Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared in a nostalgic ad during the Super Bowl on Sunday between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers.
The spot that played just before half time mimicked an ad that aired for Kennedy’s late uncle, former President President John F. Kennedy, during his 1960 campaign for the White House.
It featured the jingle and a slide show with images from the original commercial, including signs blaring the Kennedy name, as well as photos of Robert Kennedy Jr. that were made to look retro.
American Values 2024, a super PAC that is supporting Kennedy’s campaign, said it paid for the contents of the 30-second advertisement — air time that reportedly was going for up to $7 million during this year’s big game.
Our momentum is growing. It’s time for an Independent President to heal the divide in our country. 🇺🇸#Kennedy24
