Robert "Bobby" Kennedy never made it to the White House. He was shot shortly after his nomination to the 1968 Democratic Presidential ticket. His brother President John F. Kennedy was assassinated earlier that decade in 1963.

Who won the democratic presidential primary in California in1968?

The Democratic Party's nominee for U.S. President in 1968 was the incumbent Vice President, Hubert Humphrey.In 1968, the California Democratic primary, held in June of that year saw, Robert F. Kennedy win that election. That same night he was assassinated. This Kennedy was the brother of former US President John F. Kennedy. RFK had strong views on how to end the Vietnam War. US history may have had a different look had Robert Kennedy continue and win the 1968 US Presidential election. This of course is speculation. How & by what means Robert Kennedy would have ended that war could have never been accurately predicted. It should be noted as an example that President Lyndon B. Johnson had run as a "peace" candidate in the 1964 US Presidential election. The Vietnam War grew larger under LBJ.

John died while President of the United States and Robert died while campaigning to become President. Edward was US Senator and tried to become President, but never accomplished that feat.
