The story of Robert Kennedy Jr is a sad tale of what happens when a man who is part of a family that was once considered Democrat royalty chooses to follow a path guided by common sense and a concept of right and wrong. What we have seen is proof of the statement that neither his uncle nor his father would be welcome in the present day Democrat Party.
It would have been possible to become part of the ruling establishment if he were willing to take on the anti-American, anti-western civilization and anti-common sense philosophy of the Obama-Biden-Harris cabal. His “problem” is that he has a sense of American values and does not wish to destroy the greatest country in the world.
Kennedy's efforts to give the party a candidate that average Americans could vote for in good conscience labeled him as an enemy of the socialist/progressive wing that currently controls the Democrat Party. The powers that be didn't even want to let the voters interfere with their selection so they did everything to keep him off the ballot where ever possible. Everything was done to keep him from looking like a legitimate candidate – to the point of endangering his life by refusing Secret Service protection.
The lack of effectiveness of this protection for another out of favor candidate is a story for another day. However it may have more relevance than I initially believed as Kennedy's father, the Attorney General had begun the process of replacing the Secret Service protection of his brother with FBI or US Marshall protection even as bullets were flying in Dallas.
With the hostility from the Democrat establishment, Kennedy was on his own. He was subject to the same type of misinformation (read lies) as Donald Trump. Every where he went he was treated with almost the same level of hostility. Then people like Pelosi, Schumer and Obama wonder how he could reject the party of his father and uncle. The fact is, they rejected him. He was a man without a party but with five percent of the vote, which could be crucial in a tight race.
Robert Kennedy Jr knew the plans of the current administration would be a disaster if permitted to continue for the next four years. He understood that with Donald Trump in the White House, the America he knew would have a chance to continue. He did not agree with Trump on everything and Trump does not agree with him on everything – but knows the man has something to contribute. This is the way things used to be when Rs and Ds could work together for the good of the country. The two of them and their followers may have a chance to create a new American consensus.
One thing the two men have in common is a sense that they and many Americans believe we did not get the full story from the Warren Commission. This is an extremely dangerous position as more than fifty people have lost their lives by poking around this information and learning too much.
The leaders of the Democrat Party and, even his own family, are angry with him for abandoning the former party of the working man, when in fact the party abandoned him and the concern for the working man decades ago. They believe he should have just dropped out and let them kick him around a few more times... something no patriot should every do.
What Robert F Kennedy Jr did was the right thing to do. It should entitle him to a new chapter in his uncle's book, Profiles in Courage... and in his own way he is working to make America great again.
