00:00So, your past of undermining confidence in vaccines with unfounding or misleading arguments
00:07concerns me.
00:09Can I trust that that is now in the past?
00:13Can data and information change your opinion, or will you only look for data supporting
00:18a predetermined conclusion?
00:20You gotta follow it, man.
00:21There's a lot of people that look to you for, do I get vaccinated or not?
00:28People that I kind of know.
00:30I'm going to be an advocate for a strong science.
00:34You show me those scientific studies, and you and I can meet about it.
00:40And there are other studies as well, and I'd love to show those to you.
00:46Does a 70-year-old man, 71-year-old man who spent decades criticizing vaccines, and who's
00:52financially vested in finding fault with vaccines, can he change his attitudes and approach now
00:58that he'll have the most important position influencing vaccine policy in the United States?
01:08Will you continue what you have been, or will you overturn a new leaf at age 70?
01:14I recognize, man, if you come out unequivocally, vaccines are safe, it does not cause autism,
01:21that would have an incredible impact.
01:24That's your power.
01:27So what's it going to be?
01:29Will it be using the credibility to support lots of articles, or will it be using credibility
01:35to undermine?
01:38And I gotta figure that out for my vote.
01:41So that's my dilemma, man.
01:43And you may be hearing from me over the weekend.
01:45You may be hearing from me over the weekend.
01:47I once again thank you for your time.
01:50There's many times I've been wrong about science.
01:52If you look at my Instagram account, when I'm wrong, I apologize for it.
01:57I say I was wrong.
01:58I don't have any problem.
02:01Science is a process of challenging hypotheses with new evidence.
02:07Were the scientists who told us that the COVID vaccine was imperative, and President Trump
02:12who told us that it was this great thing, were they right, or were you right?
02:17Was the vaccine, COVID vaccine, successful in saving millions of lives?
02:22I don't know.
02:23We don't have a good surveillance system, unfortunately.
02:25You don't know?
02:27I don't think anybody can say that.
02:29If you show me science, it says that.
02:31But you know, Bob, you say, if I show you, you're applying for the job.
02:34I mean, clearly, you should know this.
02:37And that is, the scientific community has established that, that COVID vaccine saved
02:43millions of lives.
02:44And you're casting doubt.
02:45Finally, I want to ask you, you said you were on a show on February 26, 2021, an interview
02:54with Dr. Judy Mikovits, where you said the following, and I quote,
02:59We should not be giving black people the same vaccine schedule that's given to whites, because
03:06their immune system is better than ours.
03:10Can you please explain what you meant?
03:12There's a series of studies, I think most of them by Poland, that show that to particular
03:20antigens that blacks have a much stronger reaction.
03:25There's differences in reaction to different products by different races.
03:29So I have 17 seconds, let me just ask you then.
03:31So what different vaccine schedule would you say I should have received?
03:37What different vaccine schedule should I have received?
03:40I mean, the Poland article suggests that blacks need fewer antigens.
03:48This is so dangerous.
03:50Mr. Kennedy, with all due respect, that is so dangerous.
03:54Your voice would be a voice that parents would listen to.
03:57That is so dangerous.
03:58I will be voting against your nomination because your views are dangerous to our state and
04:03to our country.
04:04I mean, do you think science is dangerous, Senator?
04:08It's like we're moving the chairs on the Titanic.
04:11The ship is sinking.
04:14We need to refocus if we're going to save our country with this is existential.
04:20Our country is not going to be destroyed because we get the marginal tax rate wrong.
04:25It is going to be destroyed if we get this issue wrong.
04:28And I am in a unique position to be able to stop this epidemic.
