      RFK still faced a very steep uphill battle to the Democratic nomination even before his assassination. He was gaining steam in the primaries, but in 1968 party bosses still largely ran the nominating process and primaries were not nearly as important when it came to selecting a candidate. Humphrey was the overwhelming favorite of the Dem establishment and still probably would have been given the nomination over Kennedy.

    • @declannewton2556
      @declannewton2556 5 лет назад +10

      Severely doubt RFK would come close to winning the elections if nominated by the Democrats.
      In the original timeline, Vice President Hubert Humphrey was the Democratic nominee that year. Humphrey was Northern Democrat liberal who stood up against Southern Democrats in the convention and for civil rights.
      This helped his destruction at the electoral college to Richard Nixon who was to the right of Humphrey on the political spectrum.
      Considering RFK was more liberal that Humphrey, he wouldn't stand a chance against Nixon.

      I think because Catholics think in their minds that Jesus will listen to his earthly mother in answering prayers and that He will take them to the father but theirs 1 mediator and that's Him

    It’s fascinating, Martin Scorsese said that the 60s that’s reflected upon in America really started after JFK’s death - when the sex, drugs and rock’n’roll kicked in.
    Before this the early 60s resembled the 50s greatly, and the assassination was a kind of wake-up call. Fascinating.

      The Soviets rejected the first offer, JFK proposed it again 1963 the Soviets had not responded by the time of his murder. Soviet Premier Khrushchev wrote in his memoirs that he was planning to accept the offer, but it ended with JFK's death . Khrushchev was pushed out the following year. He was thought by the fellow apparatchik to be weak leader with some kind of man crush on JFK.

      liz gaughan Kruschev had a stronger personality than Kennedy and had his own agenda of control over the Soviet block. Further, in the first instance, Russia seems to have captured better German scientists, to lead in the space race.
      Cooperation would have been likely with Gorbachev, but then we had Reagan. Believe this scenario would require two political moderates. Albeit, Russia does take astronauts from manned launch incapable countries to the international space station.

      Idk about that... this actually seems a bit worse... granted the Vietnam War would have been a good thing to not be involved in for us, but then we wouldnt have learned our lesson to not be so gung-ho about getting 'boots on the ground'.. thus would have likely made one of the later wars we had a hand in to be far more bloody and involved than should have been..
      Plus desegregation and such would have come much later and thus likely would have be bad news for both minorities and women...
      There's a fair amount of things that likely would have made a better world than we are now... but its probably an even spread.

      Which many believe his firm stance on the fixing the trade balance to keep the dollar fixed around 35$/ounce of gold.
      He had just witnessed 20 years prior the day the loss of value of the dollar, for the sake of other countries. He believed the US should maintain 40% of the global gold reserves, what do you think the international central banks thought about that?
      It would have limited their power and authority in the global community.

    First of all, Kennedy planned on removing Johnson from the 1964 ticket, so it's likely that Johnson would not have run in 1968. It is likely that had Kennedy lived and served a full 8 years, that Bobby Kennedy would have run against Nixon in 1968. Depending on how much JFK has upset the southern apple cart with his anti-segregationist policies would have determined whether or not RFK could have carried the south as he was much farther to the left than was JFK.

      eV01ve Actually you are incorrect, even if the attempt happened with gunshots, it’d not be recorded as Russians because the investigation would have led to the same person. The explosion is a way very different attempt at killing JFK. They had already got Vanya, so they thought she was Russian because she spoke Russian too. Judging by that, they would make the assumption without any regard. With them not knowing Vanya isn’t a Russian, it’d just be that, but because gunshots are different from explosions and they’d already been investigating Vanya, they would investigate the gunshot, find the same person guilty, and no nuclear apocalypse.

Better question what if the razed Constantinople or what if the 4th crusade never happened.
      Tokugawa Bakfu victory was possible however the result would be very similar a reformed modernized japan where a new westernized government took over and used the emperor to ban the way for a nationalistic japan.

Kennedy who pushed for the Civil Rights Act and everything he stood for. Johnson WAITED till JFK's assassination to rob him of his credit! LBJ was a racist who was all for Segregation and dragged us further into Vietnam. It was JFK who wanted to put a man on the moon, not Lyndon!
      John F. Kennedy was a great man and leader. JFK was everything Lyndon B. Johnson was not. Lyndon ever only did ONE REAL GOOD THING under his belt, and that was to establish the Public Broadcasting Act which created PBS! That was it. John F. Kennedy didn't deserve to die so young, at 46 years old! He did NOT. And oh, screw LBJ!

She was in her first year of college and had been in lecture when another student came running into the auditorium yelling "the President has been shot and killed!" - everybody left. She said she ran out of the auditorium and to her boyfriend at the time. They both hugged and she asked him, "what do we do now?". That has always stuck with me, it's so haunting.

    Here's something worth mentioning:
    The USA and the USSR had planned a joint mission to the moon, the only reason it didn't happen was because Kennedy died before the mission happened and the USSR didn't trust Johnson. So I think that the Cold War would've ended much quicker.

    • @ropeadopedope
      @ropeadopedope 9 лет назад +6

      +GlitchyShadow13 The idea was never really taken seriously by either the Soviet foreign administration or Congress. And even if we did manage to man a joint mission to the moon, that wouldn't remedy the deep political differences and scare mongering on both sides. The only way for the Cold War to end is for one side to collapse, and in almost all scenarios, that's the Soviet Union. That's just my two cents.

    That’s a crazy fact JFK was more famous and known dead than when he was alive. The fact that Johnson was more on top of his game and had more influence than JFK himself it’s because he had been in politics and developed influence like JFK could not even dreamed of. I also heard that in reality Kennedy did not really care too much about the Civil Rights Movement. Although JFK was a good president and a president of the people I guess him surviving living would not have been any better as we see these true facts.

      The Germans would win, there was a PB&J shortage on the western front in 1944. Allies knew that the Germans had Sandwiches, so they quickly pushed at captured many German towns. With no PB&J, the Germans would've won since the Allies would've had a different meal and would fight with no purpose except to kill the Germans. Although, PB&J dated back before the Roman Empire. Historians believed that the Sandwich made the Roman Empire grew. If the Romans never created it, the Pics would've probably won the war and European would've been different. Catholicism wouldn't exist, the World Wars never happened, and so many others.

      RockJockey Sure, but the order as I read it didn't seem to leave much wiggle room for other interpretations.

      If Deez Nuts won the election, it would be a very scary time. Thousands of Harambe supporters and Pepe the Frog supporters would all protest at the same time on the night of the election, then get into a riot as both sides brawled on the streets. During the commotion, The Triggered Umbrella Membership of Bitches, Liberals, and Retards (T.U.M.B.L.R.) would dissolve, glad that Pepe did not win the election.
      Within months, President Nuts would get into conflict with Russian President Cyka Blyat over the Syrian civil war, as Allahu Akbars would wreak havok globally. As the presidency of Nuts continued on, more memes would rise and create opposition to the administration, which relies on outdated policies similar to that of the long-dead President Hampton T. Hamster. At the same time, a revolution occurs in Russia, and President Cyka Blyat is assassinated after he failed to buy a P90 and Rush B. He is replaced by Cheeki Breeki, who crushes the rebellion with his sick hardbass beats. At the same time, a second refugee crisis sparks in Uganda, suffering from the worst famine seen in history because Big Smoke ate all their Number 9 reserves. Europe is flooded with Ugandan refugees who don't know the wae. This builds up massive tension with right-wing nationalism, which boils over after a European Uber driver shrieks at a Ugandan refugee woman to get out of his car.
      This alarming rise in European right-wing nationalism also gives rise to the Pepe supporters in America. After a statue of a Confederate war hero was proposed to be taken down, Pepe supporters would flood the streets, causing the T.U.M.B.L.R. to reform, uniting with Antifa. Unlike in our timeline, this would escalate into a bloody battle after Antifa began using Falcon Pawnches to counter the Pepe supporters, who retaliate by opening fire with their MAK1647 Americoviet assault guns. This causes the government to ban assault everything, sparking widespread criticism.
      Across the sea, Russian President Breeki has made his hatred of America and President Nuts very clear. Using a recent Allahu Akbar attack on a Soviet base as an excuse, Breeki uses his hardbass to nuke the fuck out of the United States until all that remains are dead memes, something the nation's top Rick and Morty fans warned us about for years. Nuts responds by sending Big Smoke to eat all of the nukes. However, this fails when the Ugandan refugees find da wae and kill Big Smoke. Nuts, in a last ditch effort to go out with a bang, prepares a Who Would Win, but is too late. The hardbass reaches the US, and we all die as dope Russian beats rain down and destroy our eardrums. They say that afterwards, Breeki switches the record to an earrape of the USSR anthem, causing the entire universe to explode from the overmassive bass in it.
