Independent U.S. presidential candidate RFK Jr now has until March 5 to get on the ballot in Utah

 At a recent rally in Kansas City, Missouri, Kennedy asked the crowd of about 300 voters for help. The state requires independent candidates to collect 10,000 signatures by July 29 to appear on the 2024 general election presidential ballot. ...

The requirements for ballot access for candidates who are not the Democratic or Republican nominees vary widely from state to state, and the first deadlines are in early March, for North Carolina and Utah. Utah originally required independent candidates to file by Jan. 8, 2024, but earlier this month — soon after Kennedy filed a lawsuit against the state — it changed the date to March 5. ...

Kennedy's ballot access drive will also be heavily underwritten by the super PAC supporting him, American Values 2024. In December, the super PAC announced it would be investing $10 million to $15 million to put him on the ballot in at least 10 states . . ..

More.

The story likes to compare RFK Jr. to H. Ross Perot, but there's no way that RFK Jr. has anything close to the same appeal Perot once had and which still won him nothing.

Kennedy admits he's a spoiler, but most Americans still want a serious, positive candidacy, not a nattering nabob of negativism.

The Number One Reason No One Would Even Think Of Assassinating Obama

No one would want a mental case like this running the country:



Rep. Mike Doyle (D-Pa.) said “we have negotiated with terrorists,” and the story quotes Biden agreeing, saying: “They have acted like terrorists.”

(source)

Picking Biden actually was a sign of intelligence in the young president, though it kind of makes you lonesome for the days of the nattering nabobs of negativism.

The Veep only seems like a loose cannon on the ship of Obama, but his penchant for screw loose partisanship and outrageously inaccurate comments both get to fly under the dim pall of his brain aneurysm in 1988. He possesses a kind of sacrosanctity because of his illness, which consequence Obama skilfully exploits in order to push the radical envelope.

Obama may very well not know what to do in the positive sense, and even if he did he would choose against it, but he does know what he needs in the negative sense: unapologetic, partisan rhetoricians on whom no one can lay a finger.

Which also helps explain the choice of Jewish female Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz, who possesses double sacrosanctity.

Caligula picked a horse.
