Bestselling author and self-help guru Marianne Williamson has thrown her hat into the ring for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination, setting herself up for a potential showdown with incumbent President Joe Biden.
Speaking at her campaign kickoff event in Washington, D.C., Williamson called for a vision of justice and love that would overcome the forces of hatred and injustice.
Williamson’s candidacy has sparked controversy within the Democratic Party, with some dismissing her as a joke and a stunt to sell her books. Others, however, have praised her announcement, calling it compelling and heartfelt.
As the first Democrat with a national following to challenge Biden, Williamson faces an uphill battle to secure the nomination. However, she remains committed to her message of love and justice, and is determined to make a difference in a country plagued by division and despair.
