Hello, Lauren. Please. "Butt in" all you like.
I, too, believe Bobby knew the who and the why. If the back-channel and treason was put before him as why his brother was now dead, he had to have felt a great guilt for his participation in those events. Perhaps the back-channel was even his idea.
So, does he:
1) Go along with the official version - President Kennedy was killed by a crazy lone-gunman.
2) Tell the public what he knows - his brother was killed for negotiating with the Soviets and Cubans behind the backs of national security? See, there is no way he wins that battle. Too much would have been aligned against him. He would have been eaten alive.
I've often wondered why Bobby ever decided to run for the presidency. He had to know there was no way he would be allowed to get there.
Survivor's guilt?
