their needs and their aspirations. so part of it really was their ambition. >> he went to mississippi to see the worst poverty of all. >> i've never had a job. >> how long ago? >> about 15 months ago. >> we went down there together to mississippi, and he saw people without income. he saw grandmothers and mothers who could not provide breakfast or even lunch for their children. >> he said to me i've been in third world place, and i've never seen anything like this. it was so shocking to see that kind of thing in the united states. >> he spent time in the inner cities and was moved by those experiences and became more and more an advocate for the disposed. >> he had a sense of touch. he could rub a kid's cheek or try to get a child to respond. >> what do you like reading? >> and that a very different sense of the tough bobby kennedy that i had known before his brother's death.

mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong and repairs the error. the only sin is pride. >> bobby was being seen increasingly as a figure around whom the left could rally that's going to challenge lyndon johnson. >> in 1968, there is a meeting at bobby kennedy's house to discuss the possibility of him running for the presidency. >> at that time, he was having this debate within himself. >> he didn't want to be seen as just running against lyndon johnson out of bitterness. >> all right. >> i caught you, daddy. >> also, he knew enough about politics that it's hard to run against a sitting president. >> bobby was insecure.

bobby was riddled with doubts. but his wife believed that she was -- he was a great man fulfilling his destiny and he ought to be president. she gets the kids to paint on the sheet, "run beaubrun." >> on march 16th, 1968, robert kennedy addresses the nation from the very same room on capitol hill where john f. kennedy announced his candidacy eight years earlier. >> i run for the presidency because i want the democratic party and the united states of america to stand for hope instead of despair. >> ethel, she believed that this would be the first stepping stone of getting the white house restored rightfully to the kennedy family. and that was hard for jackie to hear. she would say i just fear that what happened to jack will

they rip off his tie. they take his shoes. >> like the president of the united states, i'm going to work for those who are poor, those who -- whether they be white or black. >> he had a soft spot that had been unveiled. he was much more open to people. he was much warmer, and that comes out on the campaign trail. >> i'm going to talk about the problems of race and the problems of the city and it's not a light subject. >> there was a sense of urgency exami and a sense that the world was kind of coming apart and that he and this campaign were about trying to repair the world. >> he brought an energy, he brought a determination to do what is right. >> it wasn't exactly a well-planned campaign. it was more of a moral movement, and people were very excited about that. >> you must get a hustle and bustle on up there.

>> his sister eunice and the rest of the family are never far away. >> thank you very much for coming today. glad to see you. and you. >> bobby's rival for the nomination are president johnson and eugene mccarthy, a senator from minnesota. but just 15 days into bobby's campaign, johnson makes a shocking announcement. >> i will not accept the nomination of my party for another term as your president. >> as angry protests mount over the war in vietnam, johnson quits the race in favor of his vice-president hugh bert humphrey. >> hugh bert humphrey has the establishment behind him. what bobby has is the imagination of the american people, the idea that you could restore the kennedy legacy and the kennedy dynasty. >> four days after johnson's announcement, bobby heads to a

campaign rally in indianapolis. on the way he is told that the reverend dr. martin luther king, jr., has been shot. >> when he arrived in indianapolis, the authorities there asked him not to go. the crowd hadn't yet learned that king had been killed. there were riots erupting elsewhere in response to it and they were worried about his safety. and he insisted ongoing. >> the police tell him, you can't go there. the mayor of the city says you can't go there. and he said, you know? i can go in there with my whole family and sleep in a tent on the street. and be perfectly safe. and if the chief of police can't do that, that's his problem. >> he drives into the black ghetto in indianapolis. he jumps up on the back of a flatbed pickup truck.

>> i have some very sad news for all of you, and i think sad news for all of our fellow citizens and people who love peace all over the world. and that is that martin luther king was shot and was killed tonight. >> there was this anguished reaction in the crowd, and he starts the speech. >> for those of you who are black and are attempted to be filled with hatred and mistrust of the injustice of such an act against all white people, i would only say that i can also feel in my own heart the same kind of feeling. i had a member of my family killed, but he was killed by a

white man. >> the power of that revelation, that opening for him, they knew what he was doing and they responded to him. >> even in our sleep -- >> one of the only cities in america that didn't riot that night was indianapolis. and the reason was robert francis kennedy. >> what we need in the united states is not violence. >> he spoke to people's incredible pain. he had the ability to bring different sides together. >> of all the kennedys, i think bobby kennedy evolves the most, and in a way his heart break opens him up to the heart break of the world. >> on june 4, 1968, bobby wins

the critical california primary. >> i thank all of you who made this possible this evening, all of the effort that you made. >> he won with a coalition that he sought, of black people, of brown people, of progressives, and it looked as if he was on the path to the nomination. >> after years in jack's shadow, bobby becomes a political force in his own right. >> the campaign was really rolling. i think we were very relaxed and confident. >> move back! move back! >> next on american dynasties, the kennedys. >> from my dad, the overwhelming burden to succeed was crushing. >> ted has too much to drink and gets into the car with a young

woman. >> he took a radically wrong turn. >> rescue units marshalled all resources. >> they called me to say that john kennedy's plane is missing. >> how much tragedy, how much death can one family take? one of the most powerful men on earth holds a position that has existed for nearly 2000 years. as the world changes and faith evolves, his authority remains. what began with one apostle has become 1.2 billion followers under one man. he is the head of the catholic church, the pope. and this is his path to power.
