Independent candidates rarely succeed in U.S. politics, if they can make the ballot at all. But they don’t usually carry a famous last name like that of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. As voters display a lack of enthusiasm for the prospect of a Biden-Trump presidential rematch in 2024, Kennedy is emerging as an unpredictable factor in the election. Would he pull more votes from Joe Biden or Donald Trump? That question unsettles both sides. Kennedy recently campaigned in Phoenix as he tries to collect enough signatures to qualify for the ballot. Many in the crowd shared Kennedy s distrust of the government, corporations and media — and endorsed his conspiratorial views.
Some voted for Donald Trump, others for Joe Biden. A few had never wanted anything to do with politics before they heard Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on a podcast or YouTube video.
