Under normal circumstances, a visit by the Kennedy family to the White House on St. Patrick's Day — a storied political family with Irish roots, hosted by a president of Irish heritage — might not be particularly newsworthy.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is running an independent bid to supplant President Biden, breaking with the Democratic Party and with many members of his family, who have condemned his campaign as “dangerous.”They have also pointedly backed Mr. Biden.
On Sunday, Kerry Kennedy — one of Mr. Kennedy’s sisters — posted a picture of the family on X at the White House with Mr. Biden.
“President Biden, you make the world better,” she wrote.
Mr. Biden responded to the post: “From one proud Irish family to another — it was good to have you all back at the White House.”
