I agree RFK, Jr on 90% of his positions on issues.

One thing he needs to clarify or modify is his community infrastructure and renovation plan. Many people think he is in favor of reparations because of this plan. I don't see it as pure reparations, but there appears to be an element of reparations in his plan.

He must modify this, or he'll lose much of the momentum and support he has gained the past year. No rational people support reparations. This idea is insane on multiple levels. The vast majority of people oppose reparations.

I'm all for upgrading and renovating urban areas. But NOT for any slavery or prior racism ratioanale. I oppose any hint of reparations in any way, shape or form.

I hope RFK, Jr thinks the same.

Mr Kennedy’s focus and vision using the 12 step program to heal the emotional wounds of society is well founded . My neighbor , now in her 80’s , was a regular attendee at AlAnon , it helped her survive her husbands alcoholism . She had three children and was unable to pay her bills or fill the refrigerator . The lessons she learned there have stayed with her and served her well. Recently widowed , her resilience and coping skills continue to be exceptional . When I remark about her ability to “ get on with it “ she says “ it’s because of Al Anon . These tenets should be part of every school’s curriculum , starting with elementary school . Kudos to RFK for his vision and courage and compassion 👍🙏💙
