I'm voting for Kennedy instead of Trump and don't give a rat's ass what his family thinks of him. These people are desperate.
Kennedy family is huge. Who cares what a few say
Trump reauthorized FISA and said he will end it
Agree
So you're going to vote for a progressive pro choice environmentalist that supports a single payer health care system?
@@davidsheriff9274 well I'm really voting for my grandchildren future I only have about 30 years left on this planet
WE must vote Kennedy!!!!
Vote RFK Jr.
Biden voter in 2020 - RFK has my vote this time. I don't need his family to tell me how to vote.
SAME 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Myself and my family and friends are all voting for RFK Jr. and we live in Michigan Kennedy for President in 2024.
Wanna bet $1000 that you're throwing away your vote?
Yes, I am voting for Kennedy too and I am in Michigan also!
I’m from Hawaii and voting RFK jr for president
He won’t quit. Joebama ain’t happening.
I'm voting RFK. & no, we don't need Biden.
Lost me at “this country needs Joe Biden” 😂
Me too, Sleepy Joe's the Worse President of my life
And when he said, no matter who is running against him. Really guy? That sounds pretty scary.
VOTING RFK OR NOT VOTING
Please stay home.
@@linnpierce antidemocratic!
Quit suppressing the vote!! @@linnpierce
@@linnpierce Sounds like you're a threat to democracy.
RFK all the way
President Kennedy!!!
It’s a no brainer for our Country. Go RFK
"democracy is on the ballot", so why vote for someone who seems to have dementia? Who's really running the country? And why vote for someone who seems to be a narcissist, very self involved? Why not vote for the person who seems to truly care and is right in his mind. Someone who is an independent thinker like RFK Jr!
Jeff Zients is the actual man in charge.
Kennedy has my vote!🇺🇸❤️
I appreciate this guy, whoever he is, and Kerri Kennedy telling us what We should do but I am going to vote for RFK Jr. Democracy means listening to others. Not just fearfully voting for the lesser of two evils. H
This guy is not interested in real democracy. But what else is new?
All these clips trying to disparage Kennedy is full of comments supporting him. Time for the media to get a hint.
"If you care about this country" lol yes I do. I even fought for this country. I'll always vote independent till I die. Never voted for the two party dictatorship. RFK all the way. The People's President.
This country is for the people, by the people. Not for the government, by the government.
I'm tired of listening to hypocritical Democrats say this is about saving democracy and then demanding other candidates step down from the race.
YES! Talk about evil.... :/
Please never have this guest on your show ever again. He is nothing but a mouthpiece for the Dem party. If News Nation wants to be "fact-driven, and unbiased" please do not invite someone who is NOT fact-based, and clearly BIASED.
Agree
A Vote for Biden (he's 82 in Nov) is a Vote for Kamala for Pres...and NOBODY wants that.
she is terrible
A vote for Biden is a vote for Trump
Exactly! We know ALL about her. Why is NO one speaking about her??? Last wo/man standing inside that bunker in the mtn while we all spin! #TheFriscoKid
Yep, if Joe Ctoaks.....eeeeeeegads
RFK, Jr. has a 40-year track record of working for the people. What have these dissenting family members done, and why would anyone be swayed by them? #KennedyShanahan2024
A vote for Joe Biden is a vote for President Kamala Harris. I'll be voting RFK Jr in November.
A vote for RFK Jr is a vote for Trump.
@@OAlem A vote for RFK Jr is a vote against Trump to a never Biden voter.
@@OAlem A vote for any loser, or not voting, results the same as voting for the winner. What does that say about Biden's chances if RFK is on the ballot? We all have to vote for RFK to beat Trump.
@@OAlem Slow Joe can't beat Trump. RFK Jr can and WILL!
This guy saying “ let biden and trump do their thing b/c RFK won’t win” is adding to what’s wrong with our democracy! If everyone who wants to vote for RFK would just do it instead of not due to the ‘spoiler’ effect, then he’d win and we can forget about the other 2 bozo’s!
Exactly! RFK Jr beats both Trump and Slow Joe in favorability polling so if everyone that favors him votes for him he will win.
Even if he loses i'll be proud to have voted for him at all.
Perfectly said!
Wow did this guy just talked about democracy and not having the chance of a third party in one video!? This is insanity!
Long time registered democrat, for me the party lost its way and I rather vote for RFk Jr than Biden, voted for Biden and can definitely say I don’t need Biden! This guy saying if his own family won’t vote for RFk Jr what does it say about him yet ignores if long term democrats that even voted for Biden the first time don’t and won’t vote for Biden, what does that say about the sitting president!!!!! Bunch of hypocrites!
Yes. If Dems don't want Trump in the WH, they should hold their noses and vote Kennedy
Well that tells me who they are if they support Biden.
infobot
@@dexterious006karrine is that you?
@@adee1626I think they meant the ones who work for Biden.
Agree. When someone says that they support JB, I ask why and share my views but if they’re adamant I think twice about how I move with them
It's not a tough decision. Vote RFK jr
It's not tough to think that AIDS is a hoax? That's tough because you have to tie yourself into pretzels. He's insane.
Yes
#KENNEDY2024 most families dont get along YAWN
Bow out and vote for democracy?? Lmao, like does guy even listen to himself?
I'm a supporter of RFK Jr. In quick, random order, here's some of my reasons for supporting RFK Jr...
-genuinely wants to heal the 'culture war' divide in our country, and he has the ability to, being liked by many different 'types' of people from across the spectrum of issues and ideas, who are tired of the 2-party duopoly
-calm, humble, has integrity, has courage, truth seeker in general, thinks for himself (not a DNC/RNC puppet)
-not phony
-incorruptible, cannot be bought
-thoughtful and introspective
-deeply considers problems and possible solutions
-vocal about the corruption of 'Citizens United' and the power of the big private money controlling government
-vocal about putting an end to corporate capture over government (pharma, banks, oil, military industrial complex)
-wants to get us out of 'forever wars' and to pull back on and expose the corruption within the military industrial complex
-wants to pull back NATO and resolve the Ukraine problem via negotiations
-vocal about the dishonesty and agendas of commercial media
-wants to abolish all pharmaceutical advertisements on television (this has major influence on the 'news' narratives)
-wants to keep the pharmaceutical industry honest with safety testing, transparency, etc
-wants to get rid of government assist crony capitalism and subsidies for big ag, oil, etc
-advocate for civil liberties
-vocally against censorship (will free Snowden and Assange on 'day 1')
-against mandates and police state-like policies
-classical liberal sensibilities with respect of others (without the 'woke' or fake identity politics)
-vocal commitment to transparency regarding FBI, CIA, NSA over-stepping and out-stepping
-passionate about environmental and ecological concerns
-passionate about cleaning our food supply and exposing the unhealthy ingredients in processed 'foods'
-wants to bring preventative health more into public discourse; nutrition, exercise, etc
-will immediately close the border (this is not some republican scare issue, it is a very major issue - for many reasons)
-will send the necessary Asylum Judges to the border to expedite the process for legal migrants
-has an excellent plan to make homes affordable for all, including a program that backs mortgages at 3% and a tax structure to keep Black Rock from continuing to buy everyone out (this also will bring rent costs down dramatically)
-due to his family/background, he's well-learned from the inside of the various power structures
-due to his decades as an attorney successfully taking on major corporations, as well as government regulatory corruption, he is exceptionally well-suited for taking on the myriad of corporate capture over our government
*I wrote the list above many months before Oct 7, 2023. I should add, especially directed towards my brothers and sisters of the populist 'left' and populist 'right', 'progressives', 'libertarians', and people who are just antiwar, in general...
-RFK Jr. is in support of Israel (as am I). However, this in *no* way means he isn't also in support of helping the innocent people within Gaza. RFK Jr. has always been very aware of the conditions for the people within Gaza, and is especially aware of, and feels deep heartache for, the Hell they are living in now. As President, he is a person who would do all he could to help seek lasting peace and prosperity for all in the region
-although RFK Jr. is a supporter of Israel, he is not a fan of Netanyahu, and has said repeatedly that he would *not* be writing him a blank check with American dollars to do with as he wishes
-there is no one who would fight harder or more tirelessly to reach out to everyone involved, as well as to leaders outside of the region, to try to negotiate and implement a sustainable peaceful solution for both the Israelis and the Palestinians. RFK Jr. would bring many ideas and a commitment to approaching the problem there from several different angles, and involving several other players. In fact, he would have been doing this before Oct. 7. (Simply yelling 'apartheid', 'genocide', etc is *not* in service of an actual *solution* - ask Hamas)
-and unlike anyone from the 2 major parties who supports Israel, RFK Jr. would never be lead by the corrupt (and disgusting) sheer financial interests of the Military Industrial Complex when it comes to *any* of America's foreign policy; including with Israel
Wow. Thanks for listing all of this. Wish I could copy and paste. I believe the deep state will succeed at taking out Trump and when they do I will campaign and vote for RFK Jr. This could end up being poetic justice. The left spent all of their resources to take out Trump only to result in RFK JR beating Biden and whoever the GOP installs (probably Nikki Haley).
That’s only a small amount of the Kennedy family , rfk jr said he has 100+ first cousins
I have been on the Democrat side of the fence for34 years. RFK Jr all the way for me. I don't like his stance on Israel v Palestine, but that is the ONLY thing I disagree with. Big picture is that RFK Jr stands against our most existential threats from within our own country.
YES!
The country needs RFK Jr and he's going WIN!
Yes!
RFk Jr for President, he has my vote
I'm voting for RFKJr in 2024
Me too.
KENNEDY IS THE REMEDY!
Those five are life-long politicians and they are NOT going to cross party lines and lose their jobs (Bobby is Independent now). Of course they'll endorse the current guy.
For me it's Kennedy/Shanahan24!!!🎉
Keep it up RFK Jr....the greater the underdog, the more America likes them.
Not JFK nor RFK would endorse ge nocide joe
Propaganda is strong with these two
RFK is on track to smash the two-party system.
Yess!!!
That just shows how low the democrats have become, when has it ever mattered or been televised about a Kennedy endorsement they just trying to put the man down but using family to do it is just trashy
RFK ALL THE WAY!!🎉🎉
Dude......nobody cares what you think...many are tired of the two party system
This guy is going to eat his words. (What a weak crowd...)RFK 2024!
The country needs RFK
RFK doesn't "got to do" anything, just because you said so.
A vote for Joe Biden is a vote for Word Salad President Kamala Harris. No thanks.
#rfkjr for president
RFK 2024 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅
"Bees dont explain to flies why honey is better than shit" This guy (fly) is trying to explain to us why shit is better than honey.
This hits
Perfect analogy! Love it!
"This country needs Joe Biden", no the fuck it does not it needs RFK Jr or literally anybody else.
RFKJ all the way!!! 2024❤🇺🇸
Kennedy for president
I’m voting Kennedy 🤘 the media will never tell us a third party candidate has a chance… but he can win this! I know so many people who are voting for him
Yesss!!!
Go RFK jr.
RFK for president
Kennedy is the only one to vote for. If there was someone who has the integrity and intelligence as well as a whole lot of other things like he is fighting for true democracy and not this fake show that Trump and Biden have shown us too much of for the last number of years. Kennedy for President!!
Biden is too old
So is Trump. Both are having difficulties.
A Vote for Biden (he's 82 in Nov) is a Vote for Kamala for Pres...and NOBODY wants that.
Don't be agist. Biden is experiencing cognitive decline regardless of age. Some people his age are in great cognitive shape. Not all older people have the same issues.
@@fastenit27 Trump is worse as far as cognitive issues and he's younger than Biden. Trump's speech and mispronunciation of words is atrocious and he gets confused quite often, mixing up Biden and Obama, other world leaders, time lines and conflicts and facts in general. Much of what he says needs fact checking.
@@traceyholt8223 Trump has other issues as well. He has demonstrated that he is willing to coerce Secretaries of State (Georgia) to find votes, use campaign funds wrongly, encourage the overthrow of our government, etc. I don't think there are direct parallels between Biden and Trump. I believe Trump is also a sociopath. However, both candidates are obviously cognitively declining and impaired and we deserve better choices.
We need vision and someone who's willing to start fixing the corruption in our government. There appears to be significant corporate capture and control by big business of government. This country was supposed to be by and for the people, but that has been changing for decades. Please watch and listen to Kennedy without the prism and bias of the media and "pundits." I think you'll find he's not the "Conspiracy Theorist" that he is being made out to be (I know he's not perfect, as none are). When I was in college in the 80's, I studied political sociology and became aware of the revolving doors of government and big business and the impact it has. I learned how big business influences government and our lives - it is worse now than ever.
We the people need a government that is first and foremost for us, not for corporate business interests. Bernie Sanders highlighted this when he ran. He was right, but the DNC fought against him. The DNC and it's surrogates are fighting against Kennedy, because they want Biden. The DNC didn't want or promote primary debates and limited awareness of other candidates running in the party. This was bad for democracy and us. More education and information is better. Democracy does not work when the people are not educated and informed. Unfortunately the main stream media is culpable of spreading misinformation and only highlighting those who they deem to be the appropriate candidates. They have no right putting their fingers on the scale.
I’ll 100% be voting Kennedy,…we love the good ole scare tactic to not vote for who you want.
Maybe Biden should work on earning my vote. I'd also like to see him debate and speak to the public like Trump and RFK.
lol the political class is laughable at this point
Kennedy is the best candidate and its not even close. Got my vote.
VOTE FORJr❤2024President🤍💙❤🤍💙❤💙🤍❤🤍💙❤
Joe Biden has held federal elected office for 48 years and wants 4 more. Give it a rest, jack.
«We, the people, are the boss, & we will get the kind of political leadership, be it good or bad, that we demand & deserve!» [John Fitzgerald Kennedy - "Annual convention of American Association of School Administrators & National School Board Association" (Atlantic City - February 19th, 1957)]
PS - Since now to election-day: “All the way ... with RFK!"✌🧠 NEVER in fact forget: «When a man cannot choose, he ceases to be a man!» [Anthony Burgess - “A Clockwork Orange” (UK-1962)]
How can they say that he doesn't have a chance to win?
He has to get a majority or it goes to the House
@@dogg440 He has a majority in this comments section
RFK Jr definitely has family members that support him.
Where are they)
@@davidsheriff9274 At the beginning of his speech announcing his independent campaign run he mentioned a bunch of family members that were there to support him. But of course the lamestream doesn't want to mention any of them because they want to present the fallacy that all of his family members are against him.
@@jeffhaddix9508 Where are they,why don't they say something at any of his rallies,to counter what everyone else in the family is saying?
@@davidsheriff9274 RFK Jr is running on policies not trotting out family members like Slow Joe is desperately doing because Slow Joe has nothing to run on because he is a terrible candidate.
@@davidsheriff9274 Some work in his campaign. Some siblings support him at his rallies. His daughter in law is his campaign director. I was thinking that too about why they may not be so public about an endorsement. What I came up with is 1) it’s probably for their safety, 2) having family endorsements seems to me to be.. how do I explain.. not on RFK Jr. level. He wants to earn votes based on the substance of his platforms. Not bc family members endorsed him. I noticed that the family members that don’t support him don’t provide any substantive reason, and since they feel the need to publicly support JB who many don’t like, it also eliminates their credibility. It actually looks desperate to me. Like Hairy and MM r oyal family airing out private family matters disgraceful vibes, for money or power.
RFK 2024!
KENNEDY/SHANAHAN 24!
the 20 people clapping in the audience....ROFL.
debate debate debate
RFK is the best candidate, and the only candidate that could bring the country together. This country needs Kennedy. A few members of his family who work with Biden are against him, other Kennedy’s are supporting and working for his campaign
No Biden. No Trump. RFK 2024 🇺🇲
I feel that RFK certainly wants to win. However, if he does not, and his votes are away from Biden, and Trump wins, then democracy still wins. I
If everyone votes their conscience, & the counts are honest, then everyone wins regardless of the outcome!!
🙏✌️❤️🇺🇲Kennedy/Shanahan24!🇺🇲❤️✌️🙏
Who cares what your family says or does
This guy really said that if Robert was American he would stand down and let two guys fight over the country? Bro what ? That’s not democracy if you asking anther candidate to stand down..
RFK JR FOR PRESIDENT ! 🇺🇸
The irony smh
RFKjr2024
It honestly pulls from both parties democrats and republicans it’s just how many votes he takes from which party
This country needs ANYONE BUT Joe Biden. The Kennedy family…I have no idea what any of them have done in my lifetime, but I’ve been following the awesome work RFK jr has been doing for the 20 years! RFK jr 2024!!! Restore OUR country!
Bull! There are enough Americans whose families disagree with them for us to know that you can strike out against your own.
Most of his family members are on Old Joe's payroll, so of course they support him.
There are enough of us Americans who support RFK Jr and are sick of the divisiveness of the last 2 administrations to outvote his family. This is a ridiculous marketing ploy.
This guy is sleeping 😴
There’s “no problem” with RFK Jr. There is no “tough decision” for RFK Jr. and no one is “tipping” the election because he will win! He’s trying to help the people of America. American wants to vote for democracy and that’s why I’m voting for RFK Jr and so will everyone else!
The country needs open borders
He DOES have a path to victory, and it's us! Make it happen!
My family endorses Trump 👍
A vote for Biden is a vote for Trump
Wow, well the fam has spoken, damn. I had really hoped a Kennedy would win. I have heard negative remarks about his character.
RFK is the rational choice 🏆💯
Why are the Kennedy's against RFK Jr.?
PROBABLY for money 💰 or Black Mailed
They work for the Biden/Clinton side of the corruption.
Sign your states petition. Get him on the ballot. Vote Independent. KENNEDY24🇺🇸✌️
This guy is wrong
Shes nuts
If you think Biden has been a good president, vote for him. I think things were better with the last president.
Religious zealots on the Supreme Court. No thanks. Safe and effective at "warp speed."
Kennedy is the one.
This guy is covering for their fear. Anyone but Bidumb.
Suggestion and I've started doing this. Just post a simple comment of: RFK Jr 2024 nothing else. Plant the seed on blogs, podcasts, and news videos, especially for those of trump and biden. Don't bother engaging with any negative comments, just plant the seed. It's time
I’ve been doing that! Comments have been interesting.. I do respond sometimes though
This is just a hit propaganda! Shame on you!!!!👎👎👎👎👎
All of you saying that you're voting for RFK, do you guys love losing or what? Have you guys NEVER heard of Ralph Nader? Ross Perot? Do I need to give you a spoiler: LOSER. Please bet me.
I loved Nader. I even shook his hand. No, we don't LIKE losing. We care about CHARACTER. I WOULD'VE VOTED FOR DAVE HORIWITZ of FIGHT BACK! He still would've lost, but they made their living as moral ETHICAL business men and wanted to bring that to the country. That's what we wanted. To the winners go the spoils. The rest of us watch as Bill said, " all the world's a stage. All of us merely players," sir.
Kennedy will have Nader on his cabinet, advisor... we need all hands on deck and Kennedy brings them in.
I care about being on the right side of history. RFK Jr. supporters aren’t bashing ppl who won’t vote him. The supporters of the opponents feel the need to for some strange reason. Case in point. The actually helps RFK Jr. so thank you 🇺🇸
Everyone has an opinion, but I'm the only one here willing to put my money where my mouth is. $10000 says he loses. Anyone?
@@michellenina Right side of history? He thinks AIDS is a hoax. That's the wrong side of history and insane.
Don't forget in 1992 Ross Perot cost Bush the presidency had he not entered the race there was a good chance Bush would have won a very close narrow win.
Only one candidate can win, perhaps RFK will cost both trump and biden the presidency!
RFK Jnr being popular could mean no path to victory for any of the 3! Neither Trump, Biden or Kennedy will get 270 electoral votes and therefore it will go to Congress to decide. GOP House choose Trump as President, Dem Senate choose Harris as VP. Trump passes away from old age during the 4 year term - first USA woman president, who is also black!
A Vote for Biden (he's 82 in Nov) is a Vote for Kamala for Pres...and NOBODY wants that
@@mboiko A Vote for RFK Jnr is the same thing. Biden / Harris are a better proposition than Trump. First country in the world to be run by a President in jail.
