Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., does not share the principle of racial non-discrimination that was practiced by his uncle, President John F. Kennedy.

John F. Kennedy was a reluctant and belated anti-segregationist. I recall hearing that when Nat King Cole visited the WH with his white wife, he asked Jacky to separate them for the group picture, and she adamantly and tearfully refused. Good on her.
That would’ve been Sammy Davis, Jr. Nat King Cole never had a White wife (although he was having an affair with a White woman prior to his untimely death from cancer). Sammy pointed out the difference between Nixon and JFK when he met them. Nixon was warm and gregarious towards him. JFK wouldn’t even look him in the eye. One reason Sammy endorsed Nixon in 1972. He knew the media and cultural portrayal of Nixon was utterly at odds with his personal experience.
RFK is a 2023 Democrat: believes in climate change, AA, gun control, abortion, etc.
Damn! Got the wrong black guy again. Curse you, Honkey eyes!
But he’s buff and not Biden! And not Trump! So he’s the one!/Sarc
Another fun fact: as Sinatra had gotten his Rat Pack buddies on the JFK Express in 1960, the Kennedys were very concerned about Sammy Davis, Jr. They were terrified with Sammy being on the campaign trail that he would turn-off the Southern White Democrat voters. They were especially horrified at his upcoming marriage to European Caucasian May Britt and wanted him to delay it until AFTER the ‘60 Elections. He did, marrying her 5 days after the November election. Imagine if Sammy had been demanded to do that by a Republican candidate ?
“..practiced by his uncle, President John F. Kennedy.”
How do you PRACTICE non discrimination? Constantly apologizing for being white.
Southerners, I would conjecture, would still appreciate a world-class song and dance man of whatever skin pigmentation. Louis Armstrong was America’s cultural ambassador throughout his career, which spanned the Jim Crow decades and beyond. JFK should have shown some courage. What a dumb-a@@. So should have MGM. I understand they edited out the Nicholson Brothers’ Chattanooga Choochoo dance for Southern audiences, too. Dumb.
Likely that’s exactly what’s meant these days by “anti-racist”.
We will see an avalanche of Never Trump people leaping to trash this guy. It will, of course, have nothing to do with policy because this election has nothing to do with policy.
RFK Jr is a lot more like his uncle Teddy than his uncle JFK.
Teddy was severely compromised by his “incident” at Chappaquiddick, and this probably ruined his chances of being assassinated by the Deep State in a potential quest of the Oval Office, which in turn put Jimmy Carter in office, as the “next best”.
So far as this stripped-to-the-waist showoff of pushups, RFK Sr was also a devotee of this method of intimidating rivals. There was an incident in the Oval Office where he put the same kind of challenge to Uncle Cornpone, Elbee Jay.
Our best choice is to work for a President Trump vs RJK Jr election in 2024. If that means voting in the Democrat primary if Trump has it locked up then that is what we should do.

He trashed himself with his call for an assult wepons ban.
I agree with a lot of his stated positions on the Deep State, jabs, etc. But I really distrust his leftist positions, his alliance with Robert Malone, and that level of shown-off buffness in a guy that age screams narcissism to me. (Not that the Donald isn’t similarly afflicted, if less buff.)
Agreed. They’ve probably had their hooks in him re: drugs for decades.
Donald mostly does narcissism as an act, sort of like Rush did. But that’s just “mostly”.
I am for RFK. I fully support him running as an independent after the Dems finish screwing him. I will campaign for him and help in any way I can, until I vote for the Republican.
He he.
Operation Chaos II.
