Cornel West Announces Run For President As Third-Party Candidate

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Interesting. What do you think?

I think he might get .02% of the vote.

 

[Lakhota]

Looks like we've been moved to the dead zombie zone.

 

[Synthaholic]

He's loony tunes.

Racist.

 

[Synthaholic]

Let's hope he gets 90% of the Black vote.

Highly doubtful.

Political activist and academic Cornel West announced on Monday that he is running for president as a third-party candidate.

“In these bleak times, I have decided to run for truth and justice, which takes the form of running for president of the United States as a candidate for the People’s Party,” West said in a video on Twitter. “I enter in the quest for truth, I enter in the quest for justice, and the presidency is just one vehicle to pursue that truth and justice – what I’ve been trying to do all of my life.”

West, 70, is the latest Black candidate to enter the 2024 presidential race, after Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) launched his campaign last month and California radio host Larry Elder joined the GOP race in April. The author was a professor of the practice of public philosophy at Harvard University, and focuses much of his social criticism on race, gender and class in American society.

“We’re not talking about hating anybody, we’re talking about loving, we’re talking about affirming, we’re talking about empowering those who have been pushed to the margins,” West said in his video. “Because neither political party wants to tell the truth about Wall Street, about Ukraine, about the Pentagon, about Big Tech.”

The video also included a clip of West complaining to media figure Bill Maher about how the two options voters have are “neofascists like brother Trump or milquetoast neoliberals like brother Biden.”

Ten votes MAX and 6 of them will be dead people. Still better than Biden, though.

Initial thoughts:

'Neo-liberals like brother Biden'?

Biden is a corrupt, criminal, compromised, traitorous, rich, white, racist, elitist, Socialist Authoritarian ... anyone who would call him 'brother' isn't worth a damn.

Another 70+ old potential President?
No thanks.

Need to find out a lot more about him before any real further thoughts / opinions.

 

[AMart]

Dusty stinky old head.

 

[AMart]

Let's hope he gets 90% of the Black vote.

Omg what a blessing

 

[Viktor]

You should vote for him

The guy is a babbling nut who makes no sense at all.Do we really want a President who knows only African American Studies???

 

[j-mac]

I'm very proud to admit that! President Biden is doing a great job! Go Joe!

BTW, please "define" his corruption and provide "credible" proof.

Oh gheeze….really?

No, but these loons seem to love him….I say vote

 

[j-mac]

You should too.

Not even in your alternate world…

 

[EMH]

I would enjoy watching West debate Scott. West is quite the scholar.

A better debate would be West against Dave Chappelle as "Conspiracy Brother"

That would be fun to watch...

 

[TNHarley]

He is better than the two main ones in the running right now, even though he is a statist.

 

[Polishprince]

Sl

Why should "I" vote for him? Why not you?

I wouldn't vote for Mr. West because he is a Libtard who I disagree with policy wise, and those libs who go for that kind of thing are whom need to consider his candidacy.

In any event, it will be interesting seeing Sleepy Joe ripping this guy up- pointing out that West is not really black if he doesn't support Brandon.

 

[DudleySmith]

He's loony tunes.

Which is why sociopaths think he's a 'scholar n stuff'.

 

[Polishprince]

The black lib I'd like to see throw their hat into the 2024 race is Delaware's own Corn Pop. Mr. Pop has a lot of history with the Bidens and there would be some real heat there. I could see tuning into a debate between Joe Biden and Corn Pop and hear the other side of the story at the Wilmington pool.
