More than 15 members of the storied Kennedy political family will endorse U.S. President Joe Biden at a Philadelphia campaign event on Thursday in a rebuke of Robert F. Kennedy Jr's independent bid for office.
Many in Robert F. Kennedy Jr's elite family - prominent Democrats since the 19th century - have broken with him over his views.
"I can only imagine how Donald Trump's outrageous lies and behavior would have horrified my father, Robert F. Kennedy," Robert F. Kennedy Jr's younger sister Kerry Kennedy will say at the Biden campaign event, according to prepared remarks. "Daddy stood for equal justice, human rights, and freedom from want and fear. Just as President Biden does today."
Kerry Kennedy and other members of the family are then expected to join local volunteers in door-knocking and phone-banking on Biden's behalf, campaign aides said.
Caroline Kennedy, daughter of the slain president, was appointed ambassador to Australia by Biden. She had served as ambassador to Japan under Democratic President Barack Obama.
"I have a big family," Robert F. Kennedy Jr told Reuters last month. "Many of them are working in my campaign. Not everybody agrees with me."
