Activist and scholar Cornel West has announced he will run for president in 2024 as a third party candidate - promising to speak the 'truth' about issues including Ukraine, Wall Street and the Pentagon.
The 70-year-old public intellectual posted a video launching his campaign running for nomination for the far-leftist People's Party.
'I am running for truth and justice as a presidential candidate for the People's Party to reintroduce America to the best of itself - fighting to end poverty, mass incarceration, ending wars and ecological collapse, guaranteeing housing, health care, education and living wages for all!' he said in the two-and-a-half-minute announcement video.
After the first 3 words in the headline, I figured this article was a parody.

Good for Cornel. This gives the hard left a viable candidate and dilutes the democrat vote!

Intellectual means someone whose intellect has run away with his common sense; whose excessive belief in theory - ideology - trumps his reality. Someone who thinks he/she/it has superseded reality.
In other words, a Big BS Artist.

This racist seeks to steal federal campaign funds. And is jockeying for a big payoff from democrat donors as the price for him to end his “campaign.”

Memory of Lady Gaga wearing a meat dress got me thinking... If Cornel West campaigns in a Hormel vest, I might consider voting him on linguistic principle, alone.
Not really; but the idea seemed almost as silly to me as him running for the Presidency in the first place.

So, he is going to end mass incarceration, and end to poverty, wars and ecological collapse and provide free everything. He might want to let us know how he can do this when he has never accomplished anything but being an intellectual.

Honestly, I don’t think I have ever heard of this guy. The name sounds familiar but until now I had no idea who he was. It would be nice though if he could draw a bunch of the black vote away from the regular Dems. Won’t happen though, if he started being a factor, the party would pay him to go away.

Sounds like some of Bernie Sanders' words.
Is this guy looking for someone to buy him a house as a payoff?

No doubt he will suck up some votes from Black Communities who would otherwise vote for Biden.

The man is a living parody of William F Buckley as a communist race hustler.
And he is successful.
Ask Harvard University.
They paid him millions of dollars to go away...
