RFK Jr. video - now interested in running!

[garybeck]

This is a decent interview considering it's Fox News, and in it RFK for the first time I'm aware of, expresses interest in running for office.

he says "I've avoided running for office all my life but I think things are so bad in America right now I would do it." (paraphrased)

1. Don't do it Robert, they'll kill you just like they killed your father

:(

2. I don't know if my heart can take this kind of hope. How scary for family.

3. Bull! We're behind you, Bob

I've been wondering when one of the Kennedys would figure out it's time. Poor John, we had such high hopes for him. Now there are no Democratic giants. The current leaders in Congress are pretty damned mediocre.

Robert Kennedy Jr. has made a fine career as an attorney for environmental organizations. He wrote a persuasive article in The Atlantic about his cousin Michael Skakel -- it convinced me Skakel may have been railroaded. He is a big thinker and a smart guy. He cares about the rest of us.

He's a worthy successor to Bobby. I hope he runs. I'd back him, send him money.

8. They will kill him. Why do you think they would not?

Why do you think Teddy is still alive? Because he never ran for any other office than the one he already had, after the Kopechne thing.

If he had seriously run for President, he would be dead, too.
