The incumbent US President is likely to throw his hat back in the ring for the upcoming election. Now the first Democrat to announce her internal party candidacy against Biden: Marianne Williamson, a 70-year-old writer who publishes self-help books.
US President Joe Biden has his first internal party competitor if he runs for the White House again. 70-year-old author Marianne Williamson officially announced her candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination.
“As of today, I am a candidate for President of the United States,” she said at an event in Washington, DC. “The people in power don’t have any solutions ready or don’t really support the solutions,” she said in the speech.
The people with solutions, on the other hand, would have no power. This must be changed. Your chances are considered almost hopeless. The best-selling author of self-help books wanted to be in the White House for the Democrats as early as 2020. But she dropped out of the race before the party’s primaries because of poor poll numbers.
There has been speculation in recent weeks that Williamson may want to run again for the Democratic nomination. In an interview last week, the best-selling author confirmed her intention to run. In the past she had also applied for another political office as an independent.
US President Biden has not yet officially announced that he intends to run again in the 2024 presidential election. However, the 80-year-old Democrat has stated his general intention in the past. He is expected to throw his hat in the ring soon. Then he should not have any significant competition within his party.
Biden is currently burdened with an affair involving secret documents from his time as Vice President, which were most recently found in his private rooms. The Justice Department has assigned a special prosecutor to this. Ex-President Donald Trump and former US Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, have so far applied for the presidential candidacy for the Republicans.
