How about you focus on more about his platform than just vaccines? There's so much more to his beliefs. Plus he's not anti vaccine. He's pro safety.

What a smear story. Listen to the entire speech and judge for yourself.

[JaredFleischer]

Good to hear, might be just what we need and good way to rep Boston

[louisehoff]

We have not had a candidate of this quality since I can remember. Your station has an odd way of characterizing such an honest man, failing to understand his concerns about unethical practices of big pharma and government avoidance of climate issues.

Love this guy. He doesn’t need any gimmicks or marketing. One of the strongest leaders I’ve seen. 🙌🙌🙌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[jsnip]

I am so excited for the chance to vote for this great man!

He should've run as an Independent. Both red and blue sucks!
I'll vote for him! 🎉

[Psalm]

He's not anti vaccine, he's pro pretecting the people

[mariannehettinger]

newscaster: ..."even questioning the war in Ukraine..." what's wrong with standing for PEACE? And he's not an "anti-vaccine candidate!" False labeling!!! He's for VACCINE SAFETY! RFK Jr's speech was sincere and inspiring .

I just finished listening to his announcement speech in Boston, and i am blown away. He's spot on. I'm encouraged that the foundation of his views, observations and objectives, is that of Love. I'm convinced this is what this country needs, and i think his message will transcend all party lines.

He will have a rough road going against The Machine, but I have a feeling that if most Americans have an opportunity to listen to him in his own words, they will be impressed

Let me put it this way. I would vote for Trump over Biden, but I would vote for RFK over Trump.

[KevinStCroix]

The best person for the job ❤ The best person for our country ❤️

[MrRubydav]

I like an agree with his views as a Democrat I will vote for Robert Kennedy Jr. I like him a lot an think he would be a great president an fix our country that needs it Biden should step aside so Robert Kennedy can run with other democrats an hopefully he can win the nomination an win the presidency but it's a long shot but as a Democrat you have my support Robert Kennedy the USA has been waiting for someone like you to become president an change America for the better an fix all the issues we have I think he could do it

As a Democrat this is EXCITING news JFK & RFK are legends...

[veronicagallo]

*Kennedy dropping truth bombs all over the place 😂*

[standinginthegap]

I'm very interested in what he has to say. And I'm a registered republican. He's right about everything he's saying. He may be exactly what this country needs

[jojohns]

I will vote for him today. He is honest and truthful

[babayaga]

Im a republican but if that guy runs for president in 2024 it might be the first time I would vote democrat

[mikeoze]

Time for grandpa Biden to retire . Thank you

Kennedy doesnt sound anything like todays Democrats. That party is so far left it makes him sound like a Republican. I like what he says.
