    Good question. I wonder if he would ID people he actually saw on the plane or the island. Sounds like his wife at the time would have a story to tell as well.
    I recall he said he flew to Florida with his family. Not the island. That plane wasn’t just used for pedo trips.

    I’m not saying he DIDNT fly to the island, but conflating the two trips is unfair. It’s like saying “he admitted to carrying a gun. So he MUST have murdered somebody with it. “

    I would have figured most folks would have avoided Epstein plane trips after all the pedo talk got started, especially political people.:dunno:

    So has anyone read up on he how he wants to cut military funding by half and cut down on fracking?
    I’m trying to learn more on this guy so I’ve been reading most of these comments and other things. My wife likes that he’s mostly anti vaccine but I feel like he might not be up to par with other topics.
    Like I can’t find much on his stance on 2A but he believes that gun control isn’t the answer. Or he doesn’t like the EPA but what is his answer to the EPA?

    “Kennedy has one more leap to make, one more shark to jump.”

    “Even with metric craptons of money, which even Kennedy might not be able to raise, it isn't easy for a third-party or independent candidate to get on the ballots of all 50 states plus D.C. Without that ballot access, Kennedy's chances of getting 34% of the vote quickly decline from "not very likely" to "ain't gonna happen." So far, Kennedy has only qualified for the ballot in Utah. One down, 50 to go.”

    “That's why Kennedy said last week — and, again, please forgive me for missing this howler when it broke — that he is “looking at” running on the Libertarian ticket.”

    “This is when Fonzie starts putting on his swim trunks and waterskis.”

    “It's a neat trick Kennedy performed, jumping the shark while frightening the elites. But based on everything I've read so far, this story is just the elites trying to frighten donors out of more of their money.”

    To be honest, I am surprised he is not leading by more. Its not like his competition is worth a **** anyway. Either of them.

    I finally got around in to looking at his policies page. I see why he's not leading by more as he's a compromise candidate no matter what end of the spectrum you belong to. And if you're a checkerboard of right/left views how many of his right views match your right views and vice versa?

    How many people who want to close the border also think every "non-violent drug offender" should be pardoned? "Addiction centers on organic farms" has got to be the most hippy ******** thing I've read in awhile. I don't know what the answer to addiction is, but the scale we have it at in this nation...there's not enough heirloom tomatoes in the world to even approach making a dent with that approach.

    He seems pretty on board with the 'police are a racist occupying force' narrative and likes the idea of federal dollars to be used for reparations because slavery and Jim Crow.

    He also wants the feds to get into the mortgage industry with guaranteed 3% mortgage rates. No way that could backfire...again.

    I like some of his ideas, but nowhere near enough to overcome the things I find worrisome. Even if you ignored he won't be able to get any of it done even if he did win somehow. RFK Jr isn't someone I could support.

    A viable 3rd party would only be healthy for our country, I think, but this isn't it. It needs to start locally and build upward, not start at POTUS and try to expand downward. POTUS isn't king and can't rule by edict...and even kings need the consent of the levers of power to remain king.

    I have thought this for a LONG time. I think the problem is local is not sexy enough. We have a politics sub forum on a gun forum that is, at least in name, oriented at a specific state, yet all the "Hot" threads are Trump and/or Biden centric. That's what works people up and gets them posting.

    With the exception of Kelly and I think BM doing great stuff at the Statehouse both keeping us informed and also advocating for change, we don't really coalesce around around local issues or candidates much. I wish Guy would post here more, at least on an informative level, because his expertise is valuable.

    That doesn't mean we don't have people that speak up about it NEEDS to happen at the local level, you do, INGOMike has, I do. But do I do as much as I could in my county? Nope.

    I'd like to see a forum for each county in Indiana where people could actually discuss the people running for offices. At the county level surely some INGOers know them. I can't say I have ever been introduced to a single local official. Nor have I introduced myself to them. That's on me. It's shameful.

    All the memes, all the debates over who trusts what news article, all the Trump/Biden stuff is just a big distractor from any real change.
