Robert F. Kennedy: Apostle of Change is a review, largely in his own words, of the public record of Robert Francis Kennedy, the man who polarized American public opinion to an extent unmatched by any recent major political figure. What manner of man was this younger brother of John F. Kennedy? What were his positions on the important domestic and international issues of our day? Were the changes in his outlook over the past few years the result of honest growth? He ignited the imagination of many with statements that were frequently controversial, sometimes daring or even radical. He aroused many to feelings of blind adoration and vindictive hatred - often without knowledge or reason. This is a careful review of the meanings and legacies of a dynamic political figure who, but for an assassin's bullet, might have been President of the United States. For the past several years, Douglas Ross has worked and lived with the speeches, statements, books, and positions of Robert F. Kennedy. Robert F. Kennedy: Apostle of Change was initiated late in 1966 in an attempt to review and present Robert F. Kennedy's public record for use in this current election year. The work became more comprehensive; its importance grew, and one delivery date after another was by-passed.

"And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country."—John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Inauguration Address, January 20, 1961 "Some men see things as they were and say ‘why?' I see things that never were, and ask ‘why not?"—Robert Francis Kennedy, Campaign Speech, University of Kansas, March 18, 1968 "The work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die."--Senator Edward Kennedy, Democratic National Convention, New York City, August, 1980 The words of three powerful brothers—men united not just by family ties but by a tradition of inspiring service that continues today with their children and grandchildren. Words which have united a nation, inspired generations to take up the very best and most honorable of causes, and pushed individuals to do and be and give their best. So often, these Kennedys—John, Robert, and Edward—found the right words to say, to the United States and to the world. John F. Kennedy, the charismatic President with a strong commitment to justice and human rights. Robert F. Kennedy, Senator, Attorney General, and presidential candidate, who carried the family standard after Jack's assassination and broke new ground in civil rights prior to his own tragic murder. Edward M. Kennedy, the Lion of the Senate, whose passion created some of the most far-reaching legislation of the last five decades. The Dream That Will Not Die collects some of the most striking speeches and quotes by the Kennedys, showing that even when the going was tough, these brothers found the right way to make their thoughts and feelings clear, showing their charm, humor, and determination. Here you will find your own inspiration, in the words of three men who believed that all Americans deserved the same privileges the Kennedys were born to, privileges they never took for granted.
