Just the News reports:
Several notable Libertarian figures oppose Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being the party’s presidential nomination.
“RFK has been a welcome voice on many issues. He’s also not a Libertarian, and his take on Israel and Palestine has been about as bad as it gets. If he seeks our nomination, I’ll see to it that he loses,” Spike Cohen commented.

“I have admired many aspects of RFK’s campaign. His opposition to Covid tyranny, vax mandates, the Ukraine war and the deep state have been nothing short of heroic. However, his support for the war in Gaza is disqualifying. We are THE antiwar, non-interventionist party and that’s non negotiable. Period. He will not be our nominee and I will do everything in my power to see to that,” Dave Smith said.

“This is the first I’ve heard of it and I’m pretty tied in with the party. If his entire goal is just to use the LP to get ballot access then he can kick rocks Aside from his covid/FBI takes I see no way in which he’s a libertarian,” Clint Russell said.

“The Libertarian party should not platform RFK. He is not a Libertarian. While the system is rigged against third parties independents and anyone not chosen by the private companies RNC and DNC. This does not mean we should abandon our principles,” Lars Mapstead commented.
