Another worthy read by Mr. DiEugenio. A rather interesting review of the new Tate/Johnson book.
Sadly, the legal handling of this case during the aftermath of RFK's assassination equates essentially into a miscarriage of justice to say the least. Pretty sad day for America when a former top law enforcement official in the nation cannot even get an ounce of justice.
That said, with no offense to his older brother, John, it was RFK who was the most calculating sibling of the two. Even without Texas's 24 electoral votes, a Kennedy-Symington ticket would have still garnered enough to win the 270 electoral votes to win in 1960. Tossing Texas into Nixon's column would have had Nixon finish at 245 total electoral votes, while Kennedy-Symington would have secured 279, nine more than needed.
So long, Bobby----->
