Robert Kennedy Jr to run for president as independent in 2024 – report
theguardian.com
Robert F Kennedy Jr is reported to be ending his challenge to Joe Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination and run instead as an independent candidate, in a move that could upset the 2024 race for the White House.
Kennedy, 69 and a scion of a famous political dynasty – a son of the former US attorney general and New York senator Robert F Kennedy, and a nephew of the former president John F Kennedy – will announce his run in Pennsylvania on 9 October, according to Mediaite.
“Bobby feels that the Democratic National Committee is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go,” the website quoted a “Kennedy campaign insider” as saying.

Is it nepotism when his family is like "please Bobby, don't do this" and "please guys, don't listen to Bobby, he's got some screws loose not 'good points'"?
If you're running on your name alone and that name hasn't been popular for 50 years then yeah.
3 years ago noone knew this tiny face chucklefuck existed.
I mean, that's just running on name recognition, not nepotism.
Dude is crazy and unqualified, but he's not benefiting from nepotism. He'd need to actually be benefiting from some kind of family connections for that, and the entire Kennedy clan is running away from him.
Joe Kennedy III is a good example of a current day Kennedy nepo baby, even if he failed in his Senate bid.
