“On Wednesday, we will joyfully open a new chapter in this ‘moment in a movement,’ by announcing a committed candidate for Vice President who stands in solidarity with poor, oppressed and forgotten people everywhere. Together we will call upon the collective courage of every individual to value their vote and choose to stand with us to utterly dismiss the division, greed, and violence of the corporate-owned duopoly. We invite all to abandon these tired false choices and stand on the ‘side’ of humanity itself.”
Every state requires independents to meet unique rules to be allowed alongside corporate duopoly party candidates on state election ballots. As a result, Dr. West will either stand as the candidate of like minded independent parties, as the candidate of his newly-formed Justice for All Party, or as an independent candidate via required petition signatures—depending on each state's regulations.
In recent months, the campaign has galvanized a people-powered movement rooted in the universal principles of truth, justice, and love. With a vision far beyond this election cycle, the campaign seeks to radically raise the public view to put people and planet over profits, from the local to national level. Refusing corporate donations and super PAC funding, Dr. West relies on personal donations and his fast-growing groundswell of volunteers to fight for independent ballot access and campaign visibility across the nation.
Wednesday’s announcement of Dr. West’s vice presidential candidate will allow the campaign to further progress in additional key states which require a VP candidate to obtain ballot access and give voters an independent choice alongside the duopoly candidates.

WHO is funding this run & WHY?!
Literally throwing lots & lots of money away for literally no reason!!
@AmnestyAutumnDemocrat2mos2MO
Republicans
@Patriot-#1776Constitution2mos2MO
Sure ... blame Cornel West on Republicans.
@ChileLouieGreen2mos2MO
He, like RFK Jr., is running as an independent and needs to have a VP pick to get ballot access in more than two dozen states.
@MercifulOilDemocrat2mos2MO
I love how his candidacy is such a joke that his VP pick is considered a legal formality to get his name on the ballot rather than anything serious that actually matters politically

The suspense would be *KILLING* me, if not for the fact that no one's heard of him and he has zero chance of winning.
@ConservaWeaverLibertarian2mos2MO
It would be really funny if Cornel West picked Aaron Rodgers
@PitifulTreasurySocialist2mos2MO
That's fantastic. I really hope Cornel's VP pick is either Dr. Oz or Herschel Walker.
@V3toGorillaDemocrat2mos2MO
So Biden has to deal with West and Stein
@JudiciarySerenitySocialist2mos2MO
Really hoping he teams up with Cornell East of Ithaca, NY
