Whether or not RFK was partisan is not relevant. His brother was assassinated and his opinion about the Warren Commission had nothing to do with partisan issues. That is the point.
Saying he was not thinking clearly just because it was his brother is an empty statement. RFK had plenty of time to analyze the results of the investigation.
Perhaps you shortsighted to me. He was his brother's attorney general. Who had more insight at the time?
I'd say that in a thread entitled "RFK Jr. is a conspiracy theorist" whether RFK was partisan is quite relevant.
That RFK was attorney general doesn't inherently give him more insight into the matter than the authors who spend decades researching.

RFK worked with JFK and probably knew more about what went on at that time than some author that didn't know any of them. I would think being his brother would give RFK more credibility, not less.
Your logic here is truly perplexing. You seem too dismissive considering RFK was on the "inside" so to speak.

I know, but I'm sure RFK Jr. is aware of his father's position.
I was just making sure you knew I was talking about RFK and not his son. How partisan RFK was is not relevant to his opinion of the Warren Commission Report.
