Kennedy is at present rather ambiguously placed on the political scene. No one seems to doubt that his most immediate mission is to see another Kennedy installed in the White House as soon as, or before, it is humanly possible. President Johnson has a chronic record of cardiac troubles.
Assuming the worst. Vice-President Humphrey could: ascend upwards into the White House, shuttine Robert out in the cold until the late 70s. But if Kennedy could contrive to substitute for Humphrey's his own nomination in 1968. this solves both his own problem and that of the re-election of President Johnson.
