Robert F. Kennedy wants to do the same as his uncle. Like John F. Kennedy, Robert also wants to move into the Oval Office. The 69-year-old has submitted his application for the presidential candidacy in the USA. However, the Democrat is not considered undisputed.
Second candidacy on the part of the Democrats
At the beginning of March, the 70-year-old author Marianne Williamson announced her entry into the race for the seat in the White House. With Robert F. Kennedy she has her first official opponent. Meanwhile, the incumbent President, Joe Biden, is still hesitating. It is believed that Biden will run for a second term, but it is not certain.
Should Joe Biden want to run again, he would have to prevail against the challengers in internal party primaries. However, both Williamson and Kennedy are given poor chances for this. Robert F. Kennedy is by no means uncontroversial in the USA, as he has repeatedly been criticized in the past for making false claims about the corona vaccination.
Donald Trump already has a rival candidate
The candidates for next year’s upcoming US presidential election are gradually gathering not only among the Democrats, but also among the Republicans, two people have already announced their ambitions.
Donald Trump was the first to announce his intention to run again for the presidency in 2024. With Nikki Haley, he has had his first official opponent since February. The 51-year-old is a former governor of the state of South Carolina. Ron DeSantis is also expected to run for office from the Republican camp, but he has not yet officially entered the race for office.
