OP
The energy of our thoughts, words and deeds resonate. I agree with RFK and Zinn.

(174 posts)1. I remember when RFK was running for President
He was making a campaign stop in my college town. RFK was very popular among the students as he was for ending the US involvement in Viet Nam. My good friend was disappointed that he was unable to go to the rally as it was at the same time as one of his classes & the professor gave a strict warning to the students to attend class & not go see/hear Kennedy. That good friend has since been won over by the constant drumbeat from Fox News and has re-written his feelings towards RFK - of course, they are now negative.
