    Remember folks, the people who like him seem to overwhelmingly be Republicans.

    I’ve educated myself quite a bit about him. Care to make a point about him that you don’t like?

    Seems to me the ones who like him the most are the ones that could care less about political party. I’ll vote for a Republican or a Democrat. Both parties are corrupt to the bone, and stand for nothing but their own power. I vote for the individual and his ideas, not for what corrupt party he belongs to.

    I’d prefer to vote for an independent, but the system is rigged so that anyone trying to make a go at it as an independent is screwed from the start.

    Seems to me that a disproportionate number of people who talk about him positively care very much about one political party.....or should I say one indivdual who is attached to one political party. I don't think they will vote for him unless the Dem primary is an open one & they want to make the party look bad. Beyond that he might get a few protest votes and a few crazies.

    Well, I haven’t tallied who is saying what. But, what I do know is that Trump would be disastrous for our country, and Biden has been disastrous for our country. How anybody could stomach voting for either of those losers is beyond me.

    Lol, I read that, and if that is the standard for pinning deaths on people, then far, far more deaths of innocents are on the hands of both Trump and Biden for the various conflicts we have been in. RFK is a saint by comparison.

    RFK is not anti vaccine. That is the propaganda machine in full swing. What he is against, and I fully agree, is not holding vaccines to the same standards of safety as other medical treatments. That is all. He was fully vaccinated with everything growing up as were his children. More than most due to his time in Africa.

    And if he gets in he has promised to roll back vaccinations - measles is NOT “just a rashy disease”. It is one of the most infectious diseases on the planet

    The Ro of Measles is 12-18 (how many people one person can infect) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28757186/#:~:text=For measles, R0 is,in a totally susceptible population.

    The Ro of COVID is around 5.7

    So measles is about three times as infectious as COVID

    You may never have seen a case of post measles encephalitis but I have. The baby was what we describe as a “floppy baby” basically in a vegetative state to the point there is no muscle tone

    If that idiot gets into the White House the resurgence of preventable diseases will make COVID look like a mild inconvenience

    In the UK, they are already seeing a resurgence of measles because of all the antivax hysteria.
    And the irony for the ‘save the kids’ crowd is that when a kid with measles infects a pregnant woman, she can abort the pregnancy.

    you are buying into the propaganda. But, even if that was his stance, in my book that is so minor compared to all of his other positive points that he would be head and shoulders above Biden and Trump.
    The political machine is doing its damndest to destroy anyone who doesn’t fall in line with party doctrine.

    When will you have a chance to vote for him? Write in??

    As I'm assuming you are not a lost Biden vote, I don't really care if you decide to join the 2024 Biden landslide...

    And it is not just rubeola but the entire roster of diseases we currently vaccinate against
    upload_2023-7-17_23-32-30.png

    Damn! Have people forgotten about Rotavirus - talk about counting the knotholes on the back of the toilet door! But it was devastating in children as they would dehydrate rapidly

    I'd call him a wolf in sheeps clothing, but he's not really making much of an effort to disguise himself.

    He's more like a wolf wearing a strap-on sheep nose.... fooling nobody...

    It is way too early to decide anything. There could be better candidates that come along. I am just hoping and praying that this doesn’t become a Biden/Trump race. Jesus Christ, why the **** can’t we get someone better in office? I don’t give a **** what political party they belong to as long as it is someone who can help heal the country, not divide it further. Biden and Trump are both dividers.

    I don’t dive a flying fig about the rest of that twaddle and if he were not an insane level anti-vaxxer I would be cheering for him too but he is a complete which-a-doodle coo coo for coco pops nutjob with a fixation on vaccination and I have seen waaaaaay too many people suffer from vaccine preventable diseases to ever go down THAT particular rabbit hole but if you want to sit down there fine! Just don’t expect too many left leaning people to join you

    He is not fixated on vaccination. He is tired of talking about vaccination. But no matter what he talks about, people only focus on vaccinations because that has been determined to be the best tactic to get rid of him. It is his opponents that are fixated on the subject, trying to portray him as a one dimensional single issue candidate. He is being portrayed as a comic book Dr Doom type villain. It is such an obvious political tactic that I am very surprised more people are not seeing through the nonsense.

    Biden has completely given up on working with MAGA (wisely)... If that's a divider in your world, nothing I can do about that...

    Until MAGA is completely eradicated, a Biden/Trump race is the best thing for America. Guaranteed 4 more years.

    If he's still in the race, I plan on voting for Trump in my state primary next spring, not that my vote will be needed....

    No thanks... anybody promoted by Steve Bannon and Roger Stone is automatically disqualified in my book.... I'm surprised more people haven't made that connection yet, but they will...

    Then don't expect me to take your point of view seriously, if you are not even going to listen to what he has to say about himself and his perspectives. If you rely on soundbites and propaganda put out by either party, you certainly will get a distorted villain characterization of the guy. The two political parties LOVE closed minded people.

    Sorry... you are defined by who you associate with as much as who you (think you) are...

    Also, I can rely on the soundbite from his very own mouth, from this very thread, to get a feeling for this man....

    Regardless of who one associates with, when people stop listening to each other, nothing good occurs. That is what is happening in America now. The left and right have their fingers in their ears and they are stomping their feet, refusing to listen to anything that falls outside their strictly-defined beliefs. We need to stop censoring ourselves, start listening to everyone, including those that we see as the "enemy". Only then can we start healing and unifying. The country needs to find common ground. Instead, we are doubling down on division. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the recurring people we are voting for in Washington.
