Here's a happy-go-lucky 🎶 parody about the way that Robert F. Kennedy Jr is now collapsing American healthcare - based off #PaulSimon's toe-tapping "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard". It's called: "Measles and Polio Down in the Schoolyard."

"The division that's been created is absolutely disgusting. Mainly created by angry middle-aged white men who know exactly what they're doing." - Gary Neville.
