Cornel West, a philosopher, academic, and political activist, announced his campaign on June 5, 2023, in the 2024 US presidential elections as a People's Party candidate via a video on Twitter where he called for "truth and justice" and pledged to use the presidency to accomplish that.[6]
On June 14, 2023, West announced he would also seek the Green Party's nomination in their primaries.[7][8] On October 5, West announced he would instead be seeking to run an Independent campaign and thus dropped out of the Green Party primaries, beginning the process for ballot access.[9]
On January 31, he created and ran with the "Justice for All Party".[10]
Aligning with his socialist positions,[11] West's campaign centers on support for Medicare for All, public housing, action on climate change, and drastically cutting the US military budget.[12]
West has averaged in the mid-single digits in most general election polls,[13] and is widely considered to be a long-shot candidate.[14][15] Several Democratic analysts say that he could draw votes away from Joe Biden in a general election,[16] leading to concerns of vote splitting.
