q_q_:
can a kohen be the messiah?
was rabbi meir kahane a kohen?
(nobody draw conclusions! we all accept the rambam, that if the man dies , or rather, "is killed", then he cannot be the messiah!)
Tzvi Ben Roshel1:
No,
(their is an opinion that if he doesn't come from Ben David he can come from someone else, but it is not accepted, Ben David will come from David).
And Rabbi Kahane was a Kohen.

kahaneloyalist:
Ben David must be from David HaMelech, but the Vilan Gaon writes of the other Mashiach, Mashiach Ben Yosef who comes first. The Vilna Gaon's students in his name said in Kol HaTor; Mashiach Ben Yosef would be a Kohen.
Lubab:
No.
