Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: America's Course to Revival

As the United States spirals into what some may consider ‘madness’, our political parties and representatives make it no easier on us to stomach the rising tension and upheaval that we see in our current political and social spheres.

The extreme left and right have become corrupt catalysts for neo-cons, fascists, and managerial puppets. The culture wars are a direct response to this birth of severe division in our state and have separated the ideologies of the USA into a multitude of sub-groups and parties that don’t really have anything in common with each other.

Divide and Conquer is what scholars call it, the effort to split, isolate, and victimize our communities, preventing us from joining together. 

“We are stronger in numbers”. 

This is what our corrupt system fears. The collection of like-minded people, who look out for the best interests of the people. 

Our political candidates on both sides of the debate: Trump, Biden, Ramaswamy, Newsom, Harris, Hailey, etc. They all, in their own ways, fuel the fire that breeds division in our country. Yet the newly independent candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., also known as Bobby Kennedy, stands as what may be the first middling candidate we have seen in some time. 

The son of Attorney General, Robert F. Kennedy, RFK Jr. has struck up wild support for his anti-corruption campaign and his promise of truth. Unsurprisingly, RFK Jr. has not had an easy time in his first couple years of campaigning. He himself is the victim of corrupt party exclusion and assassination attempts. 

Nevertheless, his message remains unwavering and resonates with those who manage to look beyond the media suppression that has obscured his ideas from the general populace. 

A message to break free of the two-party system, to rid corporate corruption from political influence, and to put an end to the divide that is crippling America. 

The attempts to slander RFK Jr. are abundant, but debunkable. And with the ideas this middling candidate seems to preach, it wouldn’t surprise anyone that the media, corporations, and politicians are doing everything in their power to wipe the name “Robert F. Kennedy Jr.” from the ballots. 

Policies & Motivations

It is rare for politicians to initiate their campaigns by renouncing corporate contributions, yet this is precisely what Bobby Kennedy did. Kennedy has openly criticized corporate tycoons who pour funds into political campaigns, influencing leaders to advocate for specific agendas.

Notably, during the Biden-Harris campaign, entities like Bloomberg Lp, Senate Majority PAC, and Asana contributed significant amounts of money, thereby placing a perceived obligation on the Biden-Harris administration to make certain policy decisions once in office.

These entities, often called "Super PACs" by individuals like Kennedy, are international financiers that channel funds to leaders and campaigns globally to sway policy directions. They also utilize national capital from various countries to boost their funding.

For instance, Senate Majority PAC injected over 20 million dollars into the Biden campaign with a singular focus: to secure a Democratic majority in the Senate.  

Asana, a corporate software developer, funneled over 45 million dollars into the coffers of the Biden Administration, while Bloomberg Lp, a financial media and software firm, contributed approximately 94 million dollars.

The motives and agendas of these multinational contributors are deeply concerning, prompting Bobby Kennedy to make a resolute pledge: not to accept a single dollar from any corporate donors.

“Independent doesn’t just mean I’m independent of the two parties. It also means I’m independent of their traditional funders and all the corporate donors. The Big Tech, Big Pharma, Wall Street, The Military Industrial Complex, and all the other ones.” - Robert F. Kennedy. 

His anti-corporate politics make way for the reparation of the middle class in America, which has been slowly deteriorating due to the growth in wealth of the 1%, and the expansion of the lower/impoverished class. 

His policies, even beyond economic, show to be very middling and logical as well:  

• Legalize marijuana but put a stop to Big Pharma.  

• The legalization of abortion to the first trimester.  

• No further restrictions of firearms but pushing for bettering mental health in America. 

• Closure of the Southern Border but encouraging legal migration through the port of entry. 

• Restrictions of experimental vaccine treatments and suppression of medical information. 

• Restrictions of life changing treatments for minors.

Specific policies aside, his campaign runs to specifically bridge the divide between our politicial parties, and in turn put an end to the culture wars. 

“Theres a sacrifice, that everyone including myself, have to make if we’re going to reunite America. We’re going to have to sacrifice the kind of political addiction that is ultimately at the root of all of these divisions, and that’s the addiction to taking sides.” - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

This political division, and the goal of national unity is drawn from the goals of his father and uncle. Robert Kennedy and John F. Kennedy made strides toward a more united America in many ways, and yearned for a country, free of hate, conflict, and division. 

“United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided there is little we can do--for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.” - John F. Kennedy, 1961 Inaugural Address. 

The Kennedys have always seemed to fight for one thing in common: respect among the American people. Without this, we fall into pandemonium. As we see today, the culture wars have bred communities of hate that spread nothing but.

Nationalities pinned against one another, social groups, gender groups, ethnic groups, etc. Yet none of these culture wars look at the true enemy: the corporate puppeteers. 

Kennedy’s goal of America becoming a nation of respect may quite possibly reunite our communities and redirect our anger toward something worth fighting for. 

“Our nation’s renewal is going to begin when we start to treat each other with respect. Only then will we be able to step outside of our tired, stuck debates. We will listen not just to the other side, but to those who are apart from any side.” - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

Many speculate that RFK Jr. might not reach the presidency or even secure a spot in the presidential debates. However, his aspirations may extend beyond merely winning an election.

Kennedy has previously stated that his campaign is more than just a bid for office; it's a movement.

He aims to plant a seed of thought within the American psyche that sparks genuine change. This isn't the superficial change touted by politicians from both sides of the aisle but a profound transformation that seeks to liberate society from the grips of corporate dominance.

“What really terrifies the elites though, is not me. It’s what I represent. A populist movement that defies left right division. I am merely the bowsprit of a ship that is going to cut through the armadas of corruption, of secrecy, of lies.” - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

Media Censorship & Misinformation

You know a politician is doing something right when the media starts censoring them. 

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has endured some of the most severe treatment by the media and fellow politicians in recent years. The media frequently circulates misinformation or unfounded claims, banking on the likelihood that most people won't do their own research.  

A comical example by CNN in attempts to slander RFK Jr. occurred just this month, when Kennedy was interviewed and asked “gotcha” questions by CNN reporter Kasie Hunt. 

Hunt blatantly refers to Kennedy as an “anti-vaxxer” in response to a comment Kennedy made on a podcast, where he stated, “I think some of the live-virus vaccines are probably adverting more problems than they’re causing. There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective”.  

Hunt names this comment “anti-vax”, to which Kennedy replies, 

“There’s no medicine for cancer that is safe and effective. That doesn’t mean I’m against all medicine. I’ve been fighting 40 years to get mercury out of fish, nobody calls me anti-fish. What I want are vaccines that are proven safe. None of the vaccines that are currently on the mandated schedule for children, there’s 72 vaccines, have ever been tested in a pre-licensure safety study”. 

Here, Kennedy is referring to “pre-licensure clinical safety trials”, which study the adverse effects of vaccines and ensures that any side effects are significantly minor. This is, according to the National Institute of Health, the “ideal” vaccine safety study that unfortunately is not conducted on many of our FDA approved vaccines. 

In order for a vaccine to be passed by the FDA, it has to pass basic safety studies that demonstrate the vaccine is “safe” for public use. This does not typically include measures related to adverse effects and these studies are also not considered “clinical”. 

Anyone could hear these comments and understand Kennedy’s point, as it is quite logical, yet CNN posts this clip with the title “Hunt debunks RFK Jr. vaccine claims”. 

It is quite clear that she debunked nothing, and Kennedy actually debunked her anti-vax accusations. 

Another case of CNN misinformation popped up when Kennedy had an “anti-vax” rally in Washington, where the headline read, “ANTI-VAXXER RFK JR. INVOKES NAZI GERMANY IN OFFENSIVE SPEECH”. 

The three reporters go on bash Kennedy for comparing COVID-19 lockdowns to Nazi occupation. They also make jokes and claims that Kennedy is “losing his mind” as they show an edited clip from the speech that shows Kennedy saying this: 

“Even in Hitler Germany you could cross the Alps into Switzerland, you could hide in an attic like Anne Frank did”. 

Obviously, this quote without context during a rally about COVID lockdowns is sure to stir drama and rumors. Yet the full clip exposes the misinformation that CNN is trying to spread. Here is the full quote: 

“What we’re seeing today is what I call Turn-Key Totalitarianism. They are putting in place all of these technological mechanisms for control that we’ve never seen before. It’s been the ambition of every totalitarian state since the beginning of mankind to control every aspect of behavior, of conduct, of thought, and to obliterate decent. None of them have been able to do it. They didn’t have the technological capacity. Even in Hitler Germany you could cross the Alps into Switzerland, you could hide in an attic like Anne Frank did. It was possible, many died doing it but it was possible. Today the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run, and none of us can hide.” - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

After listening to the full quote with context, you can see that Kennedy is comparing technology between totalitarian regimes, not comparing COVID-19 lockdowns to Nazi Germany. 

This shows the absolute utter hypocrisy and lies that are being pedaled by news media, as they can simply cut a clip to pieces and call Kennedy an antisemitic, anti-vaxxer. And unfortunately, most people won't do the research to find the full clip and will just assume that Kasie Hunt and other reporters are telling the truth. 

This misinformation is everywhere, as even if you search Kennedy’s name on google, Wikipedia claims that RFK Jr. “is an American politician, environmental lawyer and activist who promotes anti-vaccine misinformation and public health conspiracy theories”, showing the extent of this anti-Kennedy agenda. 

During his campaign, Kennedy attempted to perform a conference with well-known Jewish figure, Rabbi Schmuly, to put an end to the antisemitic accusations Kennedy was being bombarded with. Schmuly, a good friend of Kennedy, was furious when the New York Society for Ethical Culture cancelled Kennedy’s conference at the last minute. 

Luckily a last-minute venue was found, and the conference commenced, yet the blatant attempts at censorship by the New York Society for ETHICAL Culture were uncalled for and hypocritical. 

It's unsurprising that societies influenced by corporate magnates and political campaigns would resist portraying Kennedy as Pro-Jewish, as this would detract from attempts to cast him in a despicable light.  

Censorship extends all throughout the internet, as it is quite difficult to find pro-RFK Jr. media on google. Most sources are "exposing” him for supposed “antisemitism” or “anti-vax” positions, while Kennedy, on numerous occasions has debunked all these claims. Yet you don’t see a whole lot of his rebuttals to these claims on the internet unless you use non-mainstream browsers. 

More frighteningly, multiple supposed assassination attempts have been plotted or made against Kennedy, which would sadly carry on the legacy of his family. 

At a campaign event in Los Angeles, an armed man carrying a pistol was arrested after impersonating a US Marshall at Kennedy’s event. This of course raised suspicion about possible assassinations, so of course Kennedy made a request to the Biden Administration for Secret Service Protection.  

For the first time in history, a sitting president REFUSED Secret Service protection to a rival candidate, leaving Kennedy without formal protection of the US government.  

If this doesn’t raise any red flags, I don’t know what will. 

In the last week, another situation has raised Kennedy’s ears, as a man invaded RFK Jr.’s property. He was soon arrested and released the same day. Just after being released, the man invaded his property once again, to which he was arrested a second time and kept in custody. 

It doesn’t seem normal for a criminal to trespass on a presidential candidate’s property, just to be released the same day to do it again. 

You would imagine that greater protection would be taken for Kennedy, especially given his family’s tract history. Yet minimal effort is provided in many cases, with the rejection of Secret Service protection being unacceptable. 

But why might the politicians on the left and right want Kennedy gone? 

Kennedy said it best himself: 

“The democrats are frightened that I’m going to spoil the election for President Biden, and the republicans are frightened that I’m going to spoil it for President Trump. The truth is, they’re both right”. - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

Moving Forward

Sadly, an assassination may be more than likely, and with the death of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., we would also watch the slow death of our nation. While no candidate is perfect, and there are likely many arguments some could make against Kennedy, one thing is evident, and that is that Kennedy is our best chance at reviving America. 

Currently, Kennedy appears to be outpacing both President Biden and Trump in polls among voters under 45 years of age, likely due to a surge of young, motivated adults eager to advance the movement that aims to return America to its people. Additionally, over 70% of independent voters are actively seeking a third-party candidate for the 2024 election, reflecting the rapid increase in voters dissatisfied with the current political offerings. 

With a history marked by struggle and a motivation beyond monetary gain, Kennedy has consistently demonstrated concern for the well-being of Americans. This quality sets him apart and is a trait not readily attributed to other politicians currently in the race. 

As Kennedy would say, the real issue is the lack of respect and unity in America. It is imperative as a nation to take hands with one another and put aside the differences we have and see what we all have in common. 

For our nation to thrive, we must see the detriments of corporate, managerial control, and their attempts to pin us against one another in our culture wars. 

With or without RFK Jr. as our president, his movement stands tall and will hopefully push the new generations into a period of true change and development, that looks out for all Americans and individuals. 

“I’ll look at the evidence and the arguments and I’ll choose not the easy path, not the established path, but the right path.” - Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
