  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Democrat Chris Kennedy, 53, has said he will run for Illinois governor in 2018

  • Kennedy sent an email and video to his supporters to announce his running

  • He brings name recognition as son of Senator Robert Kennedy and nephew of former President John F Kennedy

  • Announced he is running because Illinois is heading 'in the wrong direction'
And with the election of Chris Kennedy, Illinois will be rocketing in the wrong direction.
Yeah. We need more Kennedys in govt. And more dynasties, too.

#1 As an Illinoisian I am just plain tired of being "saved" by people whose worst experience in life was a late limo driver. YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BEFORE YOU DECLARE AN ANSWER. Kennedy has no concept of what the problems in Illinois are and their root causes. Maybe the Donks should run Bruno from Danville instead. Oh that's right he voted for Rauner and Trump instead.

#2 The Kennedys have been warned. They should find other ways to spend their days. I'm sick of them all. Just like the idiot clintons.

#4 He's not a real Kennedy until he kills a woman.

Snark of the day.

#6 There are 321.42 million people in the U.S. Certainly we ought to be able to find someone not named Clinton, Kennedy or Bush.

#7 As a member of a neighboring state, let me just say I welcome all crackheads and gang members fleeing to more profitable ground.

#8 because of Union extorted pensions, cities and counties and various agencies in Illinois are all headed for bankruptcy (although perhaps not the State itself)

Electing a leftist for gov will simply accelerate this situation
