Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Enters 2024 Presidential Race as Independent Candidate
Kennedy's Mission: End Wars, Clean Up Government
Environmental Lawyer and Author Announces Run
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an environmental lawyer, author, and member of the Kennedy family, has officially announced his candidacy for President of the United States as an independent.
Kennedy, known for his advocacy for environmental protection and public health, announced his long-shot bid to challenge President Biden at a rally in Washington, D.C. on April 19, 2023.
In his speech, Kennedy outlined his platform, which includes ending "forever wars," cleaning up government, increasing wealth for all Americans, and "telling Americans the truth."
Lack of Enthusiasm for Major-Party Candidates Fuels Interest in Alternatives
Kennedy's entry into the race comes as polls show a lack of enthusiasm among Americans for a rematch between President Biden and former President Trump.
This has led to increased interest in alternative candidates, particularly those outside the two major parties.
- According to a recent poll, only 35% of Americans are excited about the prospect of a Biden-Trump rematch.
- Nearly half of Americans (48%) say they are looking for a different candidate.
Kennedy's independent candidacy is likely to appeal to voters who are dissatisfied with the choices offered by the major parties.
