Kennedy Campaign Supporters Sound Like My Kind of People
By Adam Dick | Ron Paul Institute | June 30, 2023
Columnist Michelle Goldberg makes her disdain for presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. clear in her Friday New York Times editorial. She paints Kennedy as a dangerous “crank.” But, when Goldberg wrote in the editorial generally about supporters of Kennedy she encountered at a June campaign event in New Hampshire, her description seems to be closer to objective and is in line with what I have observed from afar.
Goldberg’s general description of the Kennedy supporters is also, in my view, quite positive. For Goldberg and many of her regular readers, though, her description is likely negative. The difference springs from differing views regarding the United States government and its expansive exercise of power.
Describing the people she encountered at a campaign speech by Kennedy in New Hampshire this month, Goldberg wrote:
The people I encountered believe that they are living under a deeply sinister regime that lies to them about almost everything that matters. And they believe that with the Kennedy campaign, we might be on the cusp of redemption.
This description of Kennedy supporters’ assessment of the situation Americans face makes me think they are my kind of people.
Also wrote Goldberg, “the movement around [Kennedy] represents a significant post-Covid social phenomenon: a coalition of the distrustful that cuts across divisions of right and left.”
That sounds like what America needs.

Noted. I’m intrigued, staying tuned….
But, but: the entry “The people I encountered believe that they are living under a deeply sinister regime that lies to them about almost everything that matters. And they believe that with the Kennedy campaign, we might be on the cusp of redemption.”: can’t that sentiment be applied to Trump supporters on his side (what *is* that megalomaniac’s side?) of the continental, societal-dismemberment divide in US politics (sic) and life (sic) today? Are Trump, and Kennedy, two faces of a similar tarnished coin? Nutcases both?

Woof! Woof! When was the last USofAs election that failed to include a sheep dog to rustle up those who know that the Democratic Party is a farce.
He’ll probably give his delegates to AOC, the next prez of the USofAs.
All Aletho readers, please ask RFK Jr his views on the Jewish State …
Please ask him his views on a “free market” economy.
In many ways, his family suffered a sort of “Holocaust”. In this sense, perhaps, maybe, he has earned a presidency.
Were this to happen, be certain that any investigation into the murders of his closest relatives that implicates anyone beyond the bungling CIA will be concluded by Jan. 20, 2025.
