38. I'm originally from Massachusetts and it is abhorrent he's a Kennedy

Big fan of the Kennedys. I lived there during the JFK years. I also worked for RFK Sr.'s presidential campaign, which, I think was my first venture into doing political stuff (I was still a teen.), and saw RFK at a campaign stop the night before he was shot. Also saw Teddy, too. Despite what has been written in some circles since about them since, the Kennedys were (and I believe) still are loved there. The fact that RFK Jr. is what he is makes me sick.

p.s. We used to spend summers on the Cape and I always wanted to visit Hyannisport where the Kennedy compound was, but we never did. Sigh.

That's not "polls." It's *a* poll, and not a very convincing one, when you consider that Ocelot II Jun 2023 #15

Which polls are those? ZZenith Jun 2023 #6
