I don't get it. This guy is pretty close to Bernie Sanders, except for the vaccine thing. Is that enough to vote for someone? Running on being the anti-Biden/Trump on vaccines?

I don't know why any Republican would vote for him. Yet, he seems to be going for Republican support, and getting more of it than Dems.

There are already a lot of Skeletons in his closet. He was convicted for Heroin possession. Is that a good thing for a president.

And if he's running, what about his wife's suicide, and the fact she found his journal where he confessed to cheating on her 37 times - in just one year of their marriage.

Nah. The Democrat election fraud machine can handle this.

Choosing her doomed Kennedy’s campaign. His support eroded overnight.

For the sake of the country, I hope that the New York Post is correct on this.

It may strip a few voters away, but Trump hate will rule all. The anti-Trumpers are borderline lunatics, my in-laws included.

Bobby only helps us. On the other hand it’s hard to dispell a feeling that something especially evil is afoot so it may not matter. I think Biden is planning to steal even if he can’t manufacture the winning totals election night.

Jr. is the most Radical Left Candidate in the race, by far. He’s a big fan of the Green New Scam, and other economy killing disasters. I guess this would mean he is going to be taking votes from Crooked Joe Biden, which would be a great service to America. His running mate, Nicole Shanahan, is even more “Liberal” than him, if that’s possible. Kennedy is a Radical Left Democrat, and always will be!!! It’s great for MAGA, but the Communists will make it very hard for him to get on the Ballot. Expect him, and her, to be indicted any day now, probably for Environmental Fraud! He is Crooked Joe Biden’s Political Opponent, not mine. I love that he is running!

He’s appealing to those sick of the Democrat crookery but who won’t cross the bridge to vote for Trump.

I don’t understand why people vote third party. The next president will be either Trump or Biden, unless the Dems swap him out before November. When I vote, I vote for someone I hope will win and who has a chance of winning, not someone I know doesn’t have a snowball’s chance.

Kennedy is a liberal Democrat. The Covid vaccine and big Pharma, is a single-issue appeal to Republicans, and that one issue has a lot of appeal. Every Presidential election, there is always a small percent of each party that will not back their party's candidate. Other than that, he's another solid Democrat.

Third party Presidential candidates draw evenly disaffected voters evenly from both parties, which is what happened with Anderson and Perot in 1980 and 1992 respectively. Then after the election, the losers blame the third parties for their loss.

The press and political pundit class act like third parties are important when they have no real influence. If third parties were a factor in US politics, they would win elections and make policy and legislation. They don't. Look at Sanders, he is a solid Democrat despite the independent/socialist label.

RFK Jr had his flash in the pan, what is happening now is his fizzling out.

And Shanahan thinks she is a female Kennedy in that she became a billionaire by sleeping with billionaires.

I posit that this is nothing more than to keep a large (yet disaffected) bloc of the Democrat Party, from either outright defecting to Trump, or staying home in November, and not voting for anyone.

The Party is made up of many factions, including Never-Trumpers, BernieBot Socialist holdovers, RFK,Jr.-voted-for-his-Daddy Old Liberals/Democrats, Abortion-at-any-Cost "Feminists", the 95%+ black voting bloc, media conglomerates , Big Tech, Big Pharma, et al.

These blocs cover the political spectrum: hairy smelly always vote Democrat to the the almost-awake-almost-ready-kinda-sorta blacks and Gen Zers teetering on the edge of conservatism (even if it's wallet-conservatism).

If the Democrat Party believes in 2024 that they can't (again) outright steal the election, better to have the fig leaf of a cohesive Party Machine at the State, Congressional and Judicial levels, ready to get in the way, ready to get violent (again), and ready to keep trying to Get Trump.

Useful Idiots, Fellow Travelers, bodies, beating hearts, allies and enemies alike come and go, but Party "unity" is Everything.

“I don’t know why any Republican would vote for him. Yet, he seems to be going for Republican support, and getting more of it than Dems.”

That’s likely because during the period he was running in the Dem primary, a lot of conservative media organizations were giving him a lot of air time to try to annoy / disrupt Biden. After he left the primary race, this backfired as a lot of false credibility was built with parts of the conservative base. Witness the number of people on here who promote him as an “advocate of free speech” when he has in fact one of the most notorious and prominent advocates of censorship:

I love this pick for RFK Jr. This positions him more on the Left AND she’s got enough cash to bankroll his entire campaign with no sweat. So much for the Democrats’ efforts to keep him off the ballot. With this VP pick, the people who are going to vote for him are going to be far more likely to be people who would otherwise have voted for Biden.

The same kind of “republicans” that would vote for him are the same ones backing Willard Romney and Liz Cheney...

Chill and enjoy this.

There are millions of Democrats who will finally get to vote for a Kennedy.

All we need to do is get out of their way.
