Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate

[Woke Frenzy]

Now that RFK has gathered enough signatures to qualify to appear on the ballot in two key battleground states plus as write-in candidate in nine further states, the question arises who he could choose as his running mate.
My guess is Tulsi Gabbard or Dennis Kucinich.
Any thoughts?

[CosmoKramer]

Bobby Shriver. Gotta keep it in the family.

[President Johnson]

Ideally none and he just drops out.

[Progressive Pessimist]

He might as well just fuse his ticket with Cornel West.

Kucinich is a no-go, as he's running in Ohio's 7th this year as an independent.

Gabbard does seem like a possibility. For a completely off-the-wall option, maybe Edward Snowden? I don't think he's eligible thanks to 10 years of living in Russia, but I doubt they'd care.

Isn't there a member of MLK's family who's surprisingly conservative? That would definitely make for a one-two punch of a ticket.

Two comments:

Gabbard's also been mentioned as a (long-shot) possibility as a Trump running mate.

As for RFK Jr., the woman you're referring to - Alveda King - is very strongly opposed to abortion; so even though Kennedy's stands on abortion are closer to 1990s Democrats ("safe, legal and rare") versus the more liberal positions the Democrats have adopted in recent years, that would almost certain end any possibility of her being a Kennedy running mate from the start.

Andrew Yang

[AltWorlder]

For someone who's started a third party, Yang has been incredibly adverse to acting as a spoiler in any way. He's voiced support for Dean Phillips, but that's the extent of it. He turned down No Labels when they approached him. Heck, he's refused Kennedy already!

[Bea O'Problem]

Possibly Cynthia McKinney? David DuKKKe is a big fan of Cynthia McKinney. McKinney can be uspicked as a running mate to appeal to African-American voters and white supremacists.

Andrew Yang

Yang is super pro-vax. He's not going to associate with some anti-vax lunatic.

Gabbard is actively auditioning to be Trump’s running mate.

It has to be someone really whacko.

Maybe Kanye West.

I think most of RFK Jr's supporters would consider McKinney too wacko for their liking.

Ideally none and he just drops out.

That will never happen.

One that just occurred to me: Jimmy Dore

Dore cited Kennedy's anti-vax org on his videos a lot and also does the same "I'm a leftist except for nearly every remotely topical viewpoint I have" shtick.

[Utilitarian Governance]

Either Gabbard or Dore if I had to guess. West & RFK disagree too much on Israel for them to be on the same ticket.
