“I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me.”

Those words were not spoken by Robert Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr. last week. Rather, they are words of our nation’s 40th president, Ronald Wilson Reagan, who voted for Franklin Roosevelt for President all four times he headed the ticket. By the 1960s, Reagan made the formal Party switch.

The political transformation of Bobby Kennedy Jr., one of the scions of Democratic Party royalty and longtime environmental activist and lawyer, may be as impactful as Reagan’s more gradual evolution. Kennedy left his party last year to become an Independent and recently endorsed Donald Trump for president.

A less sensational but very significant related evolution by Bobby Kennedy, Jr comes from his views on climate change, which were discussed this week when Tucker Carlson interviewed him on his podcast.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
