Here's the idea: A few months ago, I wrote a pretty bare-bones timeline called "The Spirit of '76". Essentially it dealt with Robert Kennedy waiting until 1976 to run for President. While it thought it was a good concept, I did a pretty weak job on most of it. Now, with summer on the horizon, I'm going back and doing a much more thorough job. There will be substantial differences with the first version, including it now being written in prose. This first post will serve as a cover page/table of contents. I hope you enjoy the story, and please feel free to provide feedback.
