WASHINGTON – Scholar and progressive activist Cornel West announced Monday he is running for president next year as a third-party candidate, saying he wants to empower people who have been “pushed to the margins.” In a Twitter video, West said he will run as a member of The People's Party.
He criticized both major political parties and their standard bearers, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Both Biden and Trump are running again in 2024.

He’s left wing but I find him to be fascinating; he’s theoretical trying to be practical.
I wouldn’t vote for him, though. Although I seriously doubt that he would be more divisive and vitriolic than Biden.

I like to be multi-contextual, which is much more important than being multicultural. You have to be able to move from one context to the next. I want to learn something from my atheistic brothers and sisters, even though I'm a Christian. I want to learn something from my right-wing brothers and sisters, even though I'm a progressive. I want to learn something from the elderly, even though I'm middle-aged or tilting toward the elderly. I want to learn especially something from the youth. That's why I spend a lot of time in hip-hop studios.

We live in a society now where big business and big finance are so thoroughly have such a thorough stranglehold on big government. Even the Tea Party brothers and sisters, these are right-wing brothers and sisters feeling weak and impotent. Well, you know what? Sometimes I feel weak and impotent, but I try to be courageous. I try to be all-embracing enough that I dont scapegoat the most vulnerable. I look at the most powerful, not just in government but also corporate elites and financial oligarchs on Wall Street. The Tea Party people are wrestling with fear and impotence. We all are. They just have the wrong direction. They have the wrong energy. It's not moral enough. It's not concerned with the poor enough. It's not concerned with working people enough. But I resonate with their impotence.

Silencing dissent. A crucial question. I worry about it all the time. I just don't want the fear from the right to be used by the Obama administration to silence critics.

True but shouldn't be this way. The Rs and Ds roll out straight garbage. Not saying this cat, but there's gotta be better alternatives that have a shot.

Anytime you see "People's" or "Democratic" in the name of a party or country, you know that corruption and misery aren't far behind.
