HISTORY American Political History Robert F. Kennedy

Robert F. Kennedy

Robert F. Kennedy's legacy as a civil rights advocate and political icon shaped 1960s America

22 Nov 2025

How did Robert F. Kennedy's role as Attorney General influence his later political positions as a U.S. Senator?

His role as Attorney General led him to fully support all of President Johnson's policies without question. His Attorney General tenure was unrelated to his later political views, which were shaped solely by his presidential campaign. His experience fighting organized crime and advocating for civil rights as Attorney General informed his opposition to the Vietnam War and support for social justice in the Senate.
