Justin Trudeau's half-brother promoting RFK Jr. and open-source peace-through-dance on Church Street.
An AI-generated reggae song blasted onto the Green Tuesday afternoon from atop a cross-country bus on a mission to elect a third-party presidential candidate — while bringing about world peace through “high-vibration” partying.
The song was called “Kennedy.” Kyle Kemper, the man behind the wheel of the bus, created it to promote Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s vaccine-skeptical, bitcoin-bullish, Deep State-targeting third-party presidential campaign.
Kemper took words from a campaign theme song Kennedy’s uncle, JFK, used for the 1960 presidential campaign. He tapped into AI to generate a reggae track out of it.
He blasts the song from the truck as he visits cities across the country promoting the campaign as, he said, a volunteer “independent grassroots” activator. Click here to watch a video he made with the candidate last year when he launched the tour.
Kemper is neither a Democrat nor a Republican, he said. “I’m a liminal being, meaning I don’t identify with either of these two party constructs.”
He’s also the half-brother of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau — who didn’t fare well in a conversation Kemper just had with Tucker Carlson. Kemper also has made the news as a promoter of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency.
As the “Kennedy” reggae number blared from the “The Remedy Is Kennedy”-emblazoned bus parked on Church Street alongside the Green Tuesday, Kemper and Meriden-based Kennedy campaigner Amber Webster handed Kennedy flyers to passersby. They asked people to sign petitions to place Kennedy’s name on the Nov. 5 general election ballot.
“This is my first campaign,” Webster said. “I’m a mom. I have two little ones. So I’m a big medical freedom advocate.” Kemper urged people to “release themselves from the identity of being a Republican or a Democrat. You are a human being.”
Kemper, who is based in Sarasota, Florida, actually does belong to a party, he clarified: the Decentralized Dance Party.
The group bills itself as an “Open-Source Party Movement on a mission to unite the world in celebration and win the Nobel Peace Prize for Partying.”
“We host gigantic street parties,” Kemper said. “We have an FM radio transmitter. We get hundreds of boom boxes all tuned to the same channel. We go to public spaces and invite everybody to come participate in dance. Music can bring people to come together and drop their egos, get people to dance. We encourage costumes and props. High vibration music.
“That’s how we bring world peace. It’s not through bombs. It’s through music.”
The group planned just a brief stop. The itinerary called next for picking up some pizza, then driving to Brooklyn to meet with fellow Kennedy supporters. Next they’ll be making stops in Pittsburgh and Grand Rapids, Michigan, gathering all the vibes they can muster along the way.
