    Honestly would like to know if you guys are still supportive of JB or if RFK Jr has made an impact on your thinking.

    I'm still on the Amy Klobuchar bus. Though I'd welcome Gretchen Witmer gladly if she chose to run.

    I have some buddies that won't shut up about RFK. Still undecided, here.

    I find RFK Jr interesting, the way he speaks. His voice is both the worst thing I've ever heard in my entire life and something that makes me hang onto his every word. Big issue for me with him is if I was a supporter of his, and go to a rally or something, a brawl could break out in the crowd because it's an odd coalition of people who hate each other. You've got a status quo type of Democrat that's just had enough of Joe Biden. You have vaccine conspiracy people that usually have Trump supporting priors. He's sort of given mixed messages on Ukraine/Russia, so that's another argument starter. Honestly, I think he'd be a better Libertarian candidate, only because the vagueness and ability to drift between left and right wing ideas is part of that ideology. Not going to win anything running third party though.

    RFK is nuts. Thinks water is turning people trans and that HIV doesn’t cause aids. Sorry. Not going to get my vote. Would be happy to entertain other candidates besides Biden, but no one else seems to want to run.

    I can't take RFK seriously due to his insane antivaxxer status.

    I'm not a fan of Biden, but he's the best the Republicans have to offer.

    I'd still prefer Sanders over anybody else prominent.

    I will vote for RFK Jr.

    If someone pays me $1 billion to do it.

    Otherwise, no fucking way. He's an idiot.

    I'd vote for her...she should shock the world and pick Adam Kinzinger as her running mate.

    I read this way too quick and thought it was asking "who do you refer to as your D"

    Of the GOP candidates, Chris Christie is getting my attention. But after all of the SCOTUS nominees, can’t really see myself vote for someone who is going to nominate more justices in the vein of Amy Comey Barrett etc.

    After what Republicans all across the nation have done in the past 8 years or so, I'm not sure how anyone with a soul could, in good conscious, still vote for one. For any position. Anywhere. I know evil when I see it.

    Also, fuck RFK. Conspiracy crackpot.

    The culture war, moms for liberty, city council and school board takeovers have been quite a lot

    The right is fucking insane. And it has become mainstream to the republican party. It is gross, vile in every way, and frankly scary for the future of our nation.

    I tried to listen to an hour of RFKjr's interview but after 20 minutes I couldn't listen to him talk anymore..he sounds like every breath is going to be his last one. Tough to listen to. I disagree with a couple things he ranted about Short answer, he wouldn't get my vote.

    RFK is a disgrace to the memory of his father and uncle. I would rather we have a different candidate than Joe, but I will vote for Joe over any republican or RFK.

    I voted for Klobuchar in the last primary. I thought she was the best candidate. I'd vote for her again in the primary if she ran.

    No neither option?

    I would vote for the candidate that gets America's one million plus citizens off of our streets.

    I would vote for the candidate that would get all Americans health care insurance so that more than 60,000 Americans didn't die every year due to lack of health care. This is a truly sickening stat.

    I would vote for the candidate that would stop sending America's money to our military while we have a homeless crisis across America.

    I would vote for the candidate that would work on lowering America's national debt.

    I would vote for the candidate that would get back the tax breaks we gave to our oligarchy through Reagan, G.W. Bush and Trump.

    Problem is, there are, and probably won't ever be a candidate on either side of the political spectrum with the balls to bite their donors hand. So I will have nobody to vote for Piece Of Trash U.S. (POTUS).
