also feel in my own heart the same kind of feeling. I had a member of my family killed, but he was killed by a white man..."

[jamesrledwith]

Amazing. Truth.



[Striped27]

Robert Kennedy to use his own awful experience to relate to the people show what an amazing man of character and heart he was

[dude6057]

robert kennedy didn't have this speech prepared, he spoke all this on the fly. its trully amazing

[mjispureofheart]

"Anybody here seen my old friend Martin? Can you tell me where he's gone? Freed a lot of people. But it seems the good, they die young."

"Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby? Can you tell me where he's gone? Anybody here seen my old friend John? Can you tell me where he's gone?" No doubt the three of them are leaders in heaven,

You know... this was all made up on the spot. I can tell why my speech teacher reccomended this, MLK, and Reagan as great references...

[kooljsl]

the greatest non-president America ever had.

[stackingswivel]

Yes, great great speech and no Teleprompters either..

God Bless Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King Junior. We would have been a better country had Bobby become President.

[follownicholas]

This speech makes me cry so much. :'-( First JFK then MLK then Bobby. Three great visionaries whose influence was abruptly ended by men behind the curtain. Now it is our responsibility to step up to take their place. If we don't then this country will quickly be owned by the men behind the curtain.

To tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world

[Divisiblites702]

there will never be a person like him. ever. :(

[eggheadAKAspensley]

That must of been so hard on Black America. Such injustice.

Good speech by Bobby Kennedy. He had a very important job. Did it well.

first time i saw this video i cried.it was in 2004. what could have been.

[moishefriedman]

Thanks for posting. I get teary-eyed every time I hear this speech, and I've listened to it many times. There was simply no one like him in the last 50 years, and I mourn his loss, as I do MLK's. And I can't help myself but to play the "if only" game in my head, as useless as that is. If only they had survived. With RFK as President, MLK in a prominent active Civil Rights advocacy role, what a country this would have been... But again, thank you for posting this.

.thank you to all who strive and fought and those who have died so we can still have choice of where we want to go...

Truly sad and horribly tragic how America killed its own group of true game changers and now we languish in a dribble of what might have been a great storm of revolution! Sadly now and possibly forever we sit and wonder what might have been and what will be.
