| 1. RFK and the 68 campaign - What If? |
|
There was a novel that came out back in the summer called "Disturbance of Fate" (I think). It was a 'what if' that envisioned RFK going ahead to the Chicago convention, working out a deal with Daley to avert the disastrous riots that plagued the Democrats, and RFK beating Nixon to become president in 1968, with re-election in 1972. And then that's where the "fun" started. Quite an interesting read if y'all have the time. Almost like "Promises to Keep" by George Berneau about JFK surviving Dallas in 1963.
