Jill Stein is Managing Cornel West's POTUS Bid (NOT The Onion) [View all]
You cannot make this shit up.https://archive.ph/3HEhZ
Cornel West, the Ivy League academic and progressive activist mounting a third-party campaign for president, has chosen former Green Party candidate Jill Stein to help him challenge to President Joe Biden from the left.
Stein said Wednesday that she’s serving as the “interim coordinator” for the West campaign, a catch-all role that encompasses fundraising, communications and campaign management until West can build a more traditional campaign.
“I’m just thrilled and delighted to have such an eloquent and accomplished voice as Cornel West advancing our agenda,” she said. “His vision is really made for this moment. There are so many people who are hurting and are locked out and feel that they’ve been left out of our political system.”
