“Our brother’s announcement Bobby Jr. It is extremely sad for us. We denounce his candidacy and believe that it is dangerous for the country“Kerry, Rory, Kathleen and Joseph Kennedy II said in a statement. They are four of the eleven children that Ethel and Bobby Kennedy had, who was assassinated in 1968, five years following her brother and president of the United States. John F. Kennedy.
The candidacy that Kerry, Rory and Joseph Kennedy II consider “dangerous for the United States” is that of another of their brothers Robert F. Kennedy Jr (RFK Jr.). The latter is a lawyer and politician of the Democratic Party but announced his departure from the current ruling party to compete for the presidency. of the United States as, as he said, “independent of all political parties”.
“Our brother Bobby’s decision to run as a third-party candidate once morest (President) Joe Biden is dangerous for our country,” Kerry, Rory and Joseph Kennedy II wrote in the public statement. ”Bobby Jr may share the same name as our father, but he doesn’t share the same valuesvision or criteria,” they noted.
Robert Kennedy Jr. uses as his campaign slogan: “Declare your independence.”
He last name Kennedy is premium quality for American politics. And beyond some police cases that that family was involved in, the assassinations of JFK and that of his brother Bobby Kennedy, place them on a platform far above any other surname of the North American politician. And although having the same name as his father does not guarantee that – as his brothers assured – the same values, vision of the country and criteria will be inherited, Bobby Kennedy displays on his new official website, the family album in black and white photos to reinforce that Kennedy DNA.
Is Robert Kennedy Jr the Javier Milei of the 2024 US elections?
“Democrats are afraid that it will ruin the (2024) election for President Biden; Republicans are afraid that he will ruin it for President Trump,” Robert Kennedy Jr. said in his first launch speech in Philadelphia. “And the truth is that “They are both right: my intention is to ruin it for both of them.”he expressed.
“I come here today to declare our independence from corruption, that robs us of well-being, our faith in the future and mutual respect. But to do that, I must first declare my own independence from the Democratic Party,” said Bobby Kennedy. “Something is stirring in America; something that tells us, ‘This doesn’t have to be this way.’ People stop me in airports , hotels, shopping centers on the street, everywhere…and they remind me that America is ready for a historic change, ready to reclaim its freedom, Their independence. And that is why I am here (…) to declare myself an independent candidate for the presidency of the United States.”
Ronna McDaniel – spokesperson for the Republican Party national committee – came out to meet Robert Kennedy Jr., whom she described as “a typical elitist liberal”. In addition, that committee published the report “Radical Democrat RFK Jr” where, for example, it details the times that this politician supported and disclosed conspiracy theories regarding COVID-19, or when he denounced electoral fraud when George Bush won the 2000 and 2004 elections. Trump, also a Republican, would do the same in 2020 when he lost the presidential re-election. For his part, Steven Cheung, vocero by Donald Trump, said that RFK Jr’s campaign “is nothing more than a vanity project for a liberal Kennedy looking to profit of his family name (…) Voters should not be fooled by anyone who claims to have conservative values.”
Three-thirds scenario in the 2024 United States elections?
Despite these criticisms from these Republicans, according to the news agency AP, RFK Jr has a better image among voters of Trump’s party than among Democrats. Even far-right and conservatives look favorably on him since RFK Jr had an anti-vaccine stance during the coronavirus pandemic.
Unlike the Republican Party, at the close of this article, the Democratic Party did not give any statement regarding the candidacy of Robert Kennedy Jr. The one who did it was Robert Reich, economist and former secretary of labor to Bill Clinton and former advisor to Barack Obama. “It pains me to say it, but RFK Jr is a dangerous right-wing nut,” Reich wrote on the social network he uses most. “While his father was a fierce advocate for racial justice, Junior has gone down a dark, racist rabbit hole to become an advocate of conspiracy theories that breed hatred and intolerance. ANDHe promoted the theory that COVID-19 was an ‘ethnic biological weapon’…intended to attack Caucasians and African Americans’, but which spared ‘Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese’. (…) And promotes another conspiracy: chemicals in water they are turning people into transgender”.
According to Robert Reich, RFK Jr’s independent candidacy is not such, but is financed by those who seek to return the Republican Party to the presidency in 2024, and more precisely Trump. For now, as mentioned before, the Republican Party does not consider him as its own nor Trump as a peer. On Fox News – the Trumpist network par excellence – RFK Jr explained that “it is very painful for me to abandon the party of my uncles, my father, my grandfather and my two great-grandfathers. Now, part of my mission is call on the Democratic Party to return to its traditional ideals”.
