#3 Marianne Williamson's only previous political initiative was in 2014 when she ran in the Democratic primary for a Congressional District in Los Angeles county when Henry Waxman retired from that seat. She got some big endorsements but finished 4th. After her loss she said,
“This conversation of a politics of conscience, a politics of the heart, is much bigger than any one woman winning a congressional seat. And if that woman loses, the conversation goes on. My losing the congressional seat is small; what’s big is the larger conversation… you impact the ethers, and that energy goes somewhere.” |
