West said Thursday he would seek the presidency as an independent candidate, choosing to forgo a run with the Green Party. The decision complicates his ability to get on the ballot—if he had won the Green nomination, it would have ensured ballot access in nearly 20 states with the potential for close to all 50 states.

GODSEND! I'm talking RFK Jr!

He's an environmental lawyer. Green weenies will love him. They got big organization and is more likable than Ralph Nader. The rats will have to do something right? No telling. Something big next year. Where's the SS protection?

Now the only thing left for RFK Jr. is to change his party affiliation for his 10/9 announcement.

I avoided the WSJ paywall by going through Realclearpolitics.com.

I really like Professor West but, I could never consider voting for him due to his stance on Israel and other matters.
I would love to see President Trump tell the uni-party to go to hell and team up with RFK Jr.

Honey West could moderate. But she’ll have to check her gun at the door.

RE: Honey West

On the great show Burke’s Law Gene Barry asked Anne Francis to wear a certain dress again, not telling her the suspect had liked it and she could get him to talk.

well, with Kornell West in the game we might as well kiss President Trump’s chances of regaining the oval orifice slim to none.

Imagine, Kornell West!!!

OK, thanks! I couldn't think of her name, she is soooo memorable, LOL, "Marianne Williamson".
Got to give her credit; she has a nice name, not "Tiffany" or "Moonbeam".

Kornell West running for president is great news. He’ll take out a percentage point of the dems core base. In some parts of the country he’ll take out more.

Cornell West couldn’t get elected even if no one else was running!

That’s the whole point. He just needs to siphon off 1-2% in some key states, and Voila, PDJT 47!!

I must be getting old, really old. Honey West immediately came to mind here.
But I’m not quite sure who Kanye West is.

He is foregoing a run as a Green. He won’t have that organization.
