OMG! yay! FINALLY a person with humanity intact! ❤
-
Yikes!! This is BEYOND awesome man!😮.....the 360 degree shift from old ways, one complete break. I am speechless, this is ultra awesome 👏👏👏
-
This great man needs the backing of all the people, left and right, and the support everyone can give him, because he will be going against such powerful forces, domestic and foreign, that unfortunately will do everything THEY can to take him out! West for President
-
Brother Wolff and Sanders need to step up and help Dr West get this campaign off the ground. Godspeed, Cornel.
-
You have my vote, Dr. West! Bless you for running!
-
I want with all my mind body and soul for him to win. He's got my vote but I'll be crossing my fingers and toes. 🙏💯
-
Stop the infighting and listen to this great individual. He is a great uniter!
-
Let's go!!!! Cornel west! We need to band together and vote him in!
-
Thank you Amy for giving brother Dr West the time to express his views. Ive watched many interviews of this brilliant man and they do not give him the time or respect he deserves. Hopefully he can push through the resistance that a lot of marginalized people are STILL experiencing.
-
Cornel West I like he is not owed by Jews, he is vocal on condemning Israel
-
Democracy Now deserved this first interview with Dr. West as candidate for president.
-
He's got my vote.
-
This is the president i have been wanting my whole life. This man needs more media promotion
-
What makes Dr. West stand out from the rest of current world leaders is his honesty and morality. He does not succumb to polarized nor biased views, rather, Dr. West provides sound logic and a deep sense of empathy amidst the current geopolitical mess resulted from decades of unadulterated capitalism, unethical empire building, zero-sum take on foreign policy, and absence of humanity for those in power. His perspective is the most fair and unbiased with the goal of reaching our shared humanity across the globe. If Americans continue to be distracted by the failed two-party political system along its fabricated tribalism on non-core issues, things will certainly get worst with human rights violations, poverty, and global conflicts on the horizon. Voting for Dr. West is a matter of survival, failure to do so by the American public will be the end of us all.

Cornel West is a man of enlightened thought. I wish him well.
-
We need to protect this man at all costs. Please 🙏🏽
-
I can only imagine how much this brilliant, sensitive, fearless man would be able to accomplish if he got voted President of The Divided States of America. Just seeing this video has me excited. Democracy Now and Amy Goodman don't just tell us the truth, they are the truth. Thank you. There may just be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you, Democracy Now, for existing. And thank you, Professor West, for giving me a sense of hope for the first time in years. I am sending all of the universe's forces to protect you as you go forward, step by step.
