Under one particular guideline, Kennedy not only qualifies, but he'll be the only person in the country to do so, according to a letter sent to CNN.
Three advocacy groups have sent a letter to CNN claiming that the news network will be violating campaign finance laws if it fails to include Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in its June 27 presidential debate.
'This, according to the letter, violates a prohibition against using 'nomination by a particular political party as the sole objective criterion to determine whether to include a candidate in a debate.'Also problematic, according to the letter, is that both Biden and Trump have asked CNN to exclude Kennedy from the debates and, so far, the network appears to be complying, though CNN did not respond to Newsweek's request for comment.
