    No. Cornel West has no experience in public office and the Presidency isn’t the place to learn on the job.

      how much experience did Eisenhower have in public office?

      your standard is arbitrary and irrational.

        Who says I would have supported Eisenhower for office?

        I would have voted for Adlai Stevenson in that election.

        Eisenhower led multiple armies totaling in the millions in the largest war in human history. Cornel West has a background in *checks notes philosophizing.

          Lincoln never held public office. lots of presidents make it their first political job.

          edit: whoops. still, my point stands: there is no reason to expect anyone to have experience being president in order to elect them.

            Abraham Lincoln served as member of the Illinois House of Representatives from 1 December 1834 until 4 December 1842, representing Sangamon County. He went on to serve in to United States House of Representatives for Illinois’ seventh district from 4 March 1847 to 3 March 1849. His time in between was spent practicing law. I know you’re just trying to be disingenuous, but please stop.
