WHY Did Dennis Kucinich Leave the RFK Campaign?
Former Ohio Congressman and two-time presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich has served as #RFKJr's campaign manager since the start, and is now handing over the reins to #Kennedy's daughter-in-law, Amaryllis Fox-Kennedy, effective immediately.
Kucinich's announcement that he was leaving #Kennedy24 came as a surprise even to some campaign staffers, just a few days after Kucinich was onstage with Kennedy at a campaign rally in Philadelphia to declare #RFK's independence from the Democratic Party.
It appears that Kennedy and Kucinich parted on good terms (they've been friends for 30 years). In a statement, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said of the change:
“The campaign benefited enormously from the political experience of Dennis Kucinich. Dennis Kucinich has been a moral center in American politics for more than five decades. This campaign would never have experienced tremendous success during the past six months except for the leadership, wisdom, and experience he brought. We will continue to profit from his advice and judgment as we go forward.”
The campaign news release does not quote #Kucinich or otherwise explain his departure. In a phone call, Kucinich confirmed to Cleveland.com he is no longer with the campaign but declined to elaborate.
“I’m not doing interviews on that,” he said.
On this week's episode of "Strange Bedfellows" Rick and I discussed the possible reasons for Dennis' sudden departure from the campaign, and how the announcement has been received by Bobby's core base of supporters.
We also ponder why a former CIA officer is now running the campaign. Even if it's all in the family (talk about Strange Bedfellows!), we think this one's going to be a hard sell given Kennedy's outspokenness about Agency involvement in the #JFK assassination. How can he convince his supporters that this isn't a hostile Deep State takeover of his campaign?
