Thursday, April 4th. I asked Lyndon
about his meeting with Kennedy, he said Sorensen had accompanied him and that they wanted Lyndon
to support them. Bobby said he wanted
to maintain the position of unifying the country, but he felt perfectly free to express his feelings
in any way he saw fit. Lyndon said he had
never seen such arrogance. Then I went downstairs with Liz, we worked on the Texas trip. Seldom has there been a trip
I looked forward more to. I have a passion for
showing foreigners our country, and showing them our home. It was some time while
Mr. Pierre was fixing my hair, and Lynda Bird had been
listening to the TV, that she came flying into my room. "Mama, mama. Dr. King's been shot." And from that moment on, the evening assumed a nightmare quality. I have some very sad news for all of you

Bobby said he wanted
to maintain the position
00:00:14.347 --> 00:00:16.999
of unifying the country,
00:00:16.999 --> 00:00:17.809
but he felt perfectly free
00:00:17.809 --> 00:00:20.478
to express his feelings
in any way he saw fit.
00:00:21.521 --> 00:00:24.732
Lyndon said he had
never seen such arrogance.
00:00:26.275 --> 00:00:27.944

"Mama, mama. Dr. King's been shot."
00:00:51.843 --> 00:00:53.001
