- But when they become hysterical about somebody,
and they're like, "He's a conspiracy theorist,"
without even refuting what he told you,
then you know he's onto something.
I mean, a hurt dog barks, right?
When you have an infection,
someone touches near the infection, it hurts.
What does that tell you? You have an infection.
- Yeah. Oh, I see what you're saying.
Well, do you think that's one of the reasons
why Bobby Kennedy was looked at as so crazy?
- 100%. - Yeah.
- And what's so funny, as I said,
I saw him very recently, the other night,
and I said to him, and I saw him,
I sort of follow it.
I'm just interested in the reaction to Bobby Kennedy,
and remember, they attacked him as a crazed conspiracy nut
'cause of the vaccines,
and he said there may be a connection
between the vaccines and autism.
They're like, "Shut up!"
And they literally, they canceled his contract
with the New York Times.
He had a contract to write for them.
They canceled it. - Wow.
- And they just basically drummed him
out of polite society.
They don't talk too much about that anymore.
- Right. - But the vaccine stuff,
because I think there is this recognition,
and by the way, I'm not an expert,
but that actually a lot of people were hurt.
A lot of people were hurt,
not just with the most recent round of mandatory vax,
but in earlier rounds.
Now, you could argue it was worth it.
You know, we have a flu vaccine.
It academically, supposedly prevents the flu,
so maybe we get it, and some people get hurt,
but they were telling us for years,
nobody gets hurt.
Well, that's just a lie.
- Does Bobby Kennedy Jr. have any chance?
Does a third party have any chance these days?
- No, no.
A third party can affect the outcome for sure,
but the system is,
I mean, this could change with time,
but the system, it's shown no sign of changing.
I could bore you for hours,
but you know, Ross Pro ran in '92 and then '96.
- Yeah, I remember that.
- You know, and he got Clinton elected in '92.
- Fear the ears, that was the campaign thing.
- Yeah, fear the ears.
I never heard that.
- I never made it up.
- That was good.
- Thanks.
- But he, and he actually was kind of impressive.
- He was a real smart guy, huh?
- He was, he was,
and he said a lot of things that turned out to be true,
but of course he was attacked as some kind of crazy person,
but including by me, I should say.
- Damn, really?
- Yeah.
I was used as a tool.
The point is he got 23% or whatever,
I think it was 23 that year in '90s.
- Ross Perot did?
- Oh yeah.
- Wow.
- He was running basically on sort of a pre-Trump,
more restrained, more academic, you know, less Trump.
But the idea was the same,
like manufacturing is dying and it's gonna wreck the country.
We need to make things, stuff like that.
- Was it Bush, Perot, and Dukakis, you know?
Who was that?
- No, Dukakis was '88.
It was Bush, Perot, and Bill Clinton.
- Wow.
- Who was then the governor of Arkansas in 1992.
It was the first race I covered.
And Perot did really well,
despite massive hostility from the media.
Because of course they were protecting,
you know, their bosses.
- The establishment.
- Exactly.
But I didn't perceive any of this.
- 18.9% he got.
- What did he get?
- 18.9%.
- I'm sorry, 19%.
I'm embarrassed.
- Did he affect the outcome of that race?
- Well, he won it for Clinton.
I mean, Clinton won it, as you can see on the page,
at 43%, absolutely.
- If Perot didn't win, do you think that Bush wins that?
- Of course, yeah.
Oh, absolutely.
He took from Bush, yeah.
- Who is Kennedy taken from?
- What do you think?
Trump.
- You think?
- Of course.
There's no person who's thinking,
hmm, I'm gonna vote either for Joe Biden or Bobby Kennedy.
- I have some friends that are.
- No way.
- I swear.
- Really?
- I have some friends that are, that have known Bobby.
I mean, these are people that have known Bobby Kennedy
for a long time.
And, but who are Democrats, who are like, this is my guy.
The only reason you would vote for Joe Biden
is 'cause you believe there's safety in numbers.
You're voting for the party.
You're not, obviously, I'm not attacking Biden,
but you're not voting for Biden.
You're voting for the Democratic Party
'cause you think when they have more power,
you're safer or richer or whatever.
- Right.
- That's the only reason.
And Bobby Kennedy, man, I mean,
I've never seen anybody get right to the core issues,
affecting the country the way he has.
And I don't agree with him on everything,
but I mean, he names names, I mean, in a big way.
- Yeah, that's why I love him.
I think, well, I just think he can fuck.
He doesn't, I don't feel like he's in anybody's pocket.
Do you feel like low key,
there's some party that's like planted him in there?
People say that, but that's, that's crazy shit, I think.
- I mean, I feel like I know Bobby very well.
And I, I am totally convinced just on a human level
that he is an honest person.
- Me too.
- And I don't think that he would do that.
And I just have to ask.
- Are there people in his orbit who would do that?
I believe yes, is the answer.
But I don't think he knows about it,
has anything to do with it.
I think he's totally sincere.
He's certainly not in anyone's pocket.
I mean, the guy could be, his name is Bobby Kennedy.
He's the son of--
- Oh, he could do whatever.
- He could do whatever, he could do whatever.
- And he has done, he's done a ton of great stuff
with his life.
- He has, but I'm just saying,
it's very easy to be loved by everybody
and to just, it's very easy to make money
when everyone loves you.
Bobby Kennedy could have an infinitely easier life
than the one he's chosen.
He's doing this because he sincerely believes it.
Look at that, right?
And he's under threat.
I mean, I was with him on the street the other day,
this week in Washington,
and the security people around him were very nervous.
He was not nervous at all, but they were.
Anyway, the point is, I think Bobby's totally sincere,
but he is giving a massive middle finger
to the establishment,
like almost as aggressively as I've ever seen anybody.
- Yeah, why can't we get him to a level?
Because what percent does he have to get?
Oh, I guess, I don't, we don't know
because you don't know what has to win.
- We need to get the plurality.
You know, he'd need to get more than the other two.
And unfortunately, the system is set up
where it's hard for a third party guy
to get on all ballots.
I mean, they've rigged the system against
a third party challenge because they don't want that.
- Who has rigged the system, both of the parties?
- Both of the parties, yeah, of course.
Of course, they don't, I mean, once you have power,
what's your number one goal?
It's preserving it and preventing people
from challenging you, you know, of course.
