Some Tweets from Marianne Williamson


  • Sometimes Love says “No”...
  • I agree. We need to hire an inspirer...marianne2020.com

    POLITICS: Presidential hopeful wants return to love, end to ‘moral rot’; ‘Oprah Winfrey Show’ star, top author Marianne Williamson campaigning in Carroll, Denison, Jefferson. Read more from in today's DTH or online here.
  • Our campaign is already influencing the conversation, but the goal is to do much more than that. Just changing the conversation of itself isn’t going to change America. We need to turn the new conversation into a political force. .
  • Please check out the Issues section of my campaign site. Philosophical inquiry does not indicate lack of policy proposals ...
  • A better version of the same old same old is still the same old same old.
  • Millions of American children live in chronic trauma, many with severe PTSD simply from living in our domestic war zones. This should be seen as a humanitarian crisis & America’s collective child neglect. As president, I’d have a Children’s Council or even Cabinet level position.
  • This is not the time for incremental changes or simply small random acts of kindness; it is time for huge strategized act of doing the right thing. On the issue of racial reconciliation…
  • The only way to defeat dog whistles Is to drown them out with angel voices. We need to rise up now not in anger but in song. A reborn world is possible on the other side of the mess we’re in, and if we devote ourselves to it fully then our part in creating it will be made clear.
  • We're in the midst of a breakdown - emotionally, politically, economically, environmentally. It's like a skidding car; you have to let go and let nature realign it. We all have to enter a deep place within ourselves now, in order to summon the forces that will repair the world.
  • Adding to already extreme wealth inequality, a massive wave of destruction (white collar & blue) will hit the job market over next 10-15 yrs due to automation. Every American should read Andrew Yang's "The War on Normal People."We must rethink our entire economic system, quickly.
  • They never talk about "a plan that would lead to" cutting taxes for the richest Americans, invading a country, etc. Yet it's always "a plan that will lead to" universal health care, "a plan that will lead to" reparations, "a plan that will lead to" anything like justice for all.
  • "Race-conscious policies" and "some kind of reparations" are like when fossil fuel companies talk about how much they care about the environment. Sometimes we just need to guffaw.
  • The status quo has a brilliant way of protecting and perpetuating itself; it simply co-opts disruptive language.
  • Here is the talk about reparations I gave at Harvard Divinity School this past week.Perhaps The Hill and the NYTimes would like to correct their reporting.
  • Medicare 4 All, free 4-yr tuition, $15 hr min, cancellation of most college loan debt shouldn’t be seen as extreme positions in the richest country in the world. We’ve been trained to expect too little, reduced to haggling for things that should be considered everyone’s right.
  • My campaign is radical? — No, democracy is radical. Love is radical. The American experiment is radical. Repudiating aristocracy is an ongoing struggle, but we’ve done it before and we will do it again. Of the people. By the people. For the people.
  • New Hampshire NPR:
  • This is from my talk last night at Harvard Divinity School on the role of repentance in national politics. See link in bio.
  • Here is the talk I gave last night at Harvard Divinity School on reparations for slavery and the role of repentance in national politics...
