American Civilization

Robert Kennedy died.  That was 26 hours after he was shot in Los Angeles, California.  He had just won the California primary in his bid to become the Democratic Party nominee for the presidency when he was assassinated.

Let’s hope history does NOT repeat itself.  When I listened to people’s responses to the elevation of Barack Obama to this year’s Democratic candidate for the presidency, I was struck by how many people - especially African-Americans - are very concerned for the safety of Obama and his family.
