I’ve been seeing videos on facebook of Robert Kennedy Jr. campaigning for President. I admittedly don’t know much about him or if he’s a long shot for President, but do y’all think he has a chance?

No. He has no path to 270, either in the general election or in the House if somehow he peeled off enough EV's to prevent Trump or the Democrat from getting 270.

No.

RFK Jr., on march to get on the ballot as an independent, flirts with Libertarian Party

Attendees of a Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. rally over the weekend in Las Vegas were met at the doors by people with clipboards soliciting signatures to get the independent presidential candidate on the Nevada ballot.

Anyone going to an upcoming Kennedy event should expect the same.

As an independent candidate, which he became when he defected from the Democratic Party in October, Kennedy is not guaranteed a spot on any state's ballot, forcing volunteers to gather signatures from ordinary Americans on street corners and college campuses, among other public places -- and at Kennedy's own events.

It is a meticulous process made more difficult by each state's unique minimum-signature requirements and windows for obtaining the signatures.

It is also expensive: the pro-Kennedy super PAC American Values 2024 is dedicating 70% of its cash to helping Kennedy access the ballot in 12 states, the group's founder Tony Lyons told ABC News. The campaign, which cannot legally coordinate with the super PAC, is spearheading ballot access in the other states.

Do Dems have any chance of NOT being a total jackass?


There's your answer.

If the Democratic Party wasn’t controlled by a progressive, elitist global cabal and had him as their candidate he would win in a landslide I believe.

No 3rd party will ever have a shot at being President.

The Republican and Democratic parties have built a system to where it's pretty much impossible for a 3rd party candidate to get on debate stage and get on ballot in all 50 states.

Yes. Ballot access will be the key.

No BUT he’s not unlike Ron Paul in that both would be 1000% better than what we have in office now. Nobody wants to hear the truth but Jr and Paul both speak many truths. Uncomfortable truths. They are both deemed wacko but are more sane than most Dems and Republicans.

he doesn't, and that's unfortunate. until voters who are unhappy but still blindly follow their chosen party decide to wake up American is fricked.

If they somehow prevent Trump from running RFK would win in a landslide. Jailing Trump and kicking him off of ballots is the only way for him to lose this election. Even with the Dems cheating.
