With sadness, that never ceased, I watched your Father shot on live television. I was living in Chicago and Elena, a baby in my arms asleep. Your Father, Robert had just won California and “on to Chicago” was his mission. Sirhan-Sirhan., anti-Isreal, pro-Palestinian , shot your father in the hotel’s kitchen, near dead. I sat in Chicago, in tearful disbelief, and all I could feel was profoundest grief! Screaming crowds wept as deep crimson- warm, blood seeped from your father’s head. And here you are now with your lovely wife and actress, Cheryl Hines, about to follow in your Father’s footsteps! Your voice may sound strange as you are affected by spasmodic dysphonia. I am just an extraordinary American because I do not think one party is a religion whose Ordinances must be obeyed and kept. For anyone, who would like to see Robert Kennedy Jr. Mon, October 9th! Soupmail me. Thank you!

By the way, RFK does not believe the man imprisoned for his dad's death was the true shooter. He visited him in prison to tell him that. Just like what happened to his uncle Jack, it was a setup what a crazy corrupt world we live in

RFK is not on the ticket because he has no party. He is quite a Libertarian. Hoping hes their candidate, sign up for his newsletter. Campaigns run on MONEY not words, and blame stories do not win elections. Footwork and phone calls do.i have seen him many times since he began campaigning . This poem had close to 1;600 reads with 6 comments? Proof thar Americans hide from politics but more than happy to attackit as often as possible. Blame the nut jobs they “themselves “ put in office? Never, it refects on them..the innocent? Lol..thank you. Americans need to grow up and be part of a solution nit laughing hyenas. Pangie xx

I wish with all my heart that this lovely man could become our president but the evil doers are discrediting him and trying to brainwash the masses by telling them he is anti covid vaccine. The man is so right. Just the other day I heard of a woman now bedridden for being boosted. Her own doctor said it was due to the vaccine. I will never take my chances with it. Nobody knows if they will be the unlucky one and media lies it's head off and ridicules a smart man like Kennedy.

Andrea, i have observed him since he first began long ago, the party of his father and Jack, do not want him. Liberal chsanels will not show him. The Conservative ones do! A lot is riding on his campaign manager, who I think iss a Dork. People are still fearing abd wanting more vaccines, masks and Covid. He is treated well by the GOP. The aDemocrats want the discredit him. They interrogated him on Capitol Hill like he was a thief., while they bow to Biden! Very sad. Pangie xx

Yes, you were the baby who was in my arms, as the tears fell. Some moments in life seem to stay with us forever.that one will! He grew up to be a man of courage, 1. 437 read this!! I hold in high honor those magnificen4 souls who responded .I am proud you are a great American,were elected to public office twice and your contacts in DC! Plus all the people who appreciate America you know in those honest in the press. press. Not one person wanted to hear him. That’s fine. I did. Bless you, Love, Pangie xx

You captured that historical moment so poetically along with the emotions. I remember that day as well, shocked--almost as shocked as I was when JFK was shot...horrified that some political adversary or party was responsible for both. I was in high school at the time. I agree..one party is not a religion, not a cult...yet some see it that way. I believe in our country's freedoms...one party will gladly take those away. Frightening. I prefer being like you--dancing with the poppies :-) Sara

We think very much alike, Sara,.you can see my remarks to Christine. I have seen enough,you should have seen theDemocratic House members nearly spit on RFK Jr What lowlifes, no classmate just Swamp members,I wanted to punch a few out. So crude, OMG, the Swamp lowlifes, ugh,no class, Democrats never were this crude. We are on the same page,,, I hu a patriot like you Pangie Xx

10/7/2023, Sweet one, I am most appreciative of this beautiful analysis of a simple poem, cloming from the deep part of my heart.I have seen JFK in high school before he was president, then I saw him against O’Hare Airport .in Chicago. I was beyond it when he was assassinated! Then RFK Sr was killed.Martin Luther King was killed, also! Tragic times,to see someone shot, on TV was tragic. Leader of tthe nation, I do hope RFK JR is elected.he needs workers and money to win.He’s a humble person, who believes in freedom, no forced insanity or jailing innocent Americans Hope RFK Jr is the next leader. With hugs, Pangie xx

Hey Bill I heard him talk twice in the past few months.. Quite intelligent. The way Congress talked to him! Rude and name calling, by his own party?? The GOP did not treat him like trash,.good for them…. All the Democrats needed were to rubber hoses and brass knuckles . What a show of verbal hatred they put on Pangie xx. Thank you

Imagine another Kennedy stepping forth, not John Kennedy Jr., the perpetual sweetheart who was downed in a plane. A man with a voice that is different but the same, a standout just like his kin. Will he win? Stranger things have happened. What a crazy world!

I heard his first speech as an Independent ,it was super,.heacknowwleged ahh his Democratic heritage and relatives. He shines with humility.I was quite moved, Kim.. I hope Americans stop adoring crazy people and electing them. You can see how divided our country is, I had enough of egomaniacs who just want cushy jobs in DC but are out to wreck America.see current President. Pangie

I watched the Dems in Congress treat RFK.like, as my Dad would say, “something I stepped in on the farm!” I was furious! Have you ever heard him speak! I have! He’s not a jerk, But his fellow Democrats think so!In Congress,I am sorry, I cannot understand them Especially, Debbie Wassermann-Schultz! She’s need a broom.Halloween is coming!Glad he’s running as an Independent! For one who has not announced officially, his poll numbers are great! We, Americans deserve the best. I already know who has ruined the USA…he walks into walls Pangie xx
