Cornel West: Running for President, Ending Ukraine War & Taking on “Corporate Duopoly” of Dems & GOP 

Totally agree

He is on the oversight board of directors for Ron DeSantis' Classical Learning Test--you know, what's replacing all that CRT and gay curriculum nonsense DeSantis has so heroically saved the children of Florida from learning about. He even wrote a column praising it in the WSJ in June, I believe. Poles are shifting. Brace yourself.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....I can't stop laughing ha ha ha ha ha ha. Completely delusional thinking.

I wonder what Dr. West thinks about the new President of Argentina?

Cornel West and Maxine Waters for the DNC presidential candidates 2024!

He's a whining dictator. Leave this country if you think it's so bad. Every country has corruption. Quit focusing on it and whining about it. Talk about something positive. I'm so sick of all this negativity. No one needs that.

@@AllThingsSoul The best way to solve a problem is to ignore it

American empire, NATO promised😂 Straight out of Ruzzian state TV

Why did he choose to serve on Ron DeSantis' Classic Learning Test board? Why does he shill for a man who has emptied school libraries and made any mention of non-hetero reality illegal? I want Amy to cover this. It's despicable.

west speak of this reparations? where are the reparations for all the victims of the black violent male criminal for the past 100+yrs. mr. west? FBI (2019) 16.410 homicides in the US 9,205 committed by african americans. 11% of the population conducting 60% of the homicides. we lost 2,996 persons on 9/11. the amount of person murder in 2019 by blacks WAS 3 times the number killed on 9/11/ and that statistic in just for 2019. (not 2020+ forward). west does not speak of that. no, left out of the "always" conversation. west is no better than "a" klansman in "reverse". preaching his hatred, discrimination and bigotry of another ethnic and race... and always finding "issues and problems" with our developed nation that he (mr. west) sits in happy, wealthy and fat. money, car, tenured position, ect. oh, how nice. but there is "always" something wrong with our nation. If not, clowns like this do not make their ratings and money. who designed and built the skyscrapers. medical devices, engineering, gone to the moon, advanced medicine and equipment. yes, mr. west it was all sitting on the US shores already built and completed by the indians and slaves... when "the" white guy showed up in like 1745. sure, mr. west. a clown, west is. have him ramble on another TV show of his bigoted, slanted view on a nation that gave him so much opportunity and ability, so he used that to "complain" about it.

What exactly has he done that is brilliant? He can't answer his own question. What does it mean to be a featherless, toothless creature born between urine and feces? Answer that question. Answer it!

When are you having RFK Jr on? Would love to see he and Cornell West debate and INFORM the world of some major truths. They would make Trump's truth telling look like small fries with the Truth Bombs they have! Perhaps they will end up on the Independent ticket TOGETHER!

Wow, he doesn’t know the first thing about Ukraine. What is he going to do when Putin didn’t want to stop his invasion and not withdraw?

Don't waste ur vote and I don't mean anything disrespectful, but and the end when it's only two people from each side vote for the one that's going to win.

@@uwishuknewnunya7845 the only ones who waste their votes are those who vote R and D. Just because that's the only 2 that always ends up on the ballot is a poor excuse to settle and vote either or. It's no wonder so many Americans don't vote and it's no wonder why nothing ever changes. And really that's sort of the whole point of voting a third party is to move to democracy along especially if that third party more closely aligns with ones values. And let's be honest a good chunk of this country can no longer afford to have the status quo. R and D can't just fear monger for votes they need to earn them and they haven't. So I'll take my stand but thanks.

Your mind body and soul needs to pray for a spirit of discernment. This man is a dictator. He has zero political experience. It's shocking that you don't see that.

Mines too!

Cornel West and Maxine Waters for the DNC presidential candidates!

No thanks what

I have always enjoyed Dr West's point of view but for him to get involved in the elections it reminds me of how we got Drump since Bernie got involved and the whole Bernie or Bust. Ok I hope you all enjoyed Dumps presidency . Meatball and Dump send their love if you're in a battle states 💙🇺🇸

He could get a ton of support from conservatives if he wasn't black. That's a dealbreaker right from the start, that and anyone who wants to help the suffering is a communist. It's all about _the children_ , you see

Hell no !

I think people need to raise money so he can afford to get a lobotomy and stop being a public nuisance!

He won't get it throw the corporate media they don't want people like to speak out

@@dustinnukem5458 I posted an article by the daily beast in my previous comment. Daily beast is considered a leftist paper

Hope? He's a dictator. A wolf in sheep's clothing. You're blind if you don't see that.

Well, he's got no room to talk about anyone's physical appearance. What are you talking about. People thought DT was respectful, too, even though he's a convicted rapist.

I'm surprised Ms carrying water for power didn't get that honor.

He did an interview with Kim Iversen already.

First interview? He’s been interviewing with people all week. Deserved?

No.

Russell Brand had the first interview

This "philosopher" - whose contribution to philosophy over half a century is precisely zero - has always been a clown, but I didn't fully realise what an utter imbecile he was until he opened his mouth about Ukraine.

Sadly, unless the People's Party gets ballot access in Alabama, he won't even be on the ballot. Does Alabama allow write-in votes?

@@bobtrask2217 People are just clueless. All jumping on the bandwagon "I'm gonna vote" for someone that's not even gonna be on their states ballot.

@C Scotet How do you know? No one knows what is going to happen, really. But the Supreme Court ruled today correctly. It has a big effect on the state of Alabama. I will not support Democrats or Republicans or Libertarians . No more being lied to.

He's all talk and no substance.

His party is a bunch of right wing bigots. Plus, they've stolen money. They've never run one campaign for any office until now. You cannot change the world from the top down. You have to build from the bottom, something the "People's" Party refuses to do. Because they're right wing grifters that run the party.

@@dianahill5116 Like MTG and too many others, you are showing off your ignorance...

Y’all, he just praised Ron DeSantis. After all his talk of protecting the LGBTQ community.

​@@dianahill5116 he is great but to win the general election . I bet not many low informed Democrats even know of Dr. West

“Brother” SANDERS??? He’s a loyal Binden poodle.

It's interesting that the leader of the People's Party, Nick Brana, once worked for Bernie Sanders as one of his campaign staffers, yet Bernie turned him down when invited to support Nick's new party which named Bernie as its figurehead.

​@@bobtrask2217unfortunately Sanders is simply controlled opposition. Not sure if its just DNC that owns him or also CIA.

@@platosbeard4449 Because Bernie thinks strategically. He knows we can't have big sweeping changes in a democracy unless D's hold the House and the Senate (the latter by at least 60 votes) and the Presidency. Even then, he knows not all Democrats agree on everything. Why is this important? Because a POTUS is NOT supposed to be an autocrat dictating law. In a democracy, wait for it, people (Congress and the POTUS) have to actually work with each other and compromise IF they want to enact any new changes via legislation that gets signed into law by the POTUS. Bernie knows that without Biden, all the legislation that has passed wouldnt have passed. Certainly not by him (he's too emotional and has hot temper). Certainly not by Marianne. Not by West or by conspiracy theorist, RFK Jr.

Reading these comments is embarrassing and makes me see why the Democrats have been getting their/out asses kicked because we have so many idiots among us.

It’s just the propaganda that is the problem and that is coming strait out of those universities , liberals and democrats are going to own this one.

I AM just tired of the "party pooppers"...!! red +blue = purple, just say so...!! ijs

Better get ballot access for your state. Like NOW. Find out how many signatures and when you need to get to vote for a new way. Or wish in one hand and wipe the bum with the other.

💯 ❤❤❤

He is so right wing sharing views very similar to Republican gov. of Florida on education. Why did he announce on Russell Brand? Never mind I know.

A "solid" third party option, but they're not registered for federal elections in any state except Florida?

Yes it does

Cornell West is another sellout, puppet of the Jewish oligarchy. No thanks.

We'd better have a plan to get him on ballots!

Cornel West and Hank Johnson for DNC presidential candidates 2024. Joe can't mentally make it to January 2029 and Kamala is just too silly!!!!!

Marianne may have integrity, but she is a neophyte when it comes to understanding power politics and unlike, Cornell, would end up having the uniparty hegemonic foreign policy position.

Neither of them will be invited to debate.

@@bobtrask2217 Alas.

Listen to RFK Jr.........He is full of integrity....against Military Industrial Complex, corruption of government/corporations, for the working class etc....Please hear him out !

@@BCSTS This household was all set to vote for him. We listened to him. When asked about M4All his response was undoable, so what makes him think he can reform the pharmaceutical industry since both are so closely linked?

Lmao

AMEN! Ditto!

I don't want no leader who can't focus on the positives. He's a dictator and sounds just like DT. NOPE!

Unfortunately, he’s already shown very bad judgment. Never mind he believes in an imaginary sky daddy.

@J M Yeah, he recently praised Ron DeSantis, wtf wtf. I have always admired Dr. West and have several of his books. I don’t want to purity test or anything, but sheesh. That is really not ok to normalize someone as horrendous as DeSantis, much less praise him. I don’t want to make perfect the enemy of the good, but ugh. DeSantis’ whole thing is kicking down at the vulnerable

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Except he's aligned himself with Ron DeSantis' Orweillian book and curriculum purge in Florida's education system. He serves on a DeDantis board overseeing the Classics Learning Test. Look for his WSJ column from June praising it. Is your brain exploding yet?

What is so good about him? You know nothing about him. He has zero political experience. This world is at war. Ya better hire someone with experience. Biden was VP for 8 years. Nobody can match his experience. Biden in 2024!

Trump likes this guy. That speaks well of him.

Yes, he is very impressive. I hope he isn't TOO enlightened for American voters.

@@BadlndsBob I love Cornel West, but we shouldn’t be voting for third parties. This is how the republicans will win

@@BadlndsBob This is why we need ranked choice voting 😭

@@Mark_June So you want ‘BIDEN’ back for a 2nd term!!!??? How do you think that will work out???

​@@enlightenedchild8373 ranked voting simply means proportional representation. 20 for any party equals 20% reps. 80% votes equals 80 % reps. Its proportional. Its fair.

It is very happy news!

​@Don Jr's Coke Dealer he was supporting Bernie Sanders, where were you?

@@chadalpha7983 And who is Bernie Sanders supporting?

@Don Jr's Coke Dealer You are not wrong. But this is what we have now. And as sad as it is it's as much hope as I have had. And I think it still a good moment.

Unfortunately, our political system is more like sports teams and our citizens are like fanatics at a European football (soccer in the US) match. They support their "team" vote by color or mascot and don't do any research on the candidates. Americans are inherently lazy and voting third party would mean they can't just go down the battle and choose the color they like.

Unless you live in Florida, Missouri, or Virginia, you won't get to vote for him because he won't be on the ballot.

then you're happy to let the GOP genocide LGBTQ people, strip minorities of their rights and end democracy.

Write in. To hell with the establishment elites

I could not agree more. I don't know when the value of human life and humanity became second to money and control, but I would love to believe that there is a way to reverse this grotesque ideology.

I've been sold that same fear for 32 years now. I'm not scared anymore. 3rd party or bust.

He has my vote for sure, but if I didn't live in Jersey or a safe blue state I'd vote Biden

​@@NOBLENAGA007It's always been that way

You know nothing about this man. He has zero experience in politics yet you are willing to put all your trust in him. Blind trust. Pretty sad.

He helped lead the insurrection in Ferguson Missouri 2015 and was arrested and told all the rioters and looters how proud he was with a bullhorn.

@@user-gw7bs9up3l I’m sorry, I don’t understand. Is that a fun fact or are you saying that like it’s a bad thing?

@RiMoniqueL oh. It's OK if somebody else incites a insurrection. Hes got your vote huh. Have fun burning and looting when he doesn't get elected.

Cornell West is another sellout, puppet of the Jewish oligarchy. No thanks.

If you can't see anything positive about this country, leave. Go to China or Russia. I'm sick of all the whiners talking about the U.S. as if any country is better. No country is perfect. Either look for the positives here or please leave.

There is no such thing...the system is already set...way before you were born...

boo hoo get a poodle

Republican Party is neo-fashist?!? This guy had no chance. And lesbians are not my sisters 🤢🤮

🐮Similac 🐮

In a two party system you can't win outside the system. Do you want to take a stand only to end up with a fascist republican government. Vote for progressives when you can, but hold your nose and vote Democrat if it prevents republicans from being elected.

@@EllenSykes2028 no

@@mt_gox Why no? He’s better than Biden.

Most likely he'll be alright. I'm not opposed to what he's doing, but it will probably help Drunkf win in 2024 unless the DNC can bring themselves to push out Biden.

Did I hear him refer to Republicans as fascists? Fascists come from the left!! They are Marxists, not conservatives. I hate to say this but Americans need to open their eyes. The mighty USA has never done anything to help another nation. It has been the biggest terrorist ever to have existed on this world. has assassinated more people than all the other agencies combined. You assassinate Gadafi, not because he was evil but he was trying to unite Africa. Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction. Ukraine is not about protection Ukraine and Taiwan will go down the same path if they get the US to protect them. Americans are good people but you have been brainwashed into American idiots!!

What if we organized a huge debate. What if Mr. West could have a platform that everyone could have a chance to hear his message ?

He's a socialist like Bernie. More money for them and less money for you.

We don't need a whining complainer as President. We need someone with a positive outlook who understand that no country is perfect. If you don't think that the U.S. is better than most countries, please leave. Go to China or Russia.

I really love his WSJ article praising DeSatan.......Not!

No. Cornel-West is a charlatan at this point.

Cornell has always been an eloquent speaker but his prose is to literary for political dialogue. He will never become president because his oratory excellence can’t be translated into political reality.

How many states does he have support from? How come he doesn't mention any issues that black Americans are experiencing? Black people don't fall for this..

I did too. West is 100% correct.

glad y'all got on the good foot

Beautifully expressed. Each person in the United States must encourage and convince their family and friends to vote for this brilliant, authentic, wise and loving man. It is the responsibility for those of us on the other side of the Atlantic like me for instance to communicate with people through these means and tell them to "wake up". Remember the alternatives to the Honorable Dr. West are; Bide, DeSantis and Trump. If G..d's kingdom is to be realised then there is no substitute for the distinguished man of G..d who is Professor Cornel West. Take good care and bless you.

Yeah, he definitely has a screw loose. He's a dictator. Why are you so easily fooled?

Sounds good spouting all manner of US propaganda such as the “Russian empire” or the “Chinese empire” “brutalizing” the Uyghurs. Only a dunce would believe those US lies or tow that line. But, perhaps he’s just saying those things he knows the right wing public in the US will be comfortable with (knowing that the substantial majority of Americans are on the right wing of the political spectrum).

What debates? He won't be in any debates. The People's Party is a joke, and has NO ballot access in 47 states. Dr. West will be relegated to interviews and platform statements, but he will not be invited to participate in debates.

Yes for the woke serfs of late capitalism ... All words zero change ... Fxxk this mainstream media mud

MSM are not going to let this wonderful man anywhere near a studio or even a microphone, hope I'm 100% wrong

The mainstream media will go to great lengths to shut him up.

Besides Bernie.

He has no backing in the Congress. That's what I'm saying everyone goes for the Presidential seat and yes it's a strong one... but the real power is in law making and the power of the purse. No Representation there, and all you are doing is pissing in the wind. = third party candidates. Win at the congressional level, build a power base, then run a candidate for President.
