I just have to object: in this world, Nixon would probably be the 7th best Presidentafter FDR, Lincoln, Washington, TR, LBJ, and Truman.
Correct on both counts. Until he was 13 Bobby lived in Riverdale before being sent back to Mass for boarding school and Harvard, then moved to DC in '52 before buying Hickory Hill in Virginia from Jack in '56. Of course that includes Charlottesville as well in the late '40s. Somewhat analogous to Bush: not their state of birth but lived there long enough to call it their home state. Hillary was a carpetbagger, not RFK. The only Kennedy who can claim unambiguous NY status of that generation is Jackie.
RogueBeaver will make a post for this if and when he wants, just leave the thread be. Just because you want to see this wrapped up does not oblige RB to come back just for your sake. He is the author, and he will do what he pleases with this.I've got to know Plumber. I got to know what would've happened. Only clue I have is the phrase "Tinderbox Tehran." Just need closure. That's all. What do you think would've happened, Plumber?
