KNOXVILLE, TN—OCT. 14, 2023—Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is hitting the campaign trail to celebrate his launch of an independent run for president of the United States of America. Following much anticipation, Kennedy made his announcement Oct. 9 on the lawn of Independence Hall in Philly.

During the month of October, he will visit Texas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Ohio.

He will share with voters his vision of what becomes possible outside of traditional partisan politics.

In his announcement speech, Kennedy said, “Locked in their habitual debates, the two parties are often blind to commonsense solutions. This formula has left them barely able to govern.”

“The system runs on inertia, year after year, decade after decade. It’s like a runaway bus full of teenagers fighting about who should take the wheel, not realizing that the driver merely follows the GPS set by the crooked insiders and corporate lobbyists,” Kennedy continued.

“I’m not just going to take the wheel. I’m going to reboot the GPS. And do you know who is going to set the destination? You are.”

Kennedy is hosting the following events. More events will be announced soon.
