Anti-vaccine activist Robert Kennedy Jr. files to run for president in 2024

Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine activist and scion of one of the country’s most famous political families, is running for president.

Kennedy filed a statement of candidacy Wednesday with the Federal Election Commission.

The 69-year-old’s campaign to challenge incumbent President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination is a long shot. *** Kennedy released a book in 2021, “The Real Anthony Fauci,” in which he accused the U.S.’s top infectious disease doctor of assisting in “a historic coup d’etat against Western democracy” and promoted unproven COVID-19 treatments such as ivermectin, which is meant to treat parasites, and the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine.

His push against the COVID-19 vaccine has linked him at times with anti-democratic figures and groups. Kennedy has appeared at events pushing the lie that the 2020 presidential election was stolen and with people who cheered or downplayed the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

A photo posted on Instagram showed Kennedy backstage at a July 2021 Reawaken America event with former President Donald Trump’s ally Roger Stone, former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and anti-vaccine profiteer Charlene Bollinger. All three have promoted the lie about the 2020 election being stolen. ***

Let the games begin!

I’m still waiting for a Barry Goldwater type person to run. I will probably have wait for several lifetimes for this to occur.

“I’m still waiting for a Barry Goldwater type person to run.”

That’s a fact.
I thought Kari Lake might be another Goldwater, but we will never know.
Looking in the wings, I see no one. A couple that are about 70-75% Barry Goldwater, but no Barry.

His uncle Ted did as much to destroy America as anyone.

RFK Jr. seems to say some correct things. And I like that he too has been cancelled, attacked and censored by the deep state and its media.

Its also impossible he is anywhere near as corrupt or perverted as Biden. So that’s another positive for him.

But he’s still a democrat

It may take somebody like Kennedy to put governmental democide on the front burner in the debates. It will be interesting to get a fix on where all the rest stand on the biggest crime in the history of the world.

It’s funny, but at this moment in history, this Kennedy would be more likely to have a chance at the Republican nomination than the Democrat one.

But he’ll shake up the democrat party. I look forward to his campaign speeches and the democrat primary debates.

Kennedy will beat Bidet in the primaries. He’s a normal old school democrat. He can give trump a run, but will have to rely on the USPS to win.

My guess is that he mainly wants a wider venue to expose government corruption especially in the medical area. He is extremely knowledgeable and courageous, despite the D after his name. This is likely a good development.

When the mass media smear machine is done with Kennedy he won’t be able to win a local democrat dog catcher primary.

They can make up lies faster than he can rebut them.

The RFK Jr. candidacy is potentially an ax aimed at the entire pseudo-scientific basis of the Democrat party. If that underpinning goes, the whole edifice falls.

RFK jr is about the only Democrat I can trust.

He’s a lunatic when it comes to environmental causes but his research on Fauci and vaccines is stellar.
