Prominent civil rights activist and former Harvard Divinity School philosophy professor Cornel West is running for president, he announced in a social media post Monday.

West is running as a presidential candidate not under the Democrat party but the People’s Party, which describes itself as a “major new independent party that will guarantee health care, housing, quality education, and peace to all.”

“In these 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 an announcement video posted to social media, explaining that the presidency is “one vehicle to pursuit a truth and justice.”

He’s Joe Biden without the wars and he’s for Medicare4All.

That’s it.

Hannity likes to have him on from time to time and so I suppose you’ll be able to see him there.

The Democrats should give him a trillion dollars of reparations!

Hannity and West—that must be some clown show—would probably lower your IQ a point for every minute you watched...

Cornel West ?

Many years ago, a coworker kept a framed photo of him on her desk..

I did not ask why.

Sorry Cornell, but the party you describe is not new. It's called communism and it began in 1917. Socialized anything is bound for under-performance and oversight by corrupt government administrators, i.e., the unaccountable administrative state. The following is a good read on the pathetic trajectory and so-called quality of "socialized medicine":

It is hilarious whenever he appears anywhere.

He always gets an introduction from some big shot explaining how brilliant West is—and then Cornell opens his mouth and starts babbling incoherently.

Was it his brave and historic march on the Ferguson Police dept after Michaels Browns unfortunate demise?

He is running to make others look moderate. That is his only purpose. He knows it. He hopes to bring the middle far to the left.
