If the shocking 2016 presidential election of Donald J. Trump taught us anything, it should be that voters can still be unpredictable and unpollable, and that millions of them believe that the entrenched elites from both political parties no longer hear their voices or speak for them.
Voters are continually seeking a new champion. Will Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. become such a champion? I believe so — at least as far as the Democratic primary process is concerned. When that process is final and all the votes from the primaries and caucuses have been tabulated, I believe Kennedy will emerge as the Democratic nominee for president in 2024.

Unfortunately, big money interests will probably determine candidates and the winner of the next election.

I predict that RFK Jr. will be the first Democrat to feel the ire of the weaponized FBI and DoJ.

I wonder how many Republicans this guy would fool into voting for him.

Since it's going to be a RAT, it may as well be this RAT.

The DNC will block him just like they blocked all the others. Rig the primary against their voters. Call off the debates. Slander them in the media. Assassinate them, the list is long.

That would be "interesting". As I have said for decades, No More Kennedys.
A special exception for the unrelated and superb Senator from Louisiana by that same name. If he was running for Pres....he'd have my vote.

Biden doesn't deserve a second term. Doubt RFK Jr should be the recipient though. The people that run Washington have stepped in and will decide who will be President. Consider it an 'intervention'. They want somebody they can control.

The deep state wants FJB because he can be manipulated into doing their bidding. RJF Jr. be damned.

Ask Bernie Sanders how that worked out for him. Although Bernie got a bit of the "Stockholm Syndrome" for his efforts, because he certainly fell into line afterwards.

He can't quite be controlled by the radical Woke left or the Deep State. Although the author suspects that Biden will not ultimately run for another term, the powers-that-be would have already lined up a candidate that parachute in at the last moment. There's no need to go through the primaries like RFK plans to do.

If Quid Pro Joe were dumped Giggles would demand that she be the dim nominee. Feel sorry for RFK. His father and uncle were assassinated and another uncle died in WWII. But there are plenty of skeletons in his closet. After Fetterman was elected anything is possible. AOC will be 35 by Jan 2025.

Big pharma will assassinate him before they allowed him to become president.

FTA: The longer Biden stays in the race, the more he hurts the chances of undeclared Democratic contenders
This is a good point. RFK Jr. seems to be everywhere lately, interviews with old media, social media, podcasts. The others who may of may not run (please don't let it be M. Obama) are still, for the most part, on the sidelines.

FTA: "My first reason for predicting a Kennedy nomination is that I am still not convinced President Joe Biden will actually run for reelection, primarily because of concerns regarding his advanced age and the perception of cognitive decline."
I recently read another article on aging rock stars who are still active on the road and/or in the studio. Of course it is fair to compare them to Biden. Willie Nelson is 90 and after decades of smoking bales of weed, he makes more sense in interviews than our sitting president does with pre-written teleprompter answers. Smokey Robinson is 82, and his positive influence in music history is felt by average Americans, while Biden has never chalked anything positive in his long, shameful political career. Even today, either Smokey or Carol King, who is Biden's age at 80, would likely make a much more effective American president than Biden but age has little or nothing to do with it. Their IQs are probably double digits above Biden's. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are but a year behind Biden (both 79) and even with their near-lifelong drug and alcohol excesses, both appear more responsive and coherent than Biden. At a mere 75, both Bob Seger and Eric Clapton are still going strong and appear at least 15 years younger than Biden. Whatever your occupation, things are bad when you lack the cognitive ability of Keith Richards but intolerable when your current occupation is POTUS.

The entire media will oppose RFKjr.... Because he is a enemy of Big Pharma, who put billions of dollars a year into advertising on the MSM, (As well as the Deep State being against him for several reasons including having assassinated his father and uncle.)

RFK has a major liability, his voice, which will not play well in a presidential campaign.

Very probably OP, however he is still going to be lightyears ahead of the garbage we have in the WH at the moment, along with Obama's minions running the show.

Lets see..... Obama won in 2008 and unbelievably won re-election in 2012, Trump dispatched Hillary who was supposed to win by 12 percent, Biden supposedly beat Trump and Pennsylvania elected Fetterman.
I've stopped making predictions. Not with a population that is 50% certifiable.

This is crazy talk. Everything is shaping up to be a Trump vs Biden rematch. And Biden will be age 82 and more senile than ever.

Not sure if Bobby JR can end up with the nomination but he is going to be a major factor. It’s going to be interesting to watch. With Biden’s poll numbers tanking, he just might declare that he is dropping out for health reasons (a legitimate reason). The Dem machine can’t run Kackles so we might see a primary fight among RFK JR, Newsome and others yet to declare. I am stocking up on popcorn.
