Marianne Williamson, an author, spiritual activist, and candidate for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 2020, announced her campaign for the 2024 United States presidential election on March 4, 2023.[1] As of March 6, 2023, Williamson is the only Democratic 'major candidate' to officially announce their candidacy, as president Joe Biden has not yet announced his re-election bid.[2][3] Several journalists have deemed her campaign a "longshot",[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] as she has only once been included in polling data, and her last campaign typically polled near 1%.[12]
Policies
Williamson told ABC News her policies included free healthcare, free college and free childcare.[13] She advocates for new ideas such as a Department of Peace[14], which would promote peace and diplomacy, as well as a Department of Children and Youth, which Williamson says are severely neglected (children) and calls the current treatment of children by the government "collective neglection".[14] She believes America need mass-mobilization in order to prevent a climate catastrophe, and criticizes current president Joe Biden for not doing enough to combat climate change.[14] She is often described as a progressive Democrat, as her policies are seem very close to those of Bernie Sanders[15], who she previously endorsed and has been praised by.[16][17] Williamson used to have universal-basic-income on her platform, however as of recently it has not been present.[18][19]
