Cornel West-Demagogue

A couple of years ago, Princeton "professor" Cornel West was invited to speak at UC Irvine. I didn't know about it until it had passed and I read about it in the campus newspaper. There was a photo of the then chancellor and vice chancellor sitting in the audience literally swooning over West and whatever he was saying. It was disgusting.


This past week, West spoke at an anti-Israel rally in Washington. Here he is in all his demagogic glory talking about the "annihilation" of the Palestinian people. What is he talking about?


This man is nothing but a cheap demagogue who is an embarrassment to Princeton just as he was at Harvard before then-president Larry Summers figured out that he had very little academic and research/writhng credentials.


As for his description of President Obama, I would say that Obama is a lot of things, but he is not a war criminal. That is just plain demagoguery.


I can't believe this guy is a professor.


Strike that. I can believe it.
