"I actually think her book A Politics of Love is excellent—it pushes the Bernie Sanders agenda, but makes an explicitly moral and emotional case for it, explaining why we shouldn’t scoff at words like love and compassion and instead should make them foundational to our politics." -@NathanJRobinson currentaffairs.org/2023/03/m…

Marianne Williamson Deserves To Be Taken Seriously ❧ Current Affairs

The dismissal of Williamson is unfair. She has a solid agenda and is an inspiring orator. We should keep an open mind about her candidacy, especially since Biden needs a serious challenger.

I will fight with the Candidate who will join me and declare a war on poverty, hunger and homelessness. 39 million Americans in poverty! 34 million food insecure! 9 million starving are children. Over 600,000 homeless! Living on the streets, in cars and under bridges.

If it isn't Williamson + Sanders + Labor + 80M low-wage earners + 80M with poor/no healthcare + 100M who don't vote cuz they have nobody to vote for, i.e. the strongest force in American politics, forget it. If they run with, not FROM, the Reagan Democrats, forget it.

Author correction: MW never said “you go girl” Quote: “My first call is to the prime minister of New Zealand, who said that her goal is to make New Zealand the place where it’s the best place in the world for a child to grow up. And I would tell her: ‘Girlfriend, you are so on.’”

This guy is smart. I think you need to listen to some of his suggestions. You have a big problem with public image right now. I can come into your mentions and defend the truth about your past, but if you want a political future you've got to make changes. Start with his ideas.

And for heaven's sake Marianne, stop attacking black voters. Stop telling South Carolina voters that they're not allowed to go first in the primary. Apologize for telling Kamala Harris's defenders to stand back and stand by. Act like you know your base. To get respect, give it.

This was still a fumble. The first call should have been to Angela Merkel. And the statement should have been "I believe in the Western Alliance and I'm going to strengthen it again." And never called a world leader girlfriend. Never.

The Bernie agenda of telling everyone to vote Biden and then refuse to hold him accountable?

So many people do not realize that many of them are one serious illness away from food insecurity, lack of housing etc... 62% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Can you survive a week out of work? A month out of work? Do you just go to work sick?
