Cornell West's Presidential Run is Stupid, Short sighted, and will lead to fascists taking over..

[Prince.Skeletor]

He has spent the last few decades railing against vaccines, lobbying Global South countries to ignore vaccine mandates, and has a direct hand in the deaths of thousands of children throughout the Global South dying from preventable disease.

Why do you post when you don't seem to ever have a grasp of what you're talking about. The only two things RFJ Jr. is famous for are: 1.) being a Kennedy and, 2.) being an anti-vaxx psychopath.

Cornel is a great political commentator, he has not shown that he'd be a good politician - though that goes for most politicians

Again, i've seen RFK talk about different issues, doesn't mean I don't know what i'm talking about because i'm not aware of your narrative.
And as far as him being knowing for vaccines maybe he's known to you about this but not everyone.

This thread is literally about Cornel West. Who is currently the peoples party nominee.

Bro you late
Cornel left the People's party, he's now with the green party

Yet another reason he's an unserious candidate - he formally announced 6/5 he was running under People's Party and then within the last 4-5 days switched to Green.

i dont support cornel but either you believe in democracy or you dont. do better and you wont have to worry about these things. these threads are either a hit dog hollering, or a complete disrespect for democracy. i dont know which one is worse.

Did the People's Party have a primary?

i dont know, i dont support them or cornel.

I highly doubt he will do well enough to make any significant change. The best thing he can do is maybe get into a debate (unlikely) and draw attention to a particular subject that Biden will have to address (more likely, but far from guaranteed).

he used to be known as a serious left voice until the autism vaccine thing that started over a decade ago. from that point on, he has been increasingly viewed as a contrarian on controversial issues.

Meh who cares man, don't get lost in the sauce.

Would I rather have someone who wants to end the wars but has a concern about autism being related to vaccines or someone who doesn't think autism has any relation to vaccines but is a puppet of the military industrial complex?
I'd pick RFK in a heartbeat.

People are allowing establishment media decide for you what is important.

i agree that establishment media is attempting to decide for us, and contrarians have value, even if they are imperfect.

i definitely would evaluate him holistically and not just based solely on his antivaxx status. im curious to hear him speak on both foreign and domestic policy. i am somewhat cautious of people like him, however, because the skepticism can sometimes become skepticism for skepticism's sake and you end up like jimmy dore - an unprincipled person lurching from position to position based on what personally works for you and not on ideology and rigour.

he's not bothering anybody. leave him be. oh and the fascists already won, you just don't know it yet.

"These Republicans have become fascists! And I look forward to reaching across the aisle and working with them."

What is Dr. West's platform exactly?

Well that’s what a campaign is for, no?

 

[mastermind]

I’d take 3rd party presidential bids seriously if they did anything in between presidential elections.

They don’t spend anytime doing grassroots stuff or trying to win local and state elections. Then they just show up every 4 year and throw out a nominee. Let’s pretend they win the presidential election. The president isn’t a king. What’s the president gonna do when he has no ally’s in congress? Or governors to help push the agenda?

To further illustrate this. The People’s Party formed in 2020. They only have presidential ballot access in 2 states. If they couldn’t even do the one thing that even allows them to have a chance of getting elected in the first place; I’m not exactly in a rush to hand the keys over to them. shyt, Cornel West only went after the green nomination when he realized the peoples party only had access in 2 states.

This as well.

I'm not aware of him being a conspiracy theorist or rubbing such shoulders but i'm guessing he must have had an interview on fox when Tucker was there or something. Listen I can't speak for him but my guess is if no one on the left, MSNBC or CNN and the likes, invites you over to their show then if you are running for president you'll gonna have to go somewhere.
If CNN and MSNBC don't invite him over then does he go nowhere? I mean is he running or not.

im sorry but you have no idea what youre talking about.

RFK Jr is absolutely insane and a plant to split the dem vote.

I understand and appreciate your passion but please do better research before you throw your name behind someone, lest you look foolish

No no I am not throwing my name behind him.
He was asked his position on Israel and Palestine and his answer was typical democrat establishment pro-israel.
He also said Israel never hurt any palestinian kids.

So not a fan of his, but this is irrelevant.
I'm talking about 3rd party as a whole, not about any individual.
