I have two opponents for the Democratic nomination for president. The first one does what he can to help people, but only to the point where it doesn’t fundamentally challenge the underlying corporate forces that always make the return of people’s suffering inevitable. The other makes some scathing criticisms of the system, but then always ends up with the ultimate “I’m a free market capitalism guy,” “we need the discipline of the free market,“ and “I’m not going to raise anyone’s taxes,” all of which are code to his right wing billionaire donors that he will never shake up the establishment so they don’t need to worry. It’s not an accident that neither one of them want to debate me. #BidenDebateUs

You don't have any opponents because you are not a serious candidate.

"Free markets" destroyed clean air, unpolluted water and fertile, unspoiled land.

@marwilliamson This post of yours disappoints me. You presume to know RFK's intent. His refusal to take that destructive path is to his credit. Also, he has said he will change the tax code. Capitalism can be managed if it's flaws are addressed.

You should really listen to RFK JR if you think that’s his stance. Also stop manufacturing consent for a nato provoked proxy war with another nuclear power. Thanks.🙏 Also good luck on your book tour.

Incumbent doesn't need to debate.

I think the best candidate would be the one that finds a way to balance everyone's needs, changes need to be made for consumers not to suffer but corporations need the ability to profit. Pretty delicate dance to pull off but I think it's possible to find a middle ground

We love you @marwilliamson but you might want to start actually listening to what @RobertKennedyJr is saying. He is brilliant, mature, and ready to lead this country better than anyone. I don't know why you keep insulting him. Get to know him please!

RFK: "I'm glad Marianne is running" RFK: "I want an open debate" He has 40 YEARS FIGHTING CORRUPTION He's trying to fix the rot—while bringing people together through practical solutions While you were writing books—he's been suing and holding corporate corruption accountable

I'm voting for Cornel West, who understands that Ukraine is a war of Western aggression, amongst other things.
