Clinton Ads Feature Kennedy, Chavez Kin

By The Associated Press – 5 hours ago

TITLE: "Bobby"

LENGTH: 30 seconds

AIRING: California, Massachusetts, New York and Arizona

SCRIPT: (Robert F. Kennedy Jr.) My father tried to be a voice for the most alienated and disenfranchised members of our society — from Watts, to Appalachia, to the migrant farm workers. Today, Hillary Clinton is the champion of the voiceless in our society. That's the kind of leadership we need in the White House — leadership that will represent the people's interests and not the special interests.

(Hillary Clinton) I'm Hillary Clinton and I approve this message.

KEY IMAGES: Black and white photos of Robert F. Kennedy, intercut with his son, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., speaking directly to camera. Scenes of Clinton campaigning and hugging black and Hispanic voters.

ANALYSIS: With rival Barack Obama winning the backing this week of Sen. Edward M. Kennedy and Caroline Kennedy, the Clinton campaign moved swiftly to feature another high-profile Kennedy endorsement, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He's the namesake and spitting image of his father, a New York senator turned Democratic presidential candidate assassinated 40 years ago.

With Ted and Caroline Kennedy anointing Obama a modern-day John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy Jr. makes a powerful case for Clinton as the rightful heir to his own father's legacy of caring for those less fortunate.
