    Kennedy should have been prosecuted for causing excess deaths in Samoa

    You don't want people injured by the vaccine to have any sort of compensation and recourse? That's all he is asking for. He isn't going to deny anyone the vaccine who wants it and should get it due to their high risk.

    I'd just like to clarify that the "Kennedy" you are referring to about the Samoan situation is RFK Jr., and not my beloved John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I know you didn't mean JFK, but in 2024 it's amazing how many people know nothing about JFK-versus-RFK Jr. Too often, we Americans are 'chasms of ignorance'.... :spin:

    I would say that anyone who has their name on the ticket deserves to be on the debates

    This year especially, when both the Republican and Democrat nominees inspire so much hatred and loathing, it would be a very good idea to have candidates from prominent 3rd-parties in on the debates. Of course, the question arises then about which 3rd-parties are "prominent" and which would just be a total waste of time?

    Lengthen the debate. Anyone who is in the ticket deserves to be heard.

    I would say that RFK's platform is the closest we've had to a JFK since ...well since JFK. Its not an exact match of course, but closer than we've had in a long time.

    I don't think having 'very liberal' and 'very conservative' viewpoints is a bad thing. I think its a GREAT thing, and could serve to get us working together a lot more on stuff. Unless those viewpoints are contradictory. But I've not seen any contradictory positions from RFK. Have you, and will you cite them?

    I haven't got time right now to point out what I've seen in RFK Jr. that smacks alternately of far-Right AND far-Left, but I don't want to ignore you, either. Until I can explore this in detail with you, please google "RFK Jr.'s political contradictions" to get started.

    Also, this may be useful: https://www.wmur.com/article/kennedy-abortion-gun-control-nuclear-power/44273836

    Finally, I actually kind of like RFK Jr.... if only because I'm SO disgusted with Biden and the radical 'wokesters' who lead him around like a barnyard animal, AND, Trump, who's very likely going to cause the whole Republican Party to pile up on the rocks like an out of control ship in a storm. Neither Biden nor Trump should be anywhere near the White House, in my not so unbiased opinion....

    Yes... RFK is certainly one of America's most courageous and intellectually honest thinkers and speakers.......

    Wow you are right......

    R. F. K. has amazing political and intellectual courage????!!!!!!

    https://www.timesofisrael.com/2024-...ons-gaza-ceasefire-defends-israeli-offensive/


    In my opinion.....
    the Palestinian government is one of the most corrupt and violent towards the Palestinan people...... in all this earth...... and although what the I.D.F. is doing is resulting in a lot of deaths.......
    .... this may be the only way to give the Palestinians a better form of government for five years or so in the future........

    Here is another side to the Palestinian issue that I only learned about about a decade or so ago......

    Are the Palestinians the Jews NOT expelled from Judaea after Bar Kochba Revolt?


    Yes.. I believe that largely the Palestinians are genetically descended from the First and Second Century Messianic Jewish Community!

    Since i found this out... I find that I have been praying for Shalom in the Middle East in a different way than I did twenty or more years ago!?


    Are Matthew, Mark, Luke and John's grandchildren: Palestinians?????

    and speaking of Shalom in the Middle East......


    The Tate Plan for Shalom in the Middle East!

    1. take measures to prevent a worldwide Bear Market....
    2. increase economic cooperation between Israel and all her neighbouring nations.....
    3 produce more food for a growing world population.....
    4. increase plants and trees in deserts will will directly address Climate Change as well as the threat of rising ocean levels.....
    5....

    all of this fits with my 2008 campaign....

    RFK jr is good, maybe better than Trump.

    The US public is unaware of how bad the Biden Administration and the neocons actually are.

    If they didn't allow Ralph Nader in to debate then a nutcase with a half-eaten brain shouldn't be allowed in.
