This speech by RFK is as true today as it was in 1968.
It is easy to see that he had to die, strange that both of the good Kennedys are dead and teddie boy lives on.
I hope that someone starts this around in the "I got this in an email today" chain.
actually, I know very little about RFK, but will pay attention in the future.

Goodness, you are citing me as an expert by posting that! :)

Jesse Louis Burns AKA Jesse Jackson Jesse Jackson was born as Jesse Louis
Burns on October 8, 1941 in Greenville, SC.
Almost right after Jesse was born, his father, ran out on the family never to
return again. His mother in time remarried and in 1956, Jesse assumed the
last name of his stepfather, Jackson.
Jackson's hatred of white people started at a young age. Horace Nash, a
classmate of Jesse's recalls his contempt for White's:
"He [Jackson] made up foolish jokes about Whites, about how stupid they
were," remembers Nash. "He used to turn things around, and he actually looked
down on White people."
Jesse Jackson admitted in a November 1969 "Life" magazine interview that when
he worked during the 1950's as a waiter in a Greenville, South Carolina hotel
he spat into the soups and salads of White customers. "[Spitting into the
food] gave me a psychological gratification," Jackson said.
In 1959, Big Jesse was admitted to the University of Illinois, only to
transfer to North Carolina A&T University in 1961. Jesse Jackson graduated
from NC A&T in 1964, near the bottom of his class.
He went to the Chicago Theological Seminary in 1964, but never finished.
Jesse Jackson in 1963 married Jacqueline Lavinia Brown and had five children,
Sanitita Jackson, Congressman Jesse Louis Jackson, Jr., Jonathan Jackson,
Yusef DuBois Jackson, and Jacqueline Lavinia Jackson.
Also in 1963, Jesse Jackson was arrested in Greensboro, SC after trying to
get blacks to riot and disturb the peace.
During the 1960's Jesse Jackson became a leader of the Black Panther
movement
out of Chicago. Jackson was hired in 1965 by Martin Luther King, Jr. to be a
full time worker on the communist lead black disruptions during that time
period.
In 1966, King Jesse became Head of the Operation Breadbasket, a militant
black organization that was in the guise of a food bank.
He claimed in 1968 to be right next to Martin Luther King, Jr. when he was
assassinated, but other eyewitnesses and pictures dispute that claim.
Jackson founded PUSH, another black militant organization in 1971. That group
today still exists within Jackson's "Rainbow Coalition".
In 1984, King Jesse became the first black to run a semi-serious campaign for
President. Although it was a total failure, he was able to divide the
Democratic party so much; Ronald Reagan won every state in the Union during
the general election except for Walter Mondale's home state of Minnesota.
He would run again in 1988, and had a little bit better success but still the
Republicans trounced the Democrats in the General Election. Ever since then,
the Democrats have been urging Jackson not to run for President.
In 1984, Jackson also anointed himself God over the his own group, the
Rainbow Coalition, a combination of communist, gays, blacks and liberal
trash. Jesse Jackson kissed up to Communist Fidel Castro and was able to get
the release of American prisoners in Cuba.
Jesse Jackson was elected Shadow Senator of Washington, DC in 1990, a
position he holds today, although he rarely ever shows up in Congress for any
work.
In 1998, the NAACP snubbed Jesse Jackson when they anointed Kwasi Mfume
President and not Jackson. Jesse Jackson has a secret war going on with them
ever since. His latest was trying to upstage the NAACP's boycott of South
Carolina, with one of his own from Georgia. Needless to say, no one cared.
Today Jesse Jackson is a race hustler, talk show host for CNN, President of
the Rainbow Communist Coalition, and continues to fight for the rights of
black felons and thugs worldwide.
