Ahead of US Presidential Elections, more than a dozen members of America’s most famous political family have endorsed President Joe Biden over their relative Robert F Kennedy Jr.
Mr Biden was joined by members of the Kennedy clan, which helped shape the modern Democratic Party, in Pennsylvania on Thursday.
The endorsement underlines the lack of support for Mr Kennedy Jr’s independent bid to be president within his family.
He mounted his campaign after weighing a run for the Democratic nomination.
In Philadelphia, Mr Biden was introduced by Kerry Kennedy, Mr Kennedy Jr’s younger sister.
In her remarks, Ms Kennedy did not directly mention her brother but said that there were only two candidates with “any chance of winning the presidency”.
She compared Mr Biden to her father and touted the president’s support for unions, Ukraine, and efforts to improve US infrastructure and reduce crime. She called Mr Trump “the most anti-democratic president in American history” and said he was spreading “dangerous conspiracy theories” that would have horrified her father.
“We want to make crystal clear our feeling that the best way forward for America is to re-elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to four more years,” she said.
The United States will hold a presidential election on November 5, 2024. This will be the 60th presidential election in United States history, and the first to be held after the reallocation of electoral college votes following the 2020 redistricting cycle.
Joe Biden (D) and Donald Trump (R) became the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees on March 12, 2024. The Democratic Party will make an official presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention in August 2024, and the Republican Party will make an official presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention in July 2024
