“What we do need and what 1968 must bring is a better liberalism and a better conservatism. We need a liberalism and its wish to do good—yet that recognizes the limits to rhetoric and American power abroad; that knows the answers to all problems is not spending money, and we need a conservatism in its wish to preserve the enduring values of the American society, that yet recognizes the urgent need to bring opportunity to all citizens, that is willing to take action to meet the needs of the people.”

—ROBERT F. KENNEDY
