I haven’t looked much into him yet but he checks a lot of good boxes.

Is he someone that leftists could back?

Is there any dirt that people have dug up that I’m not aware of?

If we wanted to champion him, could the leftist orgs unify and help him?

Do I sound like a dirty reformist(God pls no)???

Thoughts? Opinions?

    The lack of PR was part of what hurt Howie Hawkins’s campaign in 2020(well that and the fact that the whole damn thing was a complete shitshow anyway) so it would be good to see West try to get out there more. I will keep an eye on him because I agree that it’s pretty easy to compare him to any Dem candidate we end up with, but won’t hold my breath. The PR thing is what killed a local candidate where I am at because she didn’t want to get he name and face in front of millennial voters and just wanted to do radio commercials.
