Kanye West: 'I Am Running for President of the United States'

Linkedin Share

President Kanye West and First Lady Kim Kardashian. Maybe brother Rob for Secretary of State? How about Khloe for Education Secretary? Kylie would probably make a great attorney general!

Okay, jokes aside — Kanye is running for POTUS, apparently.

That’s what he tweeted.

From Billboard:

Kanye West has returned to headlines recently, whether for his 10-year deal with Gap (Yeezy Gap will arrive next year) or for his latest surprise single “Wash Us In the Blood” featuring Travis Scott.

But Saturday night, on the Fourth of July, West shared his most important news to date: he’s running for president in 2020.

LOOK:

From Barack Obama to Donald Trump to Kanye…or even Akon? It could happen. You never know.

Though raised in Senegal, rapper Akon was actually born in Missouri. From the sound of it, the guy doesn’t necessarily sound overtly liberal.

From Daily Wire:

Speaking on “The Real” Monday, the “Don’t Matter” singer said that a 2024 presidential run “might be possible.”

Akon noted, “I know what the issues are. As a person, as an immigrant, as a black man, as whatever you want to call it, I kinda know or feel like I know that I can take the country and move it forward. I really believe so.
