I don't know if RFK ever spoke at any Republican fundraisers but he did work for (and liked) Senator Joe McCarthy.

As for me, I was too young to remember RFK alive. I only "discovered" him after he was gone but I became totally fascinated with him. I think I've read every book about and by him, seen every video, etc. etc. I always felt regret that I would never be able to meet him, never know what it felt like to actively support him in a political campaign.

Then I 'discovered' Wes Clark. There's no way for me to know for sure what it would have been like to be a RFK supporter while he was alive but I felt, supporting Clark, that for the first time I might have some idea. Being a Clark supporter in those early days excited me in the way I believed that supporting Bobby would have. Nothing that's happened since has made me feel any different.

As for the two men, yes, they are each their own man, each very special in their own way. Both are great Democrats, I believe, and I am proud to say I 'support' both of them.
