"Bobby’s straight-talking has wide appeal to Americans, including me, who’ve been hoodwinked by politicians for too long. Like one of the C-SPAN callers, I too have been a loyal Democrat for my whole life, but I feel my party—increasingly beholden to its wealthy donors—has deserted me. If the Democratic Party “jams” him, continues to treat him unfairly, and forces him to run as an independent, then I will follow the exit path of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
At my late age, I’m tired of being ruled by the lesser of two evils. I want a president in whom I truly believe."
I am so with you here! Thank you for saying what needs to be said!
Incredibly well written and said . Thank you for giving voice to me as well -a Republican who will cross party lines and vote for RFK jr under whatever label he runs because he is a fearless courageous truth-teller who inspires me every single day to be a better American citizen and to work more diligently to heal and repair my own community.
"At my late age, I’m tired of being ruled by the lesser of two evils. I want a president in whom I truly believe."
David I couldn't have said it better. We need to stop looking at Red v Blue, and turn together on the oligarchs who think they own us and can ignore the Constitution that protects us. Bobby is the only presidential candidate who will even admit to what is going on. A fictional character in the movie Network exclaimed, "We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore!"
I've never worked for a political candidate in my 71 years. I'm honored to work for this man.
My democratic friends and family are 100% indoctrinated by the main stream media. Anytime I bring up RFK, they refer to him as a whacko, nut-job, etc. Each time, I try to politely defend and explain a specific accusation and how that's a perceived notion and not the truth. Sometimes the truth is so "unbelievable" to them that they can't conceive it to be true (SMH). But don't give up! RFK has not given up so we must not either!! Keep telling the truth! RFK ALL THE WAY!!!
I am 100% with Kennedy, LETS GOOOOOO. Grew as a democrat but they went crazy. To make comments against Kennedy that he is republican for his beliefs, does not make sense. His words resonate common sense and here is the key word, common sense. This is a radical word now days. Well, then, I am radical. Compassion resonates too, and he has that too.
I've been voting for fully half a century and NOT ONCE have I been able to vote for a presidential candidate I truly believed in. If RFK Jr. is on the ballot next year, maybe that string of forlorn votes will come to end.
RFK, Jr doesn't have an option: If he wants to be in the general election, he'll have to run as an independent.
The Democrat party simply won't allow him to win the primaries. He could get 100M votes and it won't matter; Democrats will rig it so he doesn't win.
This is a 100% certainty.
The US is ripe for an independent to win the presidency. Tens of millions of Americans don't want either Biden or Trump.
And Trump might not even be on the ballot in some states. Several are already moving to keep him off the ballot. Millions of people will write him in anyway, but those states will reject those votes.
RFK, Jr. has a genuine shot as an independent. He fills an enormous centrist niche.
After I voted for Biden/Harris, I saw this monstrous disaster unfolding in front of my eyes. Hurting so many of my fellow American citizens. In many different ways.
No propaganda and continuously repeated messaging could hide it. It was and is there, right in front of my eyes and your eyes too. If you don't see it, then you (subconsciously) choose not to see it. I still don't know how to describe how I felt and still feel, after I saw and still see all the bad things happening to good people. It does not feel right.
The way how I felt and still feel made me realize, despite having been a life long democratic voter, that it was a mistake to blindly put my trust into one believe. I understand now that it is important to critically think about every single candidate and put them under MY microscope, before making a decision. As a result, I do look now at who is the best candidate among ALL candidates. The best candidate to solve problems that are hurting all of us, the best candidate who truly cares about the people (and not their rich and corporate donors only). And I have come to peace with myself if this candidate is not a Democrat. It doesn't matter, because the more important thing that matters is that the candidate truly cares about us, the people, and does what was promised.
At this point, RFK Jr. is at the top of my list. And it doesn't matter to me if he runs as a Democrat, Independent or even as a Republican. It doesn't matter, because no matter what he runs as, he will always care about us, all of us. This is what everyone politician should do and should have done. We have been let down for so long, we need to return being a people centric nation.
I have refused to vote for the 'lesser of two evils' and have chosen non-participation in the election process for almost 20 years. Kennedy makes me want to vote. For him.
Both Trump and Biden are disliked by the majority of voters. If there is a viable alternative like RFK jr then maybe we can finally be rid of both. I for one will vote for RFK jr before either Trump or Biden.
I believe Kennedy should publicly state that he will only consider a third party run if the Democratic Party picks a candidate that does not have a history of the parties values. That leaves him room to continue the popularity movement right up to the line where he divides the party. At that point it may end up to gathering all the value based Democrats into one large group that will even make the Republicans willing to talk with him.
I really hope you run and I would love to see Tulsi Gabbard at your side! And let’s break that Kennedy curse the DNC and their corrupt supporters wants to uphold

Maybe you can best reform the party by demonstrating the desperation of life long dems and running independent, Mr Kennedy.
The democratic party of our parents is GONE. Leaving the current democratic party will NOT dishonor your family tradition.

As we say in St. Louis when we are in agreement with you: I heard that!
RFK, Jr doesn't have an option: If he wants to be in the general election, he'll have to run as an independent.
The Democrat party simply won't allow him to win the primaries. He could get 100M votes and it won't matter; Democrats will rig it so he doesn't win.

RFK, Jr. has a genuine shot as an independent. He fills an enormous centrist niche.
He has zero chance as a Democrat.
“Kennedy hinted at an independent run last week on the campaign trail.”
The right thing to do!
As a CANADIAN, Bobby makes me proud to share a CONTINENT with him.
🙏
I was a life long democratic voter.
