'My wife has greenlighted it,' RFK Jr. said of his potential 2024 run for president
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering running for president in 2024, challenging President Biden for the Democratic nomination, and he says his wife approves.
"I am thinking about it yes. I have passed the biggest hurdle, that my wife has greenlighted it," Kennedy told a crowd in New Hampshire on Friday, according to reports.
Kennedy's wife, actress Cheryl Hines, was reportedly attending the speech at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, which for nearly a quarter-century has been a must stop in the Granite State for potential or actual White House contenders.
Kennedy, the son of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy, describes himself as a lifelong Democrat and has faced criticism for his activism against the COVID-19 vaccine.
In his speech, he called the Democratic National Committee (DNC) decision to upset the presidential nominating calendar wrong, as it moves New Hampshire's primary from the first place into the third.
New Hampshire, which prides itself on its well-informed electorate and its emphasis on small-scale and grassroots retail politics, has for a century held the first primary in the race for the White House. While Republicans are making no changes to their presidential nominating calendar in the 2024 election cycle, the DNC last month voted overwhelmingly to approve a new top of the calendar, pushed by Biden, that upends the traditional schedule.

he has a death wish his very own party and their machine have a bulls eye on him already
I have respect for Bobby Kennedy. I hope that he gets the nomination. I may not vote for him, however, it would not be the end of the world if he were elected.
Yikes. They’ve taken other Kennedy’s out for less. Triple your security!
“”Which uncle? John or Ted?””
We were speaking of RFK, Jr. running for PRESIDENT so of course, I was speaking about JFK, the president. Ted would have been an afterthought in anyone’s conversation - not important!
Agree.
One less Kennedy. BFD.
Teddy probably died after all the years of abuse to his liver. The baby-sitter doinking Kennedy skied into a tree. Who’s the third one that the Deep State killed?
Damn. There are so many of them, always getting underfoot, like cockroaches. I forgot that one.

There were stories that Trump would appoint RFK Jr in 2017, but he wimped out, as he also did with the William Happer appointment. Trump did a lot of good things as President, but also had a lot of bad appointments and other misses chances.
“We were speaking of RFK, Jr. running for PRESIDENT so of course, I was speaking about JFK, the president. Ted would have been an afterthought in anyone’s conversation - not important!”
Uncle Ted ran for president, as well, in 1980 when he challenged Jimmy Carter.
But, that was probably before your time.
“”Perhaps he’ll be a “Kennedy” style democrat like his uncle who did not damage the country””
My statement above. Why did you think I was referring to ANYONE except PRESIDENT JFK when talking about a “Kennedy” style democrat who did not damage the country?
Sure Ted ran for the job, so what? Was he in the WH? Was he a Kennedy who DID NOT DAMAGE THE COUNTRY?
Not before my time! Sorry! I’d already gotten several presidential elections under my belt by the time 1980 came around and not very many more left to go.
Nice try, son. There has been and will always be a debate as to how much the Kennedy brothers, individually and collectively, damaged the country. In their own way, they all did.
But, I repeat my earlier comment: The Kennedy boys were likely before your time.
I wasn’t aware there was a debate about how much damage ANY Kennedy did to the country in this thread.
Try engaging your brain - Repeat it all you want but I am a great grandmother and not anyone’s son!
I think someone is looking for an argument.
“I wasn’t aware there was a debate about how much damage ANY Kennedy did to the country in this thread.”
YOU were the one who brought up “Kennedy damage” in your post #135. YOU introduced it.
“”Perhaps he’ll be a “Kennedy” style democrat like his uncle who did not damage the country””
“”YOU were the one who brought up “Kennedy damage” in your post #135. YOU introduced it.””
You take THAT as an introduction? Ever take a class in “comprehension?”
Better go back to the beginning of this thread and try to keep up!
