Unwanted: RFK Jr

55 years ago I was a delegate to the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Like other delegates, I had been elected in a Primary Election to represent the Democrats of the congressional district in which I lived.

Once at the convention, I witnessed the exciting negotiations, coalition-building, and horse-trading that went on between delegates and delegations. A process which, in the end produced a Presidential candidate.

It was democracy alive and in action. There were no “superdelegates.” No top-down control. And the possibility of a candidacy like RFK Jr’s being denied would have been unthinkable.
