Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent presidential candidate, held a news conference from the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, commending President Biden for stepping away from the 2024 presidential race. Kennedy stated that Biden’s infirmities and abandonment of Democratic Party principles prompted him to enter the race as an alternative to Donald Trump. He called for the Democrats to have an open process in selecting their nominee through neutral polling instead of hand-picking a candidate chosen by DNC elites. Kennedy emphasized the importance of democracy and selecting a candidate who can best beat Trump. It remains unclear who the Democratic nominee will be, with support for Vice President Kamala Harris but Kennedy advocating for a neutral polling process. Kennedy believes he is the only candidate who can beat Trump head-to-head, although he has been critical of the networks for not allowing him to join the debate. It is uncertain if Kennedy will be allowed to participate in future debates. Kennedy’s announcement from the Kennedy Compound has sparked interest in the 2024 presidential race and the selection of a Democratic nominee.
