If he can bypass the legacy media blackout, RFK can win. Almost everyone that gets a chance to hear what he actually stands for, realize they like him more than the other candidates.

[@Web3WondersUS]

Yes, if you listen, Bobby is the leader you are comfortable with negotiating on behalf of American citizens. 👏 👏 👏 🎉🎉

[@soyasibonnie]

Podcasts and tiktok are a way to bypass this. For nearly half of tiktok users this is how they get their news.

[@DeeperDives]

A vote for RFK Jr. is a legitimate vote for a brighter tomorrow. Not just for Americans but for every person on this planet. Honesty and Integrity are essential in restoring a healthy society and even if you disagree with Bobby’s policies, it’s hard to listen to him and not realize that he’s the most genuine, honest leader we’ve had run for president in most everyone’s lifetime. RFK Jr. 2024 🙏💪 🇺🇸

you're throwing your vote right to biden, rfk has zero possibility of winning

[@CountryWilde]

RFK is much higher in the polls than the one shown here! He's going for the win, and of course that win is going to spoil it for the two major party candidates.

[@MileHighMonroe]

I really enjoyed his speech this weekend, very well read and knows his history!

[@ryanrex297]

Please stop the spoiler talk. He’s clearly pulling from both candidates. Nobody to spoil. Take him seriously. RFK 2024!

You can't spoil what's already rotten.

[@petitorveritatis1]

Any American who loves Liberty and The Bill of Rights is a good fit for Kennedy

[@Rwethereyet]

His speech (like so many of his others) was so eye opening and inspirational. I always feel so hopeful after listening to him. He’s this country’s true only hope. RFKJR is the BEST fit for this country. His “conspiratorial” ideas actually are based on truth. That word “conspiracy” has had a negative connotation for a while now, yet time has shown those theories to be true. In this case, RFKJR wants to reel our rights back in where they belong.

Suggestion and I've started doing this. Just post a simple comment of: #RFK Jr 2024 nothing else. Plant the seed on blogs, podcasts, polls, and news videos, especially for those of trump and biden. Don't bother engaging with any negative comments, just plant the seed. It's time "We the People" will a president who can put our nation on a much better path.

[@clearKermit]

Keep an eye of your comments though, there are a LOT of bots out there auto-flagging RFK Jr. tags as 'misinformation' and having then taken down.

[@eldalopez3566]

[@tobetheanswer]

"The DDHQ and The Hill polling average" of 8.6% is skewed by one horrible NY Poll that didn't even include Kennedy in the questionnaire. Every major poll I've looked at has Kennedy at 15%, or higher. In addition to 201 Electoral Vote ballots, I'd say he qualifies to be on the debate stage with the two-party candidates. Are we a Democracy, or not? Kennedy is clearly not a spoiler. By the end of Summer '24, I wouldn't be surprised if he's polling above 35%.

[@Coalition4NewerVision]

Rfk jr 2024. His environmentalism isn’t contrary to libertarianism. Libertarians aren’t dumb, they know pollution is a real and serious issue. His environmentalism is seeking freedom in markets but also fairness, as you just have to clean up after yourself. It’s not contrary to libertarianism at all. If you make a toxic product and now we know it causes serious health issues, if you’re not dealing with that and are just dumping it elsewhere then you are offsetting your cost to society and therefore the taxpayer if the cost ever gets paid in dollars cause it actually is paid in loss of health and natural resources which robs us all of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Not contrary to libertarianism at all. I’m a libertarian if any party although I rather just be independent and I am a huge rfk jr supporter. Been supporting him for years, before he even ran. And it’s crucial for this country that he gets elected!! He’s about the only one with integrity in politics. Trump and Biden are liars through and through !

[@ursashaw4806]

If Dems don't want Trump in the White House, they should hold their noses and vote for Kennedy. Period.

[@laurencase7783]

Rfk2024 let’s gooooo

[@changingworld7467]

As a veteran, I am joining many other vets and supporting RFK jr. He is easily the best candidate of my lifetime, and the media (which is mostly just the PR agency for the DNC, Big Pharma and the war industry), has totally underestimated how many people are leaning his way. He is gaining.......

[@robinsuggs2169]

This Libertarian won't be voting for the 2 establishment clowns Trump/Biden this November... At this point I'm voting RFK Jr. 2024!

Honestly, get over the RFK Jr spoiler and conspiracy themes. He's not only got a good chance of winning, I think he is going to win. He's honest, articulate, genuine, patriotic, and right.

[@captainradio5894]

So satisfying to see RFK answer to all of Tim Pool’s foolish questions. Tim’s punditry is incredibly 1 dimensional. A word never leaves his mouth unless it’s spun to be pro trump. Such a culture war addict too. Anyways RFK addressed everything and I think Luke and Tim and friends all felt frustrated that they couldn’t “gotchya” him on anything.

[@Mrs.Laird1234]

I am not understanding these polls on these news shows. There are many polls that show him between 15-17%,but this one still only has him at 8.6 amd others I have seen only have him up to 10 or 11? No wonder people don't understand that he is a serious contender or want to give him the time of day. They need to update their polling and get the numbers right. That's like false advertisement.

[@sweetscientistberlin7105]

They know the real poll numbers, but they follow an agenda that is based on their donors. Therefore, they try to keep as many people locked in the old divisive way as possible.

[@TakeBackOurCountry-RFKJ24]

Biden is the spoiler! Kennedy's Bill of Rights speech was great! That 8.6% is hilarious when I just saw videos from msnbc and fox citing 17% .... very interesting. #TakeBackOurCountry #KennedyShanahan2024
