Robert F Kennedy Jr’s Medical Problems as he described them in 2012 make him unfit for the Presidency.

Here’s the thing. Mr. Kennedy is seventy years old. Mr. Trump is 77. Mr. Biden is 81. Actual comparison shows that Mr. Biden is the sharpest of the lot. Watch his State of the Union speech if you don’t believe me.

I am 70 and I wouldn’t take the job if you paid me. I would suck at it.

Mr. Kennedy, on the other hand, is apparently keen on becoming president.

There is, however, a small problem. It seems that he has a dead worm in his brain. This does not explain his affection for conspiracy theories. He did complain in a divorce action in 2012 that it was impairing his ability to think and do his job, i.e. deliver speeches.

Now, neurocysticercosis (having a dead worm in your brain) is not rare. The common pork tapeworm will do that sometimes, penetrating into the brain and encysting itself before dying. Usually this does not cause mental problems. If the worm should happen to penetrate one of your muscles, however, it will cause intense pain. This should give you a motivation for cooking your pork dishes thoroughly.

Mr. Kennedy, however, believes that this and other matters, like mercury poisoning (which he apparently really has, from eating too much tuna) have affected his ability to think.

What is worse, he has spasmodic dysphonia, which periodically makes him so hoarse he can barely speak. It is said that he had titanium implants in his vocal cords to counteract this. At his recent interview on Bill Maher’s show, his hoarseness was so bad even I could hardly understand him. So I don’t think the titanium implants are helping much.

Why, then, would he even consider running for President? He has to self-reflect a little bit, and realize that he’s not a good candidate. He has a florid case of narcissism that is driving his quixotic quest.
