RFK v. Biden

RFK v. Biden is a summary of campaign issues between rivals RFK Jr. and the elderly Joe Biden for the 2024 Democrat nomination for president.

Comments by RFK Jr. about Biden:

“

I just disagree fundamentally with him on where the country is going. I don’t want Wall Street running the country. I don’t want the neocons running our foreign policy. I don’t like censorship. I think I’m skeptical about [the Ukraine] war ... [which he said the U.S. should try to settle.

”

RFK Jr. rebukes Biden on the transgender agenda:

“

I am against people participating in women's sports who are biologically male. I think women have worked too hard to develop women's sports over the past 30 years...and I don't think that's fair.

”

RFK Jr. appointed former Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), a pro-life critic of foreign wars, as his campaign manager. Kucinich is a veteran of several of his own presidential runs.
