<p>Imagine a candidate enters the presidential race with the most famous political name in modern American history – the nephew of an assassinated President, the son of an assassinated senator and the nephew of a powerful Senate icon. Imagine that the candidate is married to a prominent television star. Imagine that such a candidate is challenging the incumbent President of the United States of America. ; AND imagine that he is getting up to a quarter of the vote in early polls – and actually defeating the incumbent President among some demographic groups. ; Wouldn’t that be BIG political news? ; ; Not if you are Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.</p>



<p>There can be no mistake about it. ; The major news outlets – especially those on the left – are ignoring the Kennedy candidacy. ; The bosses at the networks and in the editorial boardrooms have made a conscious decision to literally censor Kennedy as a means of propping up a floundering President Biden. ; They are afraid that Kennedy could get serious traction if the people outside the New York City media bubble knew more about him. ; There can be no other reason for the lack of coverage.</p>



<p>According to polls, Kennedy is already a threat to Biden despite the news blackout. ; You see the facts in the recent New York Times/Siena College Poll. ; While most outlets reported on the Poll’s troublesome numbers in the contest between Biden and President Trump, they failed to report on the Kennedy portion of the Poll.</p>



<p>So, here they are. ;</p>



<p>In a match up between Biden, Trump and a third unspecified candidate, Trump tops Biden by 48 to 44 percent, not much interest in the nameless so-called generic candidate. But add RFK, Jr.’s name to the poll and Biden and Trump wind up in the mid-30 percentiles with Kennedy in the mid-20s.</p>



<p>The Kennedy impact is even greater with Gen Z and Independents. ; Kennedy actually beats both Biden and Trump with those voters. ; Among the 24- to 29-year-olds, it is Kennedy at 34 percent, Biden at 30 percent and Trump at 29 percent. ; With the 30- to 44-year-olds, Kennedy takes 31 percent to 30 percent for both Biden and Trump.</p>



<p>Among independent voters, the Poll shows Kennedy convincingly ahead of the two Presidents. ; He takes 39 percent of the vote to Biden’s 29 percent and Trump’s 25 percent.</p>



<p>This does not mean that Kennedy will be the 47<sup>th</sup> President of the United States. ; ; He will not be appearing on the ballot in a number of states. ; It will be tough for him to secure many Electoral College votes.</p>



<p>But … Kennedy is a very serious candidate who can have a huge impact on the 2024 presidential election. ; That is what scares team Biden – and to a lesser degree team Trump. ; There has been speculation as to who Kennedy might hurt more. ; It appears from the polling that he would take from both Biden and Trump in states where he is on the ballot. ;</p>



<p>That is a very real consideration when it comes to the battleground states. ; In Arizona, the Poll puts Trump and Biden at 33 percent each and Kennedy at 26 percent. ; In Georgia it is Trump at 36 percent, Biden at 26 percent, just 2 points ahead of Kennedy at 24 percent. ; In Michigan, Trump takes 34 percent to Biden’s 31 percent and Kennedy’s 26 percent. ;  ;Nevada goes to Trump at 38 percent, with Biden at 31 percent and Kennedy at 23 percent. ; In Pennsylvania, it is Trump and Biden at 35 percent each and Kennedy at 23 percent. ; In Wisconsin Biden tops Trump 37 to 35 percent, with Kennedy at 22 percent.</p>



<p>Kennedy does not get winning numbers, but he does get a big slice of the voter pie chart – enough to make him a major player. ; But not to the Biden-leaning media. ; They are treating him like some single digit also-ran. ;</p>



<p>Consider this. ; Kennedy is doing WAY better against Biden than Trump’s challengers are doing in the GOP primaries – and they are getting a LOT of attention.</p>



<p>Oh … and about that television star wife? ; Kennedy is married to actress Cheryl Hines, who plays the wife of Larry David in “Curb Your Enthusiasm” – one of the funniest shows on the small tube, unless you count the current presidential election contests.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>

Leftwing media is censoring RFK, Jr.
