RFK was running on anti-war platform. Certainly most of the losses suffered in the four years nixon was president wouldnt have occurred. But given that, he would have had to work hard to reestablish american credibility around the world.
It is hard to say how he would have evolved. He would have reacted to 9/11 like bush. He would have advocated ruthlessly going after terrorists. He may not have supported iraq but if he had and he was president heads would have rolled regarding what seems to be the bad intelligence re:wmds. BTW Bush was really bad on wmds yesterday. He should never have brought up the kaye report and talked to that issue. It is enough to say that it is still unclear where they are if they existed at all. Are they in syria? Did saddam actually destroy them and not tell anyone? That seemed so absurd but perhaps it was not given that sadam himself is an absurd character. Or did the scientists lie to saddam telling him what they thought he wanted to hear??? It would have been better to go there than try to justify the war on wmd grounds. MIke
