First, We Were Making The Effort There So That People Would Have Their Own
Right To Decide Their Own Future, And Could Select Their Own Form Of
Government .
"First, we were making the effort there so that people would have their own
right to decide their own future, and could select their own form of
government ... Now we're saying we're going to fight there so that we don't
have to fight in Thailand, so we don't have to fight on the West Coast of the
United States, so that they won't move across the Rockies.
-- Robert Francis Kennedy (1925-1968), November 26, 1967
