Aantekeningen - Robert F. Kennedy was intense and introverted with a black-and-white
philosophy of life. Things, ideas and people were either good or evil
and his purpose was to expiate the evil. Very religious, at one point
he considered entering the priesthood. After graduation from Harvard
University and the University of Virginia Law School, he worked for
McCarthy's subcommittee on internal security and then for the
committee of inquiry into racketeering and corruption in the labor
movement. Based on these hearings he wrote his book on union
corruption, The Enemy Within. Bobby played an instrumental part in
Jack's presidential election, and was subsequently appointed Attorney
General despite adverse public reaction. He presided over the
Department of Justice for 44 months, gaining respect as he dealt
firmly with civil rights and labor issues. After JFK's assassination
Bobby became the head of the Kennedy clan and the inheritor of the
Kennedy legacy. Elected to the Senate from New York in 1964, he used
that office to gear up for a 1968 presidential bid. He became the
champion of the dispossessed and tried to forge a coalition of the
young, the poor, blacks and intellectuals. He was well on his way to
the nomination when he was assassinated by Sirhan Bishara Sirhan June
5, 1968.
