Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is actively seeking to join the debate stage alongside President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Despite facing significant opposition from the Biden campaign and CNN, Kennedy asserts that he meets all the criteria set by CNN for debate participation. He has provided CNN with five national polls showing him at 15%, which he claims qualifies him for the debates. Kennedy has accused the Biden administration of attempting to exclude him from the debates by changing the rules and removing the Commission on Presidential Debates from the process. He is currently in discussions with CNN and remains confident that he will meet the requirements to participate in the June 27 debate. A recent poll indicates that 71% of voters want third-party candidates like Kennedy included in the debates. Kennedy held a rally in Aurora, Colorado, as part of his efforts to get on the Colorado ballot. He also mentioned that Biden's staff instructed CNN to prevent his participation, but he believes CNN's plan to exclude him is backfiring.

I don’t think there’s a good justification for excluding RFK Jr. from debates. And that’s not an endorsement of anything he says or does.
Burgum suggests RFK Jr. attend debates to ‘expose’ him as the ‘Democrat that he is’ https://t.co/jWrOAb9rsk
I support @realDonaldTrump for POTUS 100%, but I think it would be good to see @RobertKennedyJr on the debate stage as well. He will fuck @JoeBiden the same way Ross Perot fucked Bush in 92.
DEBATE: Biden’s demand that CNN prevent RFK Jr from debating is an illegal violation of federal election law. Ironically under CNNs rules RFK qualifies but Trump and Biden don’t since they won’t be their party’s nominees until AFTER the debate. https://t.co/MObzXN5B1O
RFK Jr. Supporters: from Trump Deserters to Ex-Democrats, They’re Hungry for Change https://t.co/chsl0MKYBH
RFK: Biden ordered I couldn’t be in the debate. CNN: we won’t let him don’t worry. But now RFK qualifies. He said they had a meeting with CNN today, but CNN said they couldn’t find the guy who was leading it and canceled. Thoughts? Biden/CNN lie. https://t.co/BuO9XBVQqy
