    RFK jr. may or, may not pass Senate scrutiny. He has the reputation of being something of a kook.

    Elbows up!

          Fixed. I have acronym overload …

          At 4am I have a car taking me to R JFK for a flight to San Diego for the AASLD, the premier global conference of liver researchers. The acronym is too much so everyone calls it ‘The Liver Meeting’ - including the organizers themselves.

            lol.

            I always think the S stands for Society. But one of the As stands for Association. It’s the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases. Or Assload for short.

              One thing RFK proposed has my full support: Eliminating drug advertising on television.

                      To be fair, maybe Trump nominated the late RFK for NIH, and his son RFK Jr for HHS? As @Horace says, I'll withhold judgement for now.

                        Though, I’ll remind you that the former HHS Head thought boys could be girls and vice versa. I’m will to take increased scrutiny and study of potential harmful effects of vaccines if it gets rid of people wanting to chemically castrate boys and girls.

                        Very valid point. People on the left don't realize their shock at what RFK Jr has said is a similar shock to those of us who hear people honestly think men can give birth.

                              Always wise.

                              I'm also thinking we should wait to see whether a recount is called for in the presidential election. As far as I'm concerned, Trump isn't the official president elect until we wait to see if any recounts are ever done. This could take years. With wisdom, comes patience.

                              Education is extremely important.

                                  Obesity rates, car accidents, drug deaths are all MUCH higher than Europe. We have over 10 times more drug fatalities than Europe.

                                      Statistically Canadians live longer as well Probably the water, clean air and respect for institutions of law and order.

                                        One question that keeps coming up, is why do Europeans live six years longer than Americans? Is a partial reason the food additives they ban vs. the same ones that American companies can use?

                                        I think that's Kennedy's wheelhouse...Questions like the above. Can his leadership result in better health policy and health studies for Americans?

                                        Better food, more walking, same medicine.

                                        Better diet in general.

                                        It’s funny to see the same party that pilloried Michele Obama for wanting to put broccoli on lunch trays is now going to support sweeping interventions in the food industry by a life-long leftist democrat.

                                        Only non-witches get due process.

                                          You can put broccoli on school trays. And then you can rake it off in the trash.

                                          People and children need to eat healthier, but it's got to be something palatable, something they will eat, something they can afford and something they can prepare.

                                          Just say "eat this", will work as well as "just say no".
