bobby -- bobby -- the minorities go fight the war in vietnam. getting on the plane to indianapolis, dr. king was killed. those were the days when you waited for the evening news to find out what was going on. people didn't know. and the police would not go in with him because it was a tough neighborhood. he is with john lewis and people like that and he walked up onto a flatbed truck onto a crowd that didn't know that. i'm listening to it and he said to the guy next to them, do they know yet? history in the african-american community has been shot by a white guy in the guy says no. he had to tell a crowd of people who were so enthusiastic to see him that there other and perhaps king, hero, martin luther had just been shot. bobby had to tell him. here is a relatively small white guy walking into a crowd of angry african-american people, they are going to be angry, and riding had begun to break out across the country and bobby told him about it. andmember watching it thinking, how awkward what he said was and it was so soulful. he clearly was kill

and now she's losing bobby. the same way that jackie lost jack. >> senator robert francis kennedy died at 1:44 a.m. today, june 6th, 1968. >> in the morning my brother joe came in and said, you know, he's gone. so then that afternoon we took him back to new york. >> you can hear the airplane. the casket half way out of the door of the airplane. >> the great tragedy of this moment is that we actually never get to see what bobby kennedy would have been. able to accomplish. >> he would have been one of the most experienced men to occupy the american presidency since its founding. >> jacqueline kennedy behind her, mrs. edward kennedy. >> the sense of hope for the country was ending in bobby kennedy, who tapped it in a way not even his brother did. >> it's a pin in a balloon. it's gone. feel the clarity of non-drowsy claritin and relief from symptoms caused by over 200 allergens. like those from buddy. because stuffed animals are clearly no substitute for real ones. feel the clarity and live claritin clear. as a mete

but i don't have is a bobby. no one has ever have a bobby except jack. he would do the signature gesture. one hat in this pocket. he would do everything like jack. they would say snap out of it. paul and i talked about it. snap out of it your brother is dead and you are alive. when i told that to them. they said good for paul. i think he tried to imitate his brother. it's for jack. they looked at it cosmically. they look in the book. everything about it they dressed . everything fit right. look at them. look at how he walks. he knew how to carry a golf club. everything he did was elegant. bobby was awkward all the time. everything they liked. they made them in the continental figure in the world. the way they launched. he could not had done better winning it. it ran up to the podium. let's go. and then they gave the concession speech so fast. the moonshine identifying with that moonshine. in the inaugural address. the new frontier. it was brilliant. it's beautiful. like hemingway at 30 different titles. these things don't happen by accident. and they alw

but i got to know bobby better. he announced for president and i think that barbara lee is right, had fate allowed him to survive, he would have been the president of the united states and what i got from chris' book was a little more of the depth of robert kennedy. of the hue -- humanity of robert kennedy, of that idealism of robert kennedy, the deep and abiding intellectual integrity that he had and displayed every day of his life. that's why we honor hum. remembering him. feeling -- him, remembering him, feeling sorry for ourselves that we did not have him as our president, he would have made such a dumps because he brought such moral commitment to that job. like all of us, he grew. we all grow and we all become more knowledgeable and more sensitive, he did that, which is the mark, of course, of a wise human being. in chris' book, i felt more the love and the depth of caring for average working people facing challenges everyday. for the farm workers in california, kerri, he would be so proud of you for keeping th

bobbi had one last area to search. the big horn mountain. >> rough, rugged, horrid terrain. out of all the wrong ways she could have gone, it would have been the worst. >> reporter: she combed shell canyon back and forth in the growing dark. nothing. >> and all that time i kept thinking, why didn't i give her that hug? why dine give her that hug? i'd have given anything just to give her one hug. >> reporter: the setting sun in montana and wyoming, it can be a glorious thing. that evening for nine discouraged pilots it was terrifying. of course, they were entirely unaware of the disaster and the drama they didn't see on the ground. >>> coming up -- that ground was here. a forbidden back country, rife with danger. >> it puts that eerie a feeling in your body, makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck. >> but this hunter seeing something even more troubling in the sky. >> so the plane is flying right into a trap? >> yep. -oh! -very nice. now i'm turning into my dad. i text in full sentences. i refer to every child

they didn't call him bobby, it was bob. man-to-man, our leader, the guy we look up to in the band of brothers is bob. i thought that was so informative to dig that stuff up. but i came across some other things that may not seem important to other people but meant a lot to me and here's one of the pieces of history i picked up in this capitol. when i got back from the peace corps in 1971 i got patronage job, barnicle had one, harry reid had one, usually capital cob was a pretty good job and i got it from wayne owens, a young mormon, aa to senator frank moss, the last liberal senator from utah. probably for a while, in fact. i don't expect one any sooner, i think we're getting mitt romney coming soon. hi, susan. so wayne owens was a young true believer in bobby kennedy. he had been the coordinator for bobby kennedy in the '68 presidential campaign in the rocky mountains. he later became the aa for senator ted kennedy when he was majority whip and he was a true believer in the kennedys and he gave me my first job coming back f

so here was bobby. so here is bobby on saturday morning, the day before st. patrick's day, march 16, in this room walking in here into this room that even now you can feel the history in this room and it had so much personal history for bobby kennedy. here was where the permanent subcommittee on investigations met in the early 1950's, where he worked for first and then against senator joseph mccarthy. here is where the rackets committee, which he really created, met here where he battled jimmy hoffa and other and this is where his beloved brother jack declared for president eight years earlier in 1960. same spot, almost the same exact words beginning his announcement. again, bobby hoped to wait four more years for his campaign. he didn't want to divide the democrats, now in three different directions -- johnson, he, and gene mccarthy. but he decided finally only that morning, actually, finally, that he had to try for president. he saw the war tearing the country apart, the young people on college campuses turning bitter, changing to drugs and disillusion and

so we know it was a young true believer, bobby kennedy and they were coordinated for bobby kennedy in the presidential campaign in the rocky mountains. he later became the florida a.a. for senator ted kennedy when he was majority whip, majority whip and he was a true believer in the kennedys and he gave me my first job coming back from the peace corps. it was not exactly what i wanted, but it was good for a while and then i would be a capitol cop, so i was doing two jobs and i can tell you, i can almost write a book about what i learned as a cop here. i learned a lot. i wrote a lot about the guys who live out in the country and are conservative and are patriotic, and they may agree with a lot of people in this room and they have a point of view and one of the old cops said to me one time. you know why the little man loves this country? there's always god. one thing i learned from the capitol police from those guys like the superintendent that cleans up the place and fixes electricity in the middle of the night. there was one democrat and one senator of always making a point of greetin

he felt that bobby was constantly undermining him and just respecting him and felt that bobby kennedy was different from jack kennedy or ted kennedy. what all went into that these feelings happen before i worked for the president. i can't comment on that. i don't know. but it was a very strange relationship. it was early april, after the president announced he was not going to run for reelection. we had bobby kennedy down at the white house. the president met with him in the cabinet room. stern, the president, lecturing bobby kennedy, on to not doing things that are going to interrupt the peace settlement. then, the two people did not have the warmest of relationships. did nothat settlement take place in 1968. >> right. >> take us back. the speech is over, you were in the white house. what was lady bird johnson thing to president johnson? what were the reactions? the president went into the --l office and perceived received and made phone calls. the governor of new york. president johnson had a warm relationship with governor rockefeller. lady bird johnson was absolutely elated. that

john lewis said bobby is learning. bob bobby has some skin in the game. all of these i wapeople that th room and they give him hell. this young kid who had been a veteran of the civil rights movement b movement bashes kennedy's head in. bobby is saying why are you treating me like this? i'm the guy that bailed all of the kids out in birmingham. can't you give me credit? no. you have to learn. bobby is in the room with jack and said you got to go on the air to get that unforgettable speech. we have got to have civil rights many this country. >> he did this because he was beat up on and then he went and pushed his brother. >> we learn through pain. you know, you have been through it. you learn through being bashed in. you go witait a minute. that guy is right. he went in. it's a dramatic scene. i actually see bobby. there's bobby saying to his brother you have to give this speech. i have this speech ready. we can do this. he says i don't know if we can do this. very iconic guy. jack knew the magic. he would be the perfect wife. we knew we put a man on the m

he felt that bobby kennedy was constantly undermining him and disrespecting him and he felt that bobby kennedy was different from either jack kennedy or ted kennedy, whom he liked each of those brothers. so, what all went into that and that feeling -- those bad feelings happened before i worked for the president and i can't comment on that, i don't know. but, it was a very strained relationship. i think it was early april, because after the president announced he was not going to run for reelection, we had bobby kennedy, and ted sorensen down to the white house and the president met with them in the cabinet room. and he was very stern with him. basically lecturing -- the president lecturing bobby kennedy on not doing things that's going to interrupt or disrupt the peace settlement in vietnam. you can tell then that the two people did not have the warmest of relationships. mr. scully: of course, that settlement did not take place in 1968. former appointment sec. jones: right. mr. scully: take us back to the evening of march 31. the speech is over. you're in the white house. paint a pict

it's a big day for joyce and bob and bobby jr in particular. it may be sunday and bobby's birthday but his new kindergarten wants to get the tot accustomed to daycare. his parents have chosen a private kindergarten based in a shopping mall there was another one closer to their apartments but they weren't able to pay the one thousand three hundred euros monthly thing. that this one is slightly less expensive bobby gets a warm welcome his father is pleased that his son likes it here. the two year old will be introduced to reading arithmetic and english. we want him to learn something because learning is fun right. and bobby is kind of like learning english so we have different apps in the i phone and i pad so careless about it and there we also download a sound. like you know. a from for us or for u.k. show because the last he joined us a lot. there home is in a prime location five people share a three room apartment joyce is an office worker bob is the manager of a solar energy firm and travels extensively often. to africa shanghai's property pr

bobby kennedy remembered that his brother john f.ason the united states was in that war in the first place ask he advised his brother to defend. it wasn't easy to decide this adventure, this was no longer in america's hinterest. and at home bobby kennedy had also changed in 1963 he urged his brother to view civil rights as a moral imperative of the presidency. there was still much work to be done in civil rights. martin luther king dies in the spring of 1968. bobby kennedy is there trying to caution people trying to counsel african-americans not to give up hope. so he was hoping to push on that front and change american policy towards vietnam. and then he wasn't given the chance. >> so then ted kennedy became the only remaining kennedy son left after the deaths of his older brothers. he faced a huge challenge of assuming the mantle of both jack and wouldnbobby and his early c was a mix of success and scandal. tell us more about that. >> ted kennedy, the kennedy brothers from the beginning thought of the presidency as some either coul

that is bobby.ost: i wanted to include what his brother said. >> my brother need not be , to be remembered simply as a good and decent man. he saw a wrong and tried to write it. he saw suffering and tried to heal it. he saw a war and tried to stop it. those who -- those of us who loved him and taken to his rest pray that what he was -- to those he touched, and who sought to touch him, some men see things as they are and say why. see things that never were and say why not? host: -- guest: i thought about that speech and you are asking earlier, i think the war would have been half as long. the vietnam veteran and the vietnam memorial would be different. i think there was a candidate who really wanted to unite people. it is so hard to do it and it is getting harder and harder to keepkeep lack and what together, young and old, the working kind, we keep talking about noncollege people as opposed to college people, what a ridiculous separation to we got to stop that but we know it it -- we know what it wa

bobby kennedy articulated as a mainstream politician. some of the interest that the social justice movement had, which is more than likely he did not even get a chance to get out the gate. he was murdered as soon as he was making his speech. so the right-wing repression that was coming, they made it clear the politics of robert kennedy, social justice, antiwar, were being repudiated. and that kind of set the tone for a very radical uprising across the country. host: we set the tone for this discussion with that news report of the death of martin luther king jr. 50 years ago this week. describe your memory of learning about the death of martin luther king jr.. remember, i was in oakland at the time. i was living in california. the black panther party headquarters was in oakland. i remember how stunned and angry black people around the country were. washington, d.c. was set on fire. there were tons of uprisings, riots, protests, the country seemed to be in a state of chaos. what was intriguing is that clearly there was an instruction to th

two months before he met with attorney general bobby kennedy who was favorably impressed. his brother president john f. kennedy was popular among black hostess. but the attorney general has been tenuous and his support for the march on washington is afraid things will turn violent. what he doesn't know is that white racists have destroyed the seventy five thousand dollars sound system set up at the lincoln memorial the hoping to provoke a violent reaction from the marchers. cames team is dismayed and angry how can they repair the damage by morning. when it was very clear that we had a disaster on our hands if the hundred thousand people gathered and there was no way to hear the speakers. i quarterly picked up the phone that he be and called bobby kennedy at home and said thank you for all that you've done to get prepared for this match but the fact is we have a major crisis now the contractor says the cables have been damaged by someone. to an extent that it can't be repaired by tomorrow and we need. bobby kennedy immediately informs the president he sends the army signal

no one other than bobby hutton was killed that night. about eight other panthers were arrested and it became a huge case. the whole country was at war. >> what happened to eldridge cleaver? >> he was arrested, sent back to prison. he was able to get out on bail through some very unusual decisions by a judge that when he went to court, no one from the state appeared. it was only eldridge and the judge. he said based on the evidence i heard, i have to take his story. he let him out on bail, which was unheard of that a black panther leader engaged with a shootout with oakland police is out on jail and was he was a candidate for president under the peace and freedom party, which was a protest party, and so what he did was run his presidential campaign across the country until it was time for him to surrender, return to prison, at which point he disappeared and showed up a few months later in havana. >> and were you with him and. >> oh, no, i didn't know where he was. he was actually -- he was in montreall. >> when did you connect with him? >

and called bobby kennedy at home. and said thank you for all that you've done to get prepared for this match but the fact is we have a major crisis down the contract says the cables have been damaged by someone. to the extent that it can't be repaired by tomorrow and we need help. bobby kennedy immediately informs the president essentially army signal corps to repair the sound system. as a precaution against possible further attacks he puts the national guard on standby . the march on washington must go ahead peacefully. king is unaware of the situation. he'll spend the night working on his speech just two blocks from the white house in the legendary willet hotel. dr king. almost every president of the united states had spent a night here in south king would not have even been allowed to stand on the front steps of such an establishment. it wasn't that long ago the blacks would fear for their life staying in even a shabby motel. americans love the american way of life to earn some money and lead a comfortable existenc

it is interesting that bobby it is interesting, bobby kennedy's evolution. kennedy says these are difficult times. king, on april 3, the night before he is assassinated, said we have some difficult days ahead of us. what he was really talking about was the way in which there was a huge gulf in between what activists and leaders felt the united states needed to do legally and politically, and what the country was willing to do. the country responds, the state responds with more political and economic oppression and in 1968, we have to remember that the omnibus crime bill is passed a couple months after king died, perhaps june 19, 1968. if i'm correct. and that crime bill really expands wiretapping and eavesdropping that the federal government is allowed to do, but also provides the state with billions of dollars in money for law enforcement that sows the seeds for mass incarceration and now that provides many given to states through the byrne grant and all the states and local municipalities that huge incentives to incarcerate african-americans and latinos an

no one of them bobby hutton was killed that night.bout eight other panthers were arrested and it became a huge case. the whole country was at war. host: what happened to eldridge cleaver. >> he was sent back to prison. he was able to get out on bail through some very unusual decisions by a judge because when he went to court, no one from the state appeared. it was only him and the judge and he said lopez on the evidence i've heard, i have to take the story and let them out on bail. it was unheard of that he would be out on bail. and he was also a candidate for president under the peace and freedom party which was a protest party. what he did was run his presidential campaign. across the country until his timeframe to surrender and return to police -- prison at which point he disappeared. he showed up a few months later in havana. host: were you with him? >> no, i did not know where he was. when did you reconnect with him after that? >> in algeria, 1969. was in the-, i united states, i was trying to figure out how to get cuba. you had
