Kennedy launched his campaign as a Democrat but declared last fall that he was instead running as an independent.
AURORA, Colo. — Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told supporters at a rally in Aurora on Sunday that his candidacy can mend a deeply divided country by focusing on what unites Americans.
“Do you want a president who’s going to make Americans forget that they’re Democrats and forget that they’re Republicans, and remember that we are all Americans?” Kennedy asked a cheering crowd of more than a thousand people, who packed a converted airplane hangar at Stanley Marketplace. “That’s why you’re here today. I’m going to do that for this country.”
The environmental attorney and scion of one of the country’s most famous political families said that reelecting either President Joe Biden or former President Trump to another term won’t bring the change he said voters have told him they want since he launched his campaign a year ago.
“If we give them another four years, either one of them, we’re going to see more of the same,” he said to groans from the crowd. “Do you want to see more of the same? You elect me president, everything’s going to change.”
Attendees at the rally suggest Kennedy could draw support from both sides of the political spectrum.
