Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former professional wrestler turned-Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura as potential running mates for his independent campaign for president, Kennedy's campaign confirmed to CBS News. Kennedy, who is running as an independent and polling nationally in double digits against President Biden and former President Donald Trump, has secured ballot access in Hawaii, New Hampshire, Utah and Nevada, according to the campaign.
The Super Bowl-winning quarterback has publicly shared the same anti-COVID-19 vaccine sentiment as Kennedy, and Rodgers publicly endorsed Kennedy in November 2023. Rodgers has admitted he misled the public in 2021 about being 'immunized' against COVID, despite not getting the COVID vaccine, and has cast doubt on the effectiveness of vaccines. Kennedy is a lawyer and environmental activist who became a leading anti-vaccine and government public health critic during the pandemic.
