Best-selling author Marianne Williamson officially ended her long-shot run for the White House Friday; narrowing the Democratic Primary field just weeks before the Iowa Caucus.
“I stayed in the race to take advantage of every possible opportunity to share our message,” Ms. Williamson said in a message to supporters. “With caucuses and primaries now about to begin, however, we will not be able to garner enough votes in the election to elevate our conversation any more than it is now.”

“Mr. President, if you’re listening, I want you to hear me, please: You have harnessed fear for political purposes, and only love can cast that out,” she told moderators from the debate stage in June. “I’m going to harness love for political purposes. I will meet you on that field, and sir, love will win.”

'WE CAN ATONE': Marianne Williamson Vows to Remove Jackson Portrait from Oval Office as ‘Atonement’ for Past
Author and Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson vowed to remove the portrait of Andrew Jackson from the Oval Office should she win the White House Monday; saying the move would help “atone” for the United States’ treatment of Native Americans.
“We can atone. We can make amends,” Williamson said. “And if and when I’m president of the United States, we will. We will begin by taking that picture of Andrew Jackson off the wall of the Oval Office.”
Under Jackson’s leadership the United States enacted the Indian Removal Act; resulting in widespread violence between varying Native American tribes and US troops.
“The presidential hopeful stated that children must forever be educated about how the U.S. treated Native Americans and suggested a year-long reconciliation program between the two peoples,” reports Fox News.
“It is time for us to do some very important, deep, and powerful repair work,” she concluded.
Williamson left millions of television viewers scratching their heads during last month’s Democrat debate; bizarrely suggesting President Trump has awakened a “dark psychic force” during the Democratic debate.
“This is part of the dark underbelly of American society, the racism, the bigotry, and the entire conversation that we’re having here tonight. If you think any of this wonkiness is going to deal with this dark psychic force of the collectivized hatred that this president is bringing up in this country, then I’m afraid that the Democrats are going to see some very dark days,” said Williamson.

BIZARRE WARNING: Democrat Marianne Williamson Says Trump Awakening ‘Dark Psychic Force’ in USA
Author Marianne Williamson left millions of television viewers scratching their heads Tuesday night; bizarrely suggesting President Trump has awakened a “dark psychic force” during the Democratic debate.
“This is part of the dark underbelly of American society, the racism, the bigotry, and the entire conversation that we’re having here tonight. If you think any of this wonkiness is going to deal with this dark psychic force of the collectivized hatred that this president is bringing up in this country, then I’m afraid that the Democrats are going to see some very dark days,” said Williamson.
Progressive and moderate Democrats squared-off Tuesday night on the first round of CNN’s presidential debates; with centrist lawmakers calling far-left policies “fairytale economics.”
“The ideological divide between Democratic presidential hopefuls came into focus Tuesday as leading progressive candidates Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren defended their liberal policies on healthcare and immigration against surprisingly energetic attacks from moderate rivals,” reports Yahoo News.
“The fault lines emerged immediately in the second debate of the 2020 Democratic primary race, with lesser-known candidates taking sharp digs and warning that forcing radical change could ensure President Donald Trump’s re-election,” adds the website.
Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders repeatedly called for massive, “structural” change to the US economy and political system on issues including Wall Street, healthcare, taxation, immigration, and more.
Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden will share the stage Thursday with Senator Kamala Harris; clearing the path for a potential rematch from weeks ago.
