Fox News
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. joined "FOX & Friends" to discuss leaving the Democratic Party and his independent campaign being denounced by members of his family.
"Leaving the party of my family is very, very difficult for me. But it was a choice that, I didn't feel that I had a choice. And I feel it's the right thing right now because we're seeing that it's the same corporate donors that control both parties, and the parties are in paralysis." Elizabeth Heckman is a digital production assistant with Fox News.
Kennedy discussed what inspired him to run as an independent, saying "we need a strategy for unity" and "bringing people together" in America.
"I think we need somebody who's going to find those areas of agreement, the values we agree on, rather than focus on these little issues that have us at each other's throats."
