“Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sought to make the case on Sunday that he can do something no third-party or independent candidate has come close to doing in modern U.S. history: win a presidential election. Although polls show him far behind, both major-party campaigns, those of President Biden and former President Donald Trump, view Mr. Kennedy as a potential spoiler,” the New York Times reports.
“The reason he is behind in a three-way race, he maintained, is that ‘so many Americans are voting out of fear.’”
Said Kennedy: “Their only strategy is to try to keep me off the ballot and then to make everybody terrified of Donald Trump, and on the other side, they do the same thing. When somebody is telling you to vote out of fear, they are trying to manipulate you into abandoning your values.”
