Cornel West, civil rights activist and socialist, to run for president in 2024

We’re going to end up with 5 billion candidates next year.

Oh, no, not him. Zero chance. Go away please and keep your monumental ego away from the world.

I will advise him.

I hope he's running as a Repig because the only candidate we need on the Democratic side is Biden.

The goal is to win and beat the Repigs. Not to divide. And in swing states, we don't need any division. The Electoral College is too volatile and the percentage of winning is razor thin.

R3 Cornel West crazy ass might be running as a goddam commie. Who knows with him lol. Brilliant mind though.

by Anonymousreply 4June 6, 2023 2:03 AM

He's an egomaniac - this is only about him trying to tear down both parties and make him sound smart and above it all.

He will offer nothing - just constant fucking criticism over and over again and then some wild, never-gonna-happen demands that no one will support.

THEN he will cry racism and fly away.

Another delusional narcissist attempting to derail Democrats by running as a third party candidate. Just when you thought Bernie Sanders was politically dead and buried, here comes the male Maya Angelou who thinks he's Che Guevara ready to monopolize the follow spot.

Watch his debate with Jordan Peterson and Stephen Fry on YouTube. West was destroyed. Such a fucking grifter and a clown. That party’s founded is a sexual predator too.

Isn't he an anti semite?

Crazy, narcissistic, done-him-wrong black man

Running for any office gives you access to all that big money from the party's treasure chest. I doubt that half the Republicans running against Trump for the nomination cared if they were nominated or not. They just wanted the money. In fact, that's the main reason Trump was running; he was shocked that he won.

I had no idea about Cornel. I’m really sad to hear he’s such an asshole. I assumed he was doing this to push Joe to the left.

The Rent is Too Damn High!

But he’s probably just hoping to get access to a dental plan and a presidential barber for once.

Why do all communists have to look like such mangy fucking losers? Are toothbrushes and soap tools of the privileged few?

by Anonymousreply 13June 6, 2023 4:24 AM

Doesn’t he have a big gap between his front teeth?

by Anonymousreply 14June 6, 2023 5:13 AM

He’s an admitted Marxist and an idiot.

Grifter and clown...Then he's in good company with Peterson.

Cornell looks like the kind of guy who has sex wearing black dress socks and a white undershirt.

Blacula and the wolfman had a baby

Is he still married to the white lady he would make fly separately so they weren’t seen together?

R19 lol, how subversive. Oh well if she likes it I love it.

by Anonymousreply 20June 6, 2023 1:11 PM

R12 Cornel is not an asshole. Do not let DL taint your opinion. Everyone is not so nice. Every public personality is an asshole to DL except some high strung diva. And even then they consider her cunty but it’s admirable.

by Anonymousreply 21June 6, 2023 1:13 PM

West is on his fifth wife, and he is definitely a diva in an academic sense.

As much as he bitches about egalitarianism in America, he attended Ivy League schools and spent most of his career at them. You won’t see this Man of the People at Alabama A&M.

I loved his Rent is Too Damn High stuff from several years ago.

We need disparate voices included in the campaign for president. Biden and Trump together don’t cover all the range of opinions and experiences.

by Anonymousreply 24June 6, 2023 1:29 PM

R22. Cornel West has been to Howard, Moorehouse. Why are you just making things up. Criticisms aside, nearly all these these uber liberal academic or Hollywood elites have attended Ivy League universities.

by Anonymousreply 25June 6, 2023 1:58 PM

R25 Yes, just like “middle class champion” Elizabeth Warren, with her BMW, her Cambridge mansion, and her thirty years of paychecks from Harvard’s elite.

The political class are utterly fully of shit. They never live like the rest of us, and you’re a fool if you believe they actually care about your needs.

Election madness has already begun....and I am so sick of it all. Can I avoid EVERYTHING to do with it for an entire year?

You’ll need more than 12 months

If running for president makes Cornel West's pompous ass too busy to be a guest on Bill Maher's show, then I'm all for it.

But he's hoping to tear apart the democrats before he's done. He will end up making a lot of black people stay home on voting day

He wasn't " the rents toodamn high guy" that guy was an old man.

R30 are you saying it was Michael Eric Dyson in the debate and not Cornel West.

by Anonymousreply 35June 7, 2023 2:49 PM

I thought this thread would be Cornel is Dead to Me

by Anonymousreply 36June 7, 2023 3:05 PM

He's my candidate, because he is a victim of institutional racism about which I will never be silenced.

R35 No, Rose. I'm saying noted juju man Cornel West worked his hoodoo powers to assume the body of Michael Eric Dyson during the 2018 Munk debates.
