He's an anti-vaxxer. That automatically makes him a darling of the far right, and utterly ineligible for my vote.

No one should ever vote for anyone based on their last name. Everyone has a responsibility to learn about political candidates and then make a decision about who to vote for. The key word here is responsibility.

What a wasted life that had so much potential and promise - with the name, wealth and pedigree. George - thank you for this detailed article and guidance. You’re the best.

Something is very wrong with Kennedy. A traumatic brain injury! Too many drugs in his teens? His views are simply ignorant and frightening. He is trump without the grift and the gratuitous cruelty.

I hope that Biden starts campaigning for the Presidency soon and runs on his record and his vision for the next term. He should ignore Kennedy and avoid speaking about him unless specifically asked.

Kennedy cannot win a Democratic primary, but if he decides to fuck America harder by initiating a 3rd-party campaign, I’m not sure yet which major party would be screwed the worst. He might siphon more Republican voters who are increasingly embarrassed by Trump than Democratic voters with Biden issues. I’d rather not risk it though.

Here's another example of the old saying "the devil is in the details".

Excellent piece -- strong, detailed. Takei wrote the intro; who wrote the article?

Kennedy has been “exposing” himself a lot lately. Could we have a rule stating all candidates need to keep their clothes on? Asking for a friend;)
