University of Kent

May 4, 1970.

I will represent the city more

Everyone has ever done ...

Because yes, the man

works for a living,

He pays his taxes and

is constantly ignored ...

.. except the day of the elections.

Ladies and gentlemen, the future

U.S. president.

The Honorable George Wallace.

George Wallace had a big

chance to beat Richard Nixon

.. In the primaries in Maryland.

May 15, 1972.

This is the man who shot.

Arthur Bremer, 22.

An outcast from Milwaukee.

Four times wounded.

Wallace survives.

But is in a wheelchair

for the rest of his life.

Now there is no

chance of being elected.

Before the Wallace campaign followed ...

Bremer had ... Nixon followed.

Unbelievable ...

... The results of the election to be

decided by presidential assassins.

Robert Kennedy came to

for young and old.

Black and white.

Students and employees.

He tried to call a stop

for the violence that had begun ...

.. with the death of his brother.

But during a speech

in this Los Angeles ...

... A killer stalking him.

I thought he was a prince, a

direct descendant and heir ...

... President Kennedy.

I wanted him to win.

When I saw him. It was

very exciting for me.

I saw him that night at the Ambassador Hotel,

I thought I saw a saint.

Thank you, thank you very much everyone.

I'm going to Chicago to try to win there.

It is June 4, 1968.

He has the first round

beating California.

After his speech,

he leaves the crowd.

Then he comes to a door

overlooking the kitchen, where a ...

Palestinian fanatic waiting for him ...

with a gun.

He received three bullets in the back.

Plus a shot

behind the ear.

Although he lost a lot of blood

: he asks

Is everyone all right?

The killer Sirhan Sirhan.

An employee at the horse racing

in Los Angeles.

Every morning when I wake up

I hope it's been alive.

I would not be here.

Is there a doctor, a doctor?

Can he come here soon, please.

Finally an ambulance arrived.

But Robert Kennedy died in hospital.

I wanted coffee.

That's what I was looking for

and wild.

And I liked it.

You found it in the kitchen?

Where I do not know,

I can not remember.

I can not remember. Only

that there was a beaker ...

Great?

- Exactly.

And a girl too.

I can not remember

what happened next.

You do not remember anything?

- I do not remember everything.

You remember anything?

There was a lot of commotion.

I can not remember.

On May 18 last year,

you wrote in your room ...

Letters. Letters of a maniac.

- Letters of Sirhan Sirhan.

Yes, but now I write

the letters were not, I swear.

I'm not perfect.

But I'm not crazy.

If you had 3 wishes.

What would they be?

The first was ...

... that Senator Kennedy lived.
