Environmental lawyer and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to run for president in 2024 as a Democrat.
The filing was confirmed Wednesday by his campaign treasurer, John E. Sullivan.
The 69-year-old is the son of former New York senator, US attorney general and assassinated 1968 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy.
In March, Kennedy tweeted that he was considering a run.
“If it looks like I can raise the money and mobilize enough people to win, I’ll jump in the race,” he said. “If I run, my top priority will be to end the corrupt merger between state and corporate power that has ruined our economy, shattered the middle class, polluted our landscapes and waters, poisoned our children, and robbed us of our values and freedoms. Together we can restore America’s democracy.”
His tweet pointed supporters to his website.
“Let Bobby know you want to see his leadership in the White House,” the site says while asking for donations.
This is a breaking story and will be updated.

I think he could do it and win.
He’d be a democrat for the die hard dems to vote for, but I also suspect he could get a lot of moderates and never Trumpers.
“He does sound like a hound passing a peach pit.”
He has a legit medical issue.
For all we know he could be a CIA operative. LBJ did JFK.
So far...He is the only one I would be willing to go to the poles to vote. Nobody else is worth the trouble but Trump. But I know they will NEVER put Trump back in. He will be in jail on election day.
I think the democrats really blew it when they passed her by. I would never vote for a democrat but I think she could have handily beat Trump in 2016. But noooooo, the left had to run Hillary. To their loss.
Not as bad as Hillary’s
We’ll see. I’m anything but a dunce.
“Asa Hutchinson? LOL! He’ll be lucky if he sees 1%.”
Asa will get the RINO pussy vote.
Maybe a Carter and Ted redeaux, that would be fun to watch.
JFK was good, but except for a few local Dems (when I was growing up in Connecticut, like Ella Grasso (a family friend), and Joe Leiberman), most are Marxists. If RFK Jr is on the right of Biden, I might sell popcorn here.
The peach pit eating hound dog syndrome?
A smear job sentence.
I see some chaos opportunity here.
Raise Hell, Bobby!
I guess he finally got permission from his mom.
The establishment Democrats will cheat against RFK in the WI primary just like they will cheat against any Republican in the general.
Asa will get the RINO pussy vote.
John Kasich voters are up for grabs.
Kick the libertarians out and what do we have left, the RINO neocons?
That would be two reasons not to vote for him.
>>I wouldn’t vote for him but there are a lot worse democrats<<
I agree with you.
