U.S. Presidential 2024 Democratic Primary candidate Marianne Williamson

KGLP Station Manager Rachel Kaub speaks with Marianne Williamson, who is a candidate running for the Democratic nomination for President of The United States in 2024. She’s a successful entrepreneur, bestselling author, political activist, and globally influential spiritual thought leader. 
For over three decades, she has been a leader in spiritual and progressive circles. She is the author of 16 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers. 

Williamson founded Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that has delivered more than 16 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients since 1989. The group was created to help people suffering from the ravages of HIV/AIDS. 

She has also worked throughout her career on poverty, anti-hunger and racial reconciliation issues. In 2004, she co-founded The Peace Alliance to support the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace, and has hosted the Sister Giant Conferences that have educated and encouraged thousands of women throughout the country to engage in political activity. 

 

The pillars of Williamson’s Presidential campaign are the restoration of America’s middle class through an Economic Bill of Rights, including universal healthcare, tuition free college and tech school, and a guaranteed living wage; the establishment of a Department of Peace and the Department of Children and Youth; the declaration of a Climate Emergency to mass mobilize for the development of a green energy grid; and ending America’s Drug War. Williamson believes the transformation of American society requires that we address the root causes of our problems, and not only their symptoms. 

 

If elected, Williamson will be the first female, the first mother and the first grandmother to be President of the United States.

Statement from the Marianne Williamson 2024 Campaign

 

President Biden has clinched the Democratic nomination for the Presidency. 

Voters in New Mexico still have an opportunity to weigh in on his agenda, however. 

 

A vote for Marianne Williamson in the Presidential primary sends a message that certain issues need to be reflected in his campaign, not only because they matter to us, but because they are key to defeating Donald Trump in November.

The core of the Williamson agenda is fundamental economic reform; “a government of the people, by the people, and for the people” has become “a government of the corporations, by the corporations, and for the corporations” and we must change that. Short term profit maximization for huge corporate interests has become a false god in America, an economic governing principle that has replaced democracy itself as America’s new bottom line. It is the task of this generation to end that trend. The Democratic Party should display an unequivocal advocacy for the working people of the United States, and only a truly progressive agenda will achieve that.

With 39 per cent of Americans now reporting that they regularly skip meals to pay their rent, and millions literally selling their blood plasma to pay bills, a message that the economy is doing well is not the message that will inspire people to vote Democrat in 2024. We need an Economic Bill of Rights: improved Medicare for All, tuition free college and tech school, paid family leave, guaranteed sick pay, and a guaranteed living wage. We need a U.S. Department of Peace, a Department of Children and Youth to deal with the many and dangerous risks to our kids, and a mass mobilization for a just transition from a dirty to a clean economy. We also need a ceasefire in Gaza; the United States should stand for a robust commitment to the peace, safety and security of both Israelis and Palestinians.  

Our campaign in 2024 must motivates people to think that yes, if they vote for the Democrat it will materially improve their lives over the next four years. 

The American economy delivers true prosperity to only twenty per cent of our citizens. We desperately need a President who is willing to stand up to what FDR referred to as the “economic royalists” that have turned our government into a system of legalized bribery. We need to push back against the corporate overlords who now exercise a system of economic tyranny by which a few keep getting rich and the majority have a harder and harder time just getting by. 

The American people have been trained to expect too little. Now is the time to make clear that such things as universal health care, tuition free college, and a guaranteed living wage - all provided to the citizens of every other advanced democracy in the world - should be provided to every American citizen as well. The last fifty years have seen a fifty trillion-dollar transfer of wealth from the bottom 90 per cent of our people to the top one per cent, and the message of the Democratic Party should be, “That stops now.”

That is how we will beat Donald Trump, and it is also how we will heal the country. 
A vote for Marianne Williamson in the New Mexico primary is the way to make sure that President Biden will get the message.

With great respect,

Marianne Williamson for President 2024
