RE: Groomed for President?
I think Robert knew that if he ever had run for the presidency, it would have been his for the asking, but he then would have constantly been compared to his martyred father, which was hard enough to deal with outside of politics. Even if Abraham had not been assassinated, I think neither he nor RTL would have ever wished it to take place.

Great question, Herb!
