Cornell West is a smart man. He knows that if he makes it to the ballot box in November (which isn't guaranteed), any vote he gets would be a vote he potentially took away from Biden, and will help Trump. Not only does he know it, but even Fox News knows it because one of their hosts said it. Cornell obviously wouldn't say this out loud because it's not good optics to do so.

Cornell West was one of the loudest Progressive votes against Trump during his time as President. So why would he run for President when he stands 0.0000000% chance to win, won't get any real mainstream media attention to speak on his objectives, and could actually end up helping Trump? Which is something he obviously wouldn't want to do unless he has something to gain from it. Like, paying off $500,000 in taxes. Because he's not going to get any additional fame or notoriety from this stunt, nor will he effect Democratic policy in any way, shape or form.

You see, you guys do this all the time in TLR. When a Democratic Governor or President does something good, you always question the motive and suggest that they were only doing it to pander. Not because it was simply a good policy objective to accomplish or it was the right thing to do.

But now, one of your own is questioned, and it appears to hurt you.

He's not running for President for some militant cause. :mjlol:

You any Black male can add to it with more ideas and points, friend.

The only thing I would add and he may have mede mention of it as I haven't read it in depth admittedly. Is free self-defense and gun classes (lofty I know) and low/no interest repayment of federal loans which may also be there in different wording but he set an excellent baseline.

SWP, with his vast knowledge of our 2A rights, could help with that salient point, friend.

There was serious talk at the time of Republicans actually doing the right thing at the time because they were legit pissed off after January 6th. Then of course they changed paths. Even if that wasn't the case, it doesn't matter because he needed to be Impeached for that.

Owing 500,000 in taxes that's been reported by every major news outlet is a hit piece and a no vote for Cornel means you're helping Trump. Yeah, you're shyt posting at this point. You're not a serious person.

Ah yes, the magic word, reparations.

Please explain how do you get a majority of US House of Representatives, normally 218 out of 435, and 60 US Senators out of 100 to vote in favor of reparations? Don't care, I'd rather vote for the guy who tries and fails in good faith, than the others who don't try at all. Not the only tangible on his platform, versus the ZERO from the Dems and Reps.

Also, in this timeline and every alternate timeline in the multi-verse, Cornel West chances of becoming President are 0.0000000000000000% out of 100. So let's vote for him anyway because it makes us feel good. Again, it's about policy and messaging. Voting about "feeling good" is why Black people vote Democrat into poverty despite all logic saying they're using us.

They are losing the black vote because of bytch ass uninformed nikkas run they fukkin mouth talking about "Trump gave us money" or "Trump got a bunch of black people out of jail" (8 famous people, compared to the 1,900 90's drug convictions Obama pardoned), or "Trump is against billionaires" or "Trump is anti establishment" ect.

Hood nikkas are by far the most uninformed people on politics in this country. I've started to stop talking about the shyt because I almost killed the last nikka to run his uninformed mouth around me. fukk em. Let them dumb nikkas run to me and my team when Trump leads a race war in the country. I'm killing shyt. Flat out.
Hood nikkas are not the most uniformed people on politics in this country.

Trailer park Bob and nem are the most uninformed muddafuggas on politics in this country. Those fools vote their hatreds and fears, rather their interests. They were against Obamacare, but for Medicaid expansion. Then they vote for dumb ass candidates that push tax cuts for the extremely rich that broke White people don't benefit from; but then will turn right around and vote against shyt they they actually benefit from like SNAP, student debt forgiveness, infrastructure improvement and prison reform, etc. Just fugging dumb. Hood nikkas on the other hand usually vote for shyt that benefits them, but they listen to fool ass celebriti too much.

We do and will continue to do so.

I never in real life seen a disciplined black man shun or speak ill of the Minister,only fat sloppy nikkaz,emotional broad raised dudes and CaCs.
As a Chicago nikka I have no respect for the NOI. They only come thru for photo ops, and they damn headquarters is here

. Idk if any of the other Chicago brehs on here feel the same @beaniemac @Tenchi Ryu @The God Poster

Father Pfleger, Jesse Jackson on the other hand I’ve seen do heavy work in the community

I've already listened to several of his interviews and his reasoning his bullshyt. He won't affect policy in the future, he won't create any change, he won't be "giving a voice to the voiceless", he won't have any impact whatsoever on the future political landscape. Which is why his entire campaign is meaningless. Nobody gives a fukk about Cornell West except some people online. And online isn't a reflection of the actual political voter electorate.

But hey, the money he steals from white progressives and dumb militants will go toward paying his taxes and expenses, so in that case he's reaping the rewards of being their voice.

Vote for the guy who would never get the opportunity to try and fail in good faith because he will never be President nor will he have any impact on the future political landscape going forward. But hey, he mentioned supporting reparations and that makes you feel good.

Voting on vibes is not indictive of a serious voter.
