Many Democrats (and even some Kennedys) wish Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would simply slink away and disappear, like an embarrassing party guest.
That doesn’t necessarily make him a serious contender for the Democratic nomination, but his famous last name has made him relevant so far. Kennedy is the son of slain former Attorney General and U.S. Senator Bobby Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1968 while running for president himself. He talks about himself as continuing the legacy of his father and his uncle, former President John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1963.
New Hampshire Democrats are fighting with the national Democratic Party, which has stripped the state of its coveted spot as the first primary contest in the nominating process. If New Hampshire defies the Democratic Party’s decision and goes first anyway, as it seems intent on doing, it would render the contest noncompliant, the result would not count, and Biden’s name would not be on the ballot there.
“Kennedy won’t win, but he can hurt Biden, and that’s the point,” said Mary Anne Marsh, a Massachusetts Democrat who worked for Robert Kennedy Jr.’s uncle, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass. But Kennedy is best known as a vaccine critic. He has devoted himself for years to questioning the safety and efficacy of numerous vaccines.
