I support Mr. Kennedy because: 1. He wants to end the American empire abroad, bring our troops & resources home, and invest in the American people. (Non-interventionist) 2. He has dedicated his life to protecting our environment, and he is a classic environmentalist who believes keeping our air, soil, and water clean. He also values and has a deep respect for our nation's vast landscapes, ecosystems, and wildlife. 3. He believes in freedom, transparency, and accountability for the health and wellbeing of every American! 4. He believes in the U.S. Constitution, and he will dismantle the corrupt merger of corporate & government power to protect our civil liberties granted to us by the Constitution. 5. He supports our veterans. 6. He believes in securing the border while also providing a legal and humanitarian path to citizenship. 7. He is committed to restoring our communities, healing the division within them, and providing real solutions to the disparity within them as well. 8. He supports workers' rights, encourages trades, and wants to restructure higher education for the American Middle/Working Class. Additionally, as someone who has met and has had personal interactions with Mr. Kennedy, I can tell you that he is the most genuine person and most legitimate candidate of my lifetime! When the Democratic Party tried to keep him out of the primary, he did not give up, and leaving the party of his father, uncle, and grandfather must have taken a lot of strength and courage to do. I am incredibly proud and honored to be a part of the greatest Independent run for the presidency in the history of the United States, and this grassroots movement will continue to change the course of my life forever.
