Was going to be Bobby Kennedy’s Running Mate.
He was being vetted at the California Primary.
He had campaigned for Bobby to the Power Brokers,
saying that he would be Bobby’s experience
against MCarthy. And that he could get Bobby
out of Vietnam by 73-75. Sen Jackson was in
the VIP Lounge that evening. Bobby Kennedy
was headed through the Kitchen to the VIP Lounge
where Sen. Jackson was. Bobby was headed to a press
conference using the kitchen as a shortcut.
I just wanted you to know.
Sen Jackson came to Bobby’s side the minute
the gun was secured.
