The outspoken vaccine opponent wants to run for incumbent Joe Biden’s Democratic Party, according to a document Kennedy submitted to the National Election Commission on Wednesday (local time). Kennedy has been criticized several times in the past for spreading false claims about the corona vaccination.
The 69-year-old is the second Democratic nominee for the presidential nomination. At the beginning of March, 70-year-old writer Marianne Williamson officially announced her participation in the race.
Biden has not yet officially announced his intention to run again in the 2024 presidential election. A candidacy from the incumbent is generally expected. If he were to try again for the top state office, his challengers would first have to overcome him in internal party elections. However, both applicants get very poor chances for this.
In addition to ex-President Donald Trump, former US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson are also candidates for the Republican nomination for president. (sda/dpa)
