America without censorship: I'm not a cancel-culture guy
Q: At what point do you say that this is not about "tribalism" or "cancellation" or the terms that you're using, but just an insistence on a certain level of decency? KENNEDY: I'm not going to pick out people and say that they're evil, they should be
cancelled, or whatever. I know what my values are. I believe in the same America that my father and my uncle believed in: an America without censorship; an America that fights for our Constitution; an America that is a moral authority around the world,
that projects economic power around the globe rather than military violence--if I can get people to support that, I don't care if they're Republican or independent, or what they are.
Q: Somebody like Alex Jones has nice things to say to you; do you
say, "Alex Jones, I don't want your support"?
KENNEDY: I'm not a cancel-culture guy.
Q: That's not cancel culture. That's a principled insistence that he's a bridge too far.
KENNEDY: That's not consistent with my political philosophy.

Our priority will be to restore America's moral leadership
The country is ailing, yes, but underneath there is vitality still. America was once an inspiration to the world, a beacon of freedom and democracy. Our priority will be nothing less than to restore our moral leadership. We will lead by example.
When a warlike imperial nation disarms of its own accord, it sets a template for peace everywhere. It is not too late for us to voluntarily let go of empire and serve peace instead, as a strong and healthy nation.
