What We Lost, 40 Years Ago Tonight


We all wonder what might have been. I try to resist sentimentality. (I admit I'm not completely successful at that.) We have to learn from Bobby Kennedy. We have to help, in some way, to carry on his legacy, his wisdom and -- yes -- his hope.

The dialogue in this video is his eulogy, given at St. Patrick's Cathedral by Ted Kennedy. In case it's not completely clear, the bulk of it is Ted reading from Bobby's famous "Day of Affirmation Address."




And this is a short video of his final journey home.
