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.

IMHO West is just playing for cash. People will pay him to drop out soon to keep from stealing Dim votes.
He’s all that and sadly a high school classmate of mine.
Cornhell West wants to replace Cornhole Biden?
Y’all know any freepers that will vote for cornel west?
Me Neither...
He’s going to draw votes off of briben and or democrats.
If he gets on the ballot and enough of the Leftist voters who love him are dumb enough to vote for him, he’ll just take votes from the official Dim nominee,whoever that may be.
I would love to see President Trump tell the uni-party to go to hell and team up with RFK Jr.

Utterly ridiculous.
He’ll take out a percentage point of the dems core base. In some parts of the country he’ll take out more.

Now, if we could just get Oprah to throw her hat in the ring as an independent candidate...........
I’m gonna work to get Mr. West on the general election ballot in the state of Alabama. He’ll take votes away from Biden.
West-Kennedy or Kennedy-West would be more likely to happen.
But it won’t happen.
Who would be #1 and who would be #2?

Alabma’s blue/purple?
That's too bad. He may not even get on the ballot in many states.
Republicans should make sure they sign his ballot petitions in Wisconsin, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, and Pennsylvania - at the very least, make sure he is on those ballots. Secondary effort once those are secured - get him on the ballots in New Hampshire, Maine, Virginia, Minnesota, Nevada, and New Mexico.
