I see Kennedy as intending and capable of working to restore health at the many levels of our ailing country, so that we can be an asset in the world rather than enabling the massive transfers of wealth that are fueling wars that are devastating to others. Charles, I so appreciate your support of him, and hope that more and more people can be aware of his candidacy - everywhere the race is being characterized as being between two horrible choices, Trump and Biden. Blessings.
Just one thing, Charles. JFK was an unknown senator from Massachusetts, and the incumbent, Eisenhower, had just built over eight years the so-called, Military Industrial Complex, which he warned about when relinquishing office to Kennedy.
So, RFK Jr. is someone as bonafide as his uncle was, as well as his own father. All we have to do is give the man a chance. The only risk is the possible change for the better. People are afraid of change, which means they fear new possibilities unless given a guarantee. This election is one of those occasions where people have to show courage for a future that could change the world, and even overnight.
Hi Charles and Everyone making the world more beautiful. I just completed a Landmark course (synchronicities with Zen!) and we formed a book club and our first book was “The more beautiful world our hearts know is possible”! We are “meaning making machines” and each one of us “is unique-just like everybody else.” 🥳 Your words, writing, have inspired me to JUST GO FOR IT! I applied and have been accepted into Granta’s Nature Writing Workshop and am raising funds through GoFundMe to cover the 1,250 usd fee. Please consider donating: THANK YOU!
Why the nostalgia for Camelot in this community? JFK a peace & anti-colonial president.? I highly doubt it. Rather than looking at history through the lens of "Great white men" why don't we see how everyday people in solidarity were shifting the country towards Peace and it was met by systemic push back from those in power.
Hey, Good news. I live a minute away from Kingston. I’m Tiokasin Ghosthorse’s wife/partner I think you both have met in Portugal. He’s out of the country @ the moment, but I’ll be there.
I was open to RFK jr's candidacy for a bit last summer but I have totally turned against him. To say that Biden is a greater threat to our democracy than the orange smear, the walking, talking crime spree is just a big pile of steaming BS. I'm burning my RFK t-shirt in my burn pile next week.
With a limit on attendees, do you prefer that non NY residents wait for another opportunity in their state? Wondering if that is behind the "ignore this post if you don't live near there." I'm in CT and am interested in coming.
I would love to come sooo much!!But I have other duties(and live in Germany).
Is there anychance to get the speech recorded? Would be amazing!
My opinion about RFK is that he defenetely should get the next president.
Yes he is very American. But for us in Europe this seems to be the east thing: The US taking care of it’s own problems rather than shooting around in the world!
And this step has a profound meaning . It seems to me a step that is somehow in the air to learn : taking care of your own community without be blind for the rest of the world. How does that work???
What do you think about his manager basically saying he's just a shill to get Trump re-elected? If so, shame on him. If he was really trying to get elected, he wouldn't be siding with either side.
Yes, reliquishment of empire building, hero nation, etc. But does that mean accepting a world government in it's place? And who controls this? So far, the globalists have been extremely brutal in thier consolidation agenda. Please explain. I like your writing but I have questions about this and RFK's support of Isreal.
I was ALL for Kennedy Jr until his hundred percent pro Israel, hundred percent for war, hundred percent for apartheid, hundred percent for genocide – – ridiculous! Previously, I thought he was very intelligent and had analyzed everything in a very pro ethical American way, but now NO WAY!!
Interesting. Kennedy strikes me as being very "pro-American" and not terribly into a multi-polar world or relinquishment of empire. Of course I quit paying close attention when he proclaimed himself 100% behind Israel and talked about closing our borders....perhaps he's changed his tune quite a lot.

I was very interested in RFK Jr until his VP selection. Now, no way.
