US Presidential candidate Cornel West on Israel Hamas war, greedy ruling class and Biden vs Trump

- US Presidential candidate Dr Cornel West is a philosopher and prominent advocate for social and racial justice. He’s taught at some of the top universities in the US including Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, but has one major plan if he becomes President: to “dismantle the American empire”.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
The 71-year-old activist, who campaigned for Biden in 2020, has recently been vocal against both the Democratic and Republican’s party’s stance on Gaza, which he calls “morally bankrupt”. Though he faces very long odds in winning the race, he says he wants to appeal to a group of disillusioned voters who have given up on the American two-party system.
In this episode of Ways to Change the World, Dr Cornel West tells Krishnan Guru-Murthy why he thinks US foreign policy on Israel is enabling destruction in Gaza, how both Biden and Trump are problematic for oppressed groups, and why it’s difficult to have hope to change the world without also being in despair at the suffering we see.

Cornell West speaks TRUTH!
Long live Cornel West!
A big salute to brother Cornell for his Peace loving Ideologies and uniting the world... America needs a president like him !!!
This gentleman has my vote. Lets get together and vote for the interest of humanity. Peace love and prosperity to all.❤❤❤
Damn its so refreshing when an actual human being with a functioning soul gets interviewed.
And a functioning brain ...
@@TheResidance That head is somewhere in a high orbit ... very far from the ground .... and no fuel to change its trajectory
@@gdiwolverinemale4th these stale jokes only work in ur circles
@@ronaldperez3859 Perhaps so, but his stale ideas don't work anywhere. Proven many, many times
@@gdiwolverinemale4thits trajectory is straight , true and desireable.
He sounds sane, but they call him crazy! We deserve a president like this! I’m over the establishment!
Spread the word! let’s vote for Dr Cornel
He is crazy. Just wants handouts.
So, you'd rather support the big banks and the big corps?
West is campaigning on workers rights, and you say "no thanks, I'm alright Jack" ?
Bro. You need that vacation time to unwind for sure
@@hareecionelson5875 “workers rights” aka “I demand it therefore it’s a right.” Shut up. Do your job.
@@Lurch685Its still more fair then "I do 1% of the Work, and earn 90% of the Money". For what do we got Democracy if not for more Equality?
I’m in my sixties and I’m voting for Professor West and I pray for him daily. ❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Tell all of your friends at church
@@NJ-dd3bk them church folk are all Biden supporters.
Gosh he’s a breath of fresh air that we need!
I want to be a part of an America that votes West president, especially over these two corrupt clowns.
💯 %!!!!!
Green Party is on ballots.
AKA: feasible
🤣🤣
czcams.com/video/Hp58_0MmmuM/video.htmlsi=Sg2tzlwIiKN21t8j Mr Trump put the Abraham Accords peace deal together.
That would be a disaster.
Respect this man's courage and world view
What courage
Who is your guy Tim?
I respect his courage as well. I wonder how much his life will be turned upside or what threats he'd receive if he did get close to power.
What you mean a bunch of emotive ideological mantra strung together? Unpack his word salad and it has no meaning.
What you mean as a devisive Jew-hating pseudo-academic? Oh yer a real genius.
On this issue alone I'm voting for Dr Cornell West!
"You never want to be surprised by evil or paralyzed by despair" Amen to that brother!!
He’s getting my vote.
Same here. I found out he was running when I saw the title of this video 2 min ago. And I’ve already made up my mind.
I really seriously deeply hope that Dr West has an above-excellent security guard. The powers that be do not like brilliant black men who threaten their power
He does not have a snowball's chance ..... and for very good reasons. His preferred political system has been tried so many times and ensured .... the lowest common denominator .... and everything else in line with it
@@gdiwolverinemale4thyeah? Exactly where and when? You are full of ... you know what.
Good...one less vote for Brandon 😂
That actually is indeed good since he's currently committing genocide in Gaza with Israel. And.. it's one less vote Trump as well since he would support Israel 100% in their genocide as is stated in a link on his official website...@@jonnieinbangkok
Cornell West is just wonderful to listen to. He is an amazing, intelligent, kind and lovely human being.
What a lovely man! Imagine a world where all politicians spoke like him!
We really need him at this time where the world is almost at the verge of a third WW unfortunately
Unfortunately they get bought look at Biden he got AIPAC no wonder he supporting Israel and said it wasn’t genocide. But with a president like cornel there may be hope.
God bless you all, for telling the truth 🙏
Americans deserve a leader with qualifications, principles and humanity of Prof.West. Please vote for Cornell West
Jill Stein is the one we need right now. Cornel West will be part of her administration.
@@debwhite9432 I agree; I respect them both
. . . I'm all for this guy's ideas, but why would you throw away your one important vote to support a man who has NO CHANCE to be elected? We need to vote against Donald Trump the dictator and elect the only REAL rival for the presidency, Joe Biden. America is facing a crisis in 2024. Don't let America down by denying Biden your vote.
We don't have it we need President to take a indepth Psychological test before taking the Oat of service Biden Dementia shown to be a push over to a Foreign leader taking all our tax money over seas Trump apparently Grandiose Acute Narcissist disorder cause some of this Israel leaders to feel empower to commit this genocide with impunity.foh
America needs a president that can beat Donald Trump . . . . . . . Now vote for Joe Biden so Trump DOESN't get elected. Save America from TRUMP!
More power to you Cornell West....!!! Yes brother...!!!
Let's all vote 🗳 for this smart man...
The voice of common sense!
Proud of Greatest justice fighter of our time/ Cornell West.
Vote Cornell West for peace, free US from AIPac ✊🏼
I thought bigotry is illegal today .

Yes ! Agreed
U are so naive. If he even could be instated as CIC (because of our uniparty election system we are where we are) they'd bump him off!
I'm not American but if I was, I'd vote for him. The USA needs this man.
As if Americans votes count or matter !
As if American elections are not pre planned selections
Professor West is a genius in ethics and humanity. An inspiring leader who is not given enough attention by the world. I'm happy at least this channel gave him this interview.
I'd love to live in a world who's nations leaders thought more like West and Corbyn.
If only...

I could listen to this man talk forever, no matter the topic. What a brilliant human being.
ikr, I always find myself thinking, oh the reporters got him now, he won't be able to answer that one, and then he pulls an L vs light Yagami 1000 IQ play and stomps with a brilliant answer... damn charismatic too
Don't let despair have the last word, ever.
I wish I were American so I could vote for this guy.
Love Cornell West! Thanks for revealing the truth about Israel and Palestine
One thing that i've always said before ever hearing this is "they are just as human, therefore have the same propensity to commit genocide as they do compassion. Because we are simply human. We are of tribal ancestry" which is similar to what this man has said. Amazing!
The Jews wants peace, the A .ra ..bs wants death and destruction,

Please vote him ❤

He has not capability even to lead his community
probably cause you're not that bright. He's a hack, they will all coalesce behind Biden by late summer and early fall

Yes 👍🏾 we see it so happy people are speaking 🆙 I will be voting for you. Good luck. I hope the world too.❤❤❤❤
Thank you channel 4 News for doing some real news. please keep it up. we need chance. please be part of it and not on the wrong side of history
A gentleman and a scholar. Keep fighting the good fight brother. The world is watching and change will come 🍀
A gentleman really
And a scholar don't forget.
Im from Poland and Cornel West already is my President. My human vote is yours Mr. West! America you have soch a great chance for a change, do not lose it.
Lucky the left wing in Poland is like 10% rest is center right and right wing ....
Lefties are braindead
that man will never see the whitehouse, i was excited about him at first but all of in the US* have turned our backs on him. hes a weak and lying coward. we're voting for trump
best comment
he want get the black vote because he isn't concerned about what's happening to black Americans.
I am 99.99% sure I am voting for him.
West is so articulate, he doesn't stutter and says what he means & means what he says. No bs, no script, no backhandedness..
Good to hear a US presidential candidate speaking some sense. Vote for this guy.
Always such a pleasure to hear brother Cornell speak. Much respect from the UK.
Vote him to power USA
The current ruling class is a disaster. What he suggests is a catastrophe.
He obviously it’s not gonna win. I spoke to him as a vote for Trump. Please don’t make that mistake.
Thanks Cornel, u r the good
As a Portuguese who can't claim to know anything about the US I still am confident enough to say you guys should vote on this guy!
Dear America, for the sake of the rest of the world, vote for this guy!
Nope. He is NOT going to win anything.
@@maneshipocrates2264that and in his campaign platform wants to pull us out of nato
@@Michael-ip1sl wtf why ? lol
He is much better than Biden and Trump. Me and eleven of my family meberes are ready to vote for him.
We need this man as president don't listen to the status quo sheep telling you otherwise. He has made so many valid points here it pisses people off. America is too ignorant, and brainwashed. This man cornell is highly respectable and for the survival of America. We need someone like him. An advocate for peace and stability. We don't need NATO. We've got our own hemisphere to work with.
Bravo Dr.West
It is always a pleasure to listen to Dr. West. This was like a dharma talk on compassion, not surprisingly. Once social needs are met...."There would be more music"... shades of Buckminster Fuller.
Professor, your vision for reforming America internally and externally seems very smart and have human face. Wish you best of luck, and if hopefully, you succeed, please free America from AIPAC corruption...
This man is exceptional man. If he win the U.S.presidential vote and be presidant of U.S. world will get relief.
He is an utter xxxx
What are you talking about? He isn't running for president.
No actually it's Mr Trump and the Abraham Accords peace deal that will bring a peaceful future.
Abraham accord didn't account for the Palestinians. No peace without justice.
look at this guy, he's a buffoon, you really think the US would let this guy be president?
I would definitely vote for him with incredible happiness
How refreshing to hear logical sound statements!
US the nation that forgot that greed is a sin.
Mr West is a true Leader

@@jaimiemclaughlin3126
The one true living God had never cared for the "majority"
Have you not noticed, that Israel is the smallest in the area, and numerous times have been attacked, by more than one nation, yet has always won ?
It's because the God that protects Israel is way stronger than all nations on earth, and he has promised to protect her in her own land
Jeremiah 31 Vs 35-37
Thus says the Lord,
Who gives the sun for a light by day,
The ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night,
Who disturbs the sea,
And its waves roar
(The Lord of hosts is His name):
“If those ordinances depart
From before Me, says the Lord,
Then the seed of Israel shall also cease
From being a nation before Me forever.”
Thus says the Lord:
“If heaven above can be measured,
And the foundations of the earth searched out beneath,
I will also cast off all the seed of Israel
For all that they have done, says the Lord.
You cannot win against the one true living God, your efforts to destroy Israel will fail.
Dear America, pls vote for this guy, save us all ..
Save us all 🤣🤣, sad but I agree
@@geofreyoteng like that girl who asked chicken from the show Cow and chicken "SAVE US CHICKEN"!!! 😭😭🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰🥰👀👀
You are naive to think that one man would make a difference. It’s the whole system. If an outsider started making big changes, mr. Lee Harvey Oswald would be back in business

hes a hack. Controlled op
Currently a lot of people in Israel and the America and even UK are suffering from pignorancce
Beautifully spoken, Dr. West.
Be a leader & change the entire world
How does it feel to have the depth of a bumper sticker?

Vote for this man! Great for America and the American people
Absolutely LOVE this interview. This guy is a true Inspiration . The world is so THIRSTY for this kind of leader.

Very talking ❤❤❤ wishes victory
After hearing this, I would B so pleased to hear these words repeated anywhere in our gov't.
Spread the word! let’s vote for Dr Cornel
Spoiler alert: his words and ideas won't be repeated by anyone in government. And he will never be elected to a position of power. That's just the way the game is set up.
Brother West is the most intelligent presidential candidate I have ever seen. This guy needs to be president!
he's not that intelligent, he's not offering black Americans anything.
You're high on legal weed, bro.
Oh yes why because he agrees with you on this one important situation to you.
@@williesullen2485 he is offering us all something together and not making it about race. which is great as a not black person :P
@@TheRealTommyBear33 why's he offering white people anything, you'll control the wealth of the country, black people are left out of everything, we need reparation to level the playing field and help close the wealth gap between black and white people. do you support cash payment for reparation to black Americans, it's easy for white people to support West because he's speaking to white people's agenda but he's not offering black Americans nothing. he's not talking about a hate crime bill, reparation in the form of cash payment.. so what is he saying he's going to do for black Americans.
Thank you!!!! With the alabama and all situation
Everything is impossible until it happens 🙏
America... please let this man fix you!
God Bless this man! He speaks to what most Americans need.
Thank you for this interview - although I wonder if the main show declined the pitch for this interview and hence it is happening here on a lesser known affiliated show. Still, these perspectives are critical to understanding the fabric of American politics.
It's so disappointing that people need this to be explained.
America will be so lucky to have Cornel West as a president! Deeply spiritual, realitistic, philosophical full of wit and wisdom ❤️❤️❤️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸✌️✌️✌️🇵🇸😇😇😇
The word truth is difficult Well done ❤
Beautiful. Thank you
Come on Krishnan. Mr West is a true humanitarian. He's against oppression of any kind, just like JCorbyn
Yes, a very similar moral and ethical agenda and analysis to Jeremy Corbyn here in the UK - with great potential to garner Mass appeal - Prof West is clearly aware of the ruthless establishment backlash and to be forewarned is to be forearmed - Americans are lucky to have such an outstanding Presidential Candidate of the highest calibre.
Dr West, we honor your integrity !
Ain't no stoping us now we're on the move all are call!😂
This man is a legend! America's saviour!
Professor West is by far the best candidate from a human perspective. He therefore is the last type of POTUS the power structure wants. If people were not so fooled by propaganda most would vote for him.
Says the person being fooled by Hamas' Propaganda.
He is spot on Healthcare policies in America 🇺🇸
Thank you ❤❤
