The Kennedy family has endorsed President Biden in a significant rebuke of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential campaign. With 15 members expected to attend, including Kerry Kennedy, the event took place in Philadelphia. The endorsement was not surprising, as the family has previously expressed support for Biden. However, it is still a significant rejection of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has relied on his family connections during his campaign, asserting that his administration would continue the ideals of his father and uncle.
Kerry Kennedy spoke about her family’s support for Biden at the event, emphasizing that President Biden has championed the rights and freedoms her father and uncles stood for. Despite this endorsement, several siblings have criticized Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s candidacy for potentially aiding in former President Trump’s reelection. In October, Kerry, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Joe Kennedy II, and Rory Kennedy stated that their brother’s candidacy is “dangerous to our country” and does not align with their family values.
Kerry expressed concern over how their father would view Trump’s behavior and lies compared to Biden’s commitment to equal justice, human rights, and freedom. The family fears that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s candidacy could divert votes from Biden and help Trump secure a win in the election.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., however, faced controversy for spreading conspiracy theories about vaccines and for his comments regarding the Capitol attack on January 6th 2021. This public rejection of his candidacy underscores the deep divide within the Kennedys over his political ambitions.
Overall, this endorsement by the Kennedy family represents a significant rebuke of Robert F
