It's a valid question. The Clinton campaign starts this shit and then distance themselves quickly.

It's hard for me to get my head around how Ms. Huerta can support Hillary after she evoked RFK as a reason to stay on the 2008 race against the first African American candidate leading. Delores was mywith RFK that horrible night in June of 1968 at the Ambassador East victory rally in LA.
