A living Kennedy

 


Robert F Kennedy Jr (yes, he really is the son of *the* Robert F Kennedy) recently announced his decision to run for president. Or rather run in the Democratic presidential primaries, thus challenging Joe Biden, who is expected to announce his re-election bid soon. RFK Jr is an environmentalist activist, an anti-vaxxer and a supposed “conspiracy theorist”. For instance, he doesn´t believe that his father and uncle were killed by lone gunmen, go figure! 

A recent poll shows that 14% of 2020 Biden voters support Kennedy, which is intriguing to be sure, but it´s still too early to tell whether he will really be a problem for Joe in 2024. Probably not, if Trump is the apparent GOP nominee! 

In completely unrelated news, Marianne Williamson – the peculiar New Age candidate from the 2020 Dem primaries – has announced that she will make a second attempt…

Not sure if any of this means anything at all, but at least now you know.

  1. Kennedy Jr verkar vettig om än lute lätt foluhattig ibland.
    OT:
    Har du en aning om vem det här är? Obskyra vänstergrupper, inte sällan i England verkar vara din paradgren.

  3. Jag har bara marginella kunskaper om gruppen hon tillhör. Den heter CPGB-ML och verkar vara en relativt renlärig stalinistisk grupp, ledd av en indier bosatt i Storbritannien. De brukar väcka uppståndelse genom att ibland arrangera demonstrationer som är öppet kommunistiska eller "stalinistiska". Vet annars inte så mycket om deras konkreta politiska positioner. De verkar stenhårt stödja Kina och Ryssland mot USA.

    Underligt nog finns det info på Wiki om dem:

  4. Eller "han". Jag trodde först att twittraren var någon av kvinnorna i Twitter-profilen, men det står ju att han är en man i presentationen...
