Scholar and activist Cornel West announces he's running for president in 2024.


Sad part is this will be overshadowed by that idiot Mike Pence announcing his pointless run.

TEXT:

Activist and scholar Cornel West has announced he will run for president in 2024 with the People’s Party.

The notorious intellectual posted a video launching his campaign on Monday wrote: '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!

West is a celebrity in intellectual circles as well as popular culture, and made appearances in Hollywood films such as The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions.

He is a radical Democrat and socialist who is often outspoken on left-wing political issues.

West has previously called the US a 'racist patriarchal' nation where white supremacy rules all aspects of everyday life.

'White America,' he once wrote, 'has been historically weak-willed in ensuring racial justice and has continued to resist fully accepting the humanity of blacks.'

I am thinking of being an activist. Should I get all the jewelry before or after I start getting the money?

He's got my vote in the primaries at least.
