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.      |

David Anthony Kennedy was 13 years old when he witnessed his father's assassination while watching television in his hotel room. He never fully recovered from the shock and went from an introverted adolescence to a troubled youth increasingly experimenting with drugs and alcohol. He was in and out of rehabilitation centers at least 5 times and was arrested for drunk driving twice. It was after being released from St. Mary's Rehabilitation Center and flying to Florida for a family gathering that he was found dead in his hotel room of an overdose of cocaine and Demerol. | ||||||||||||
