I sincerely believe that Mr. Kennedy was a "real Democrat" and a great President who advocated social justice at home and a realistic stance concerning foreign affairs. He supported the use of military forces in Vietnam especially thru the increased growth of Special Forces (Green Berets)-teachers as well as fighters. He was not a narrow minded "ideological" peacenik who shut his mind to world events. How tragic for the USA that his life was ended so soon before his full potential was reached. Others may hold other opinions-so be it. What is yours?
