Jocko Podcast 431: You'll Get The Political Leadership You Deserve. With Robert F. Kennnedy Jr.

Join Jocko Underground: www.jockounderground.com/subs...
Bobby Kennedy Jr. comes from an illustrious political family. The son of Senator Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of President John F. Kennedy, Bobby Jr. was a lifelong Democrat but became increasingly estranged from the party in the 2010s as it drifted away from its traditional values. He made his final break on October 9, 2023, when he announced his candidacy as an independent for President of the United States.

@@TheDurphinator why do you think someone would try to assassinate him? That was a one time situation that happened in a different time all together. That won't happen again.

Exactly. It’s a vote for meaningful change. Even if you disagree with some of his stances, who better to initiate change than a man who has spent the past few decades successfully litigating against corrupt corporate interests and government agencies? The system is in desperate need of reform and neither party seems willing or able to do so on the whole.

Yes! The fact that so many people vote for a candidate that they don’t really even like, just because they don’t want the other guy to win, is incredibly frustrating. Those votes don’t really represent support for the candidate but it’s still interpreted that way. We need to stop going along with this ridiculous system that just gives people the illusion that they actually have any choice in the matter of who the next leader of our country is.

You merely have to acknowledge that he is a better candidate than two of the most divisive and disliked leaders we’ve ever had.

@@TheArbz From The Hill: “I do not believe that there is, within that second amendment, that there’s anything we can meaningfully do to reduce the trade in the ownership of guns,” he said, “and I’m not going to take people’s guns away.” “Anybody who tells you that they’re going to be able to reduce gun violence through gun control at this point I don’t think is being realistic,” Kennedy added. If you listen to him on this issue he will tell you he is a constitution absolutist and is not trying to take your guns. In the very unlikely event that both the Dems and Republicans near unanimously support an assault rifle ban, he would sign it as then it would be the "will of the people". That's it. He does not want to change or remove the 2A, and he doesn't believe guns are the problem.

I like him...but I'm sorry, I just don't think that his VP choice was a smart choice at all. I agree with Joe Rogan in that I don't like identity politics- pick someone who is best-suited for the job. A guy like Jocko comes from a world where political correctness, ''wokeness'' and social experimentation could get people killed, so I don't think identity politics should factor into someone picking their running mate as Vice President Of The United States- someone who will be a heartbeat away from the presidency( and I know that it already HAS factored into politics, like it did with Kamala Harris being selected by Joe Biden as his running mate and I didn't agree with that, either). People don't always like to say hear this about identity politics but going back to what I said about agreeing with Joe Rogan in picking someone who is best for the job-if that's a woman, then fine, if that's a man or a woman of color, that's fine. And if it's another old white guy, then that's fine, too. Instead of trying to turn a Presidential -Ticket into a Rainbow-Ticket, make sure that the people that are selected are the best possible qualified person for the job. I'm not seeing that with RFK Jr.'s pick for VP as his running mate.

He’s talking about things that trump and biden wouldn’t DARE, because they’re paid off by their respective corporations.

[@brianmurphy5313]

Another great interview. 👍👍 I'm a supporter of RFK Jr. In quick, random order, here's some of my reasons for supporting RFK Jr... -genuinely wants to heal the 'culture war' divide in our country, and he has the ability to, being liked by many different 'types' of people from across the spectrum of issues and ideas, who are tired of the 2-party duopoly -calm, humble, has integrity, has courage, truth seeker in general, thinks for himself (not a DNC/RNC puppet) -not phony -incorruptible, cannot be bought -thoughtful and introspective -deeply considers problems and possible solutions -vocal about the corruption of 'Citizens United' and the power of the big private money controlling government -vocal about putting an end to corporate capture over government (pharma, banks, oil, military industrial complex) -wants to get us out of 'forever wars' and to pull back on and expose the corruption within the military industrial complex -wants to pull back NATO and resolve the Ukraine problem via negotiations -vocal about the dishonesty and agendas of commercial media -wants to abolish all pharmaceutical advertisements on television (this has major influence on the 'news' narratives) -wants to keep the pharmaceutical industry honest with safety testing, transparency, etc -wants to get rid of government assist crony capitalism and subsidies for big ag, oil, etc -advocate for civil liberties -vocally against censorship (will free Snowden and Assange on 'day 1') -against mandates and police state-like policies -classical liberal sensibilities with respect of others (without the 'woke' or fake identity politics) -vocal commitment to transparency regarding FBI, CIA, NSA over-stepping and out-stepping -passionate about environmental and ecological concerns -passionate about cleaning our food supply and exposing the unhealthy ingredients in processed 'foods' -wants to bring preventative health more into public discourse; nutrition, exercise, etc -will immediately close the border (this is not some republican scare issue, it is a very major issue - for many reasons) -will send the necessary Asylum Judges to the border to expedite the process for legal migrants -has an excellent plan to make homes affordable for all, including a program that backs mortgages at 3% and a tax structure to keep Black Rock from continuing to buy everyone out (this also will bring rent costs down dramatically) -due to his family/background, he's well-learned from the inside of the various power structures -due to his decades as an attorney successfully taking on major corporations, as well as government regulatory corruption, he is exceptionally well-suited for taking on the myriad of corporate capture over our government *I wrote the list above many months before Oct 7, 2023. I should add, especially directed towards my brothers and sisters of the populist 'left' and populist 'right', 'progressives', 'libertarians', and people who are just antiwar, in general... -RFK Jr. is in support of Israel (as am I). However, this in *no* way means he isn't also in support of helping the innocent people within Gaza. RFK Jr. has always been very aware of the conditions for the people within Gaza, and is especially aware of, and feels deep heartache for, the Hell they are living in now. As President, he is a person who would do all he could to help seek lasting peace and prosperity for all in the region -although RFK Jr. is a supporter of Israel, he is not a fan of Netanyahu, and has said repeatedly that he would *not* be writing him a blank check with American dollars to do with as he wishes -there is no one who would fight harder or more tirelessly to reach out to everyone involved, as well as to leaders outside of the region, to try to negotiate and implement a sustainable peaceful solution for both the Israelis and the Palestinians. RFK Jr. would bring many ideas and a commitment to approaching the problem there from several different angles, and involving several other players. In fact, he would have been doing this before Oct. 7. (Simply yelling 'apartheid', 'genocide', etc is *not* in service of an actual *solution* - ask Hamas) -and unlike anyone from the 2 major parties who supports Israel, RFK Jr. would never be lead by the corrupt (and disgusting) sheer financial interests of the Military Industrial Complex when it comes to *any* of America's foreign policy; including with Israel

The other two presidential candidates are unable to participate in a 3 hour podcast.

[@zakglove6536]

Biden would need 3 naps and I have no doubt DT could talk for three hours about himself even by himself. It'd be similar to some crazy homeless person that talks to himself all day on the side of the road. Sorry to any homeless people if I offended you for comparing DT to you, you are far more respectable that DT.

[@dcastro9224]

Why do the polls show him doing so poorly? Are the polls withholding information? 🤔 He’s got my vote!

[@doreeneclose]

The polls are intentionally under counting Independents! About 43% are now registered Independents. The polls use no more than 10-20% Independents sampling. RFK is leading among Independents. If they had truly representative polling he’d be far higher. He is also leading among those under 45 in the battle ground states and his approvals are way higher than Trump, or Biden. If he can get on the ballot in 60 states, he will win.

[@manhalen7046]

Lack of exposure

[@BonnieV-uf5ds]

The polls are all over the place. You'd have to look into the details of each poll to see how it was conducted. Did they only call landlines? Are the respondents balanced demographically? What methodology was used? Was the poll weighted? What is the margin of error? We also don't know how many polls were tossed out to support the pollster's desired results. RFK Jr wins pretty much every poll I ever take on X...by a wide margin. But that's probably because the respondents are mostly in RFK Jr's bubble.

[@BeeBlot]

Pills are skewed. Most polls don't even include him

[@hunterbonny8734]

Most polls don’t include independent voters. Also, polls have trouble accounting for half the country that normally decides not to participate in the voting. 2020 was a “landmark year” for voting, yet only 51% of eligible voters actually voted… And RFK Jr. is a true Uniter. He is going to inspire a lot of people to vote who normally wouldn’t.

I find him a fascinating guy who's had a really interesting life. Anyone who's been through 14yrs of heroin addiction, had a spiritual awakening and emerged from that to do what he's done has learnt life lessons that are invaluable. It gives him a to ally different perspective and in our sick, addicted, consumer society, whether we want to vote for him or not, we should listen to him.

[@doreeneclose]

He’s inspirational for sure. He has great ideas about helping addicts by setting up organic farms across the country where they can go up work, get counseling, heal and prepare to get back in society. This is a win/win because he also wants to support regenerative farming to clean up the toxic soup our children are enduring, creating the sickest children on earth. He gets right to the depths of our problems, not the bread and circus that all of our politicians throw to us.

We must stop this. The Greenhouse Effect is one thing. What about The Deadly Human Effect? We're killing ourselves. You know In God We Trust is not a logo.

I'm not an American... I've seen 2 interviews with RFK Jr. Seems like a solid person, and compared to Biden and Trump... How would he not be the best option as the leader of the country? Also, as European, it's kind of insane that basically beyond the 2 candidates EVERYONE else is ignored. While for example, in Finland, ALL the 8 candidates get plenty of air time - including together until the end of the election. AND the presidential candidates are allowed to campaign only max 3 months so that they can actually focus on work.
