Robert Kennedy is shot dead

40 years ago, Senator Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles. Amidst the sturm und drang of the campaigns, his memory seems buried. How many people will comment on it? Will the media mention it? His younger brother, Ted Kennedy, is now ill. Will there be any correlation?

Of course, some groups of neocons would rather Camelot not be brought up any more than it has to be: I wonder which megachurches are hosting memorials? Where are they and what, pray tell, are their demographics? Could be a small research project for someone.
