Robert F. Kennedy's assassination probably robbed the United States of a second Kennedy president as well as the disgraceful final years of the Richard Nixon Administration that culminated in the Watergate scandal.

Kennedy's death left the Democratic Party with no clear Presidential nominee causing chaos at the Democratic Convention.
