According to RawStory, Kennedy filed his paperwork with the FEC on Wednesday afternoon, which indicated that he would run as a Democrat. His committee is reportedly called Team Kennedy, and is testing to see how much potential support he would receive for the run.
John E. Sullivan, a Florida-based attorney, is serving as the campaign's treasurer, and confirmed to the outlet that the presidential run and the FEC filing are both true.
Sullivan revealed that a formal launch of the campaign is still in the works, but that the committee is targeting April 19 as the launch date, which will take place in Boston.
In a March 10 tweet, Kennedy asked Twitter users to "help me decide whether to run for President," including a link to the Team Kennedy website.
"If it looks like I can raise the money and mobilize enough people to win, I'll jump in the race. If I run, my top priority will be to end the corrupt merger between state and corporate power that has ruined our economy, shattered the middle class, polluted our landscapes and waters, poisoned our children, and robbed us of our values and freedoms. Together we can restore America's democracy," the tweet added, looking for contributions and volunteers.
In a speech given last month at New Hampshire's St. Anselm College, Kennedy told the crowd regarding a presidential run: "I'm thinking about it, and I've passed the biggest hurdle, which is my wife has green lighted it," according to WBUR.
Kennedy will be joining author Marianna Williamson in running to unseat President Joe Biden in 2024. Republican candidates include former President Donald Trump, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, and former tech and finance executive Vivek Ramaswamy.

The first thing he should do is declare voting Dominion machines and drop boxes should be removed from all USA elections. This will bring out all of the mockingbird media and corrupt politicians and it will unite grass roots Democrats..
I mean truly, why not take the machines out of the counting entirely.
It ain't that hard if enough folks are helping with the count.
If the effing vote is fair, I'll vote - but for decades now voting has been a waste of time.
Tis all a shame and I mostly blame the donkeys.
Eff em.
Literally Running roughshod 🐎

The grand wizard is playing every instrument in his finely tuned orchestra..
Hatchet job on RFK, Jr. is new low for ‘journalism’ - from Bill Rice's Substack.
No matter - let the missiles fly - immunity is growing.
In fact it should be 1000's of times force upon the few who have harmed millions with their choice chosen for which consequence is coming because Lady Libra holds the scales in balance and she does not suffer fools and she and her minions will deliver justice to those who dare to venture in the caves of wealth and death without humility.
Book it.

My take away and what I've been telling people since the 80's, the only difference between a Democrat and a Republican, Republicans pay for sex, Democrats do not.
I'm sure when they sink in the drain of ignominy they will think to themselves screeching as they go down - maybe I should have cared about others....but probably not - they will probably die the same way they lives - pointlessly.
Then the deep state former will be subsumed and a new one will emerge much weaker.
Hopefully the new one gets nipped in the bud.
They’ve got my vote! And I don’t even vote!
Seriously though Robert, stay away from the Ambassador Hotel. The girl in the polka dot dress is looking for you.
