Weekend News Round Up – RFK Jr. Will Draw on the Goodness of Americans to Restore the Nation’s Sense of Community

Dec 03, 2023

“There’s this faith that each of us have inside of ourselves: a yearning to do good things, a yearning to build communities, a yearning to be kind, a yearning to be of service to other people.… As President, I’m going to try to restore this sense of community.” – RFK Jr.

And America is responding.

Kennedy, Jr.’s Candidacy? | CNN.

Newsweek’s Michael E. Hamrick on why RFK Jr. has such appeal: “What too many politicians seem to have forgotten is that a governing vision should offer plans for hope and a future, pledging to stand with people in ways that empower them to eventually stand alone, and help the next generation. I travel the country frequently, and I see struggling people wherever I go. I can’t look away. It won’t be party loyalty that motivates people like me. The forgotten Democrat, the forgotten voter, needs a sense of how we as a nation and as individuals can achieve our dreams, not just vent our fury.” – Opinion: Once Upon a Time, Democrats Knew How to Appeal to the Working Class | Newsweek.

Kennedy rocks Utah on the campaign trail:

“He’s a breath of fresh air. I’ve listened to a lot of political debates and he’s the only person where I’ve really understood what he’s saying,” Kelley Tyburski said. “I think just foundational, who he is, I just really connect with. Values overall.” – RFK Jr. on the charge: Republicans, Democrats alike say ‘I’m in’ on Kennedy | NY Post.

Joe Concha on Bidenomics: “The administration’s strategy of painting a rosy picture of the economy is a profoundly misleading one. Here’s the recipe: Take data on items like inflation or gas prices at their peak over the past two-and-a-half years, compare it with a current number, and then take credit for lowering prices from those all-time highs.” – Americans Don’t ‘Hate a Good Economy.’ They Just Don’t Buy the Bad Record of ‘Bidenomics’ | The Messenger.

RFK Jr. is on to the game the Biden administration is playing: “Therefore the White House’s solution to economic despair is — better messaging! Or in other words, propaganda. The Biden administration is actually PAYING TikTok influencers to “tell positive stories of Biden’s economic stewardship.”

Kennedy Jr. Kudos to Ms. Cummings, as she sums it up beautifully at the end.

Have a peaceful rest of your weekend.
