DES MOINES, Iowa - Marianne Williamson came to the Iowa State Fair on Friday with a simple request: Take me seriously.
Williamson didn’t talk like a politician either. She spoke of “energies” and the nation’s “deep goodness.” Americans, she said, “were born of a rambunctious spirit” and added that the presidential election requires “a rising of consciousness.”If elected president, she would not operate a “top-down leadership paradigm” but instead would “co-create” with the public.
So far, that interest has not translated into widespread support, however. She sits below 1% in public opinion polls, and is in danger of not qualifying for the next debate in September.“I’ve heard that I’m dangerous. I’ve heard that I’m crazy. I’ve heard that I’m a grifter,” she said.
