Marianne Williamson re-enters elections campaign due to Biden's incompetence

Tehran, IRNA – Self-help author Marianne Williamson said she is “unsuspending” her long-shot presidential campaign a day after winning 3% of the vote in the Michigan Democratic primary due to US President Joe Biden's incompetence.

Referring to Donald Trump as “a Fascist standing at the door”, Williamson said, “Everybody is upset about it. We should be upset about it.” She also said that the “juggernaut” will not be defeated by Biden’s “Let's finish the job.”

She criticized Biden administration, saying that American people are working two or three jobs just to survive.

She also said that the American economy is really doing well just for 20% of the American society and the rest of the American society are in “economic despair”. She also added that “39% people of American people report that they are regularly skipping meals in order to pay their rent.”

Marianne Deborah Williamson (born July 8, 1952) is an American author, speaker, and politician. She began her professional career as spiritual leader of the Church of Today, a Unity Church in Warren, Michigan.

Williamson has written several self-help books, including A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles in 1992, which became a New York Times Best Seller.

She was launched into prominence by Oprah Winfrey, being a frequent guest on her daytime talk show and becoming known as her "spiritual advisor".

Williamson ran unsuccessfully as an independent for California's 33rd congressional district in the United States House of Representatives in 2014, finishing fourth with 13.2% of the vote.

She ran for the Democratic nomination for president in 2020, eventually dropping out and endorsing Bernie Sanders.

She ran in the 2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries, challenging incumbent President Joe Biden.

Williamson's presidential platform called for an end to the war on drugs, a federal minimum wage increase, reparations for racial injustice, addressing climate change, and creating a U.S. Department of Peace.

On February 7, 2024, she announced she had suspended her campaign after receiving 2.9% of the vote in the Nevada Democratic primary.
