Marianne Williamson Announces Her Run For President in 2024

Democrat Marianne Williamson has announcer her candidacy for President in 2024.

Williamson, who also ran in 2020, has stated that the platform she is running on includes universal health care, child care, paid family or sick leave, tuition-free education, a guaranteed wage and a “21st Century Economic Bill of Rights.”

In her announcement, she mentioned Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address and how he recognized that the government works for the people. Williamson added that our current government only works for the corporations, is a “sociopathic economic system,” a “system of legalized bribery,” and causes Americans to struggle with anxiety, despair and depression.

Williamson discussed how “brave” the founders were in pushing back against tyranny – and how important it is to put that in perspective when thinking about where American society is today. In her opinion, every generation has fought back against injustice – the civil rights movement, women’s suffrage movement and the labor movement – and according to her, it’s “our turn” to fight back now.

“Some people in this city, just don’t even seem to care. Some people in this city, with some very brave exceptions, don’t even have the spine or the moral courage to fix it. Ladies and gentlemen, let me in there, I will,” said Williamson.
