Yeah it’s not the best metric. Imagine it the other way around and you’re a progressive who came from a crazy religious Conservative family. Should whether they support you impact people’s votes?

It doesn’t have to be a great metric, she’s saying the bar is on the floor for this one. “They don’t agree with me on everything, but they agree with me enough not to vote against me.” That’s as low a bar as anyone can clear, and he doesn’t clear it.

There’s fundamentally 2 reasons why your family wouldn’t support you for President:

  • Because they suck
  • Because you suck

It’s not complicated to work out which of these applies to your hypothetical person and which of these applies to RFK, but it would undermine his run to say either out loud.

  1. They may agree with you in everything but know you have 0% chance of election so they will not waste their vote an a first past the post system.
