Marianne Williamson with CNN’s Dana Bash.

          CNN’s  Dana Bash moderated the event.

          Marianne Williamson announced her candidacy on January 29, 2019.

          I wish to present the following three aspects while highlighting the event :

          1.  Vision :  Figure below represents Marianne Williamson’s  vision : 

          From disconnect to connect ;  From suffering and conflict to harmony and peace ;  From power of fear to power of love ; – Marianne Williamson wants a transformation in America’s future lead by a political visionary, his/her words reflecting the voice of the heart of citizens.

          2.  Priorities  :  Figure below represents Marianne Williamson’s  Priorities triad : 

           (a) Marianne Williamson bats for  ‘Medicare for All’  with a holistic approach where not just access to doctor but avoiding toxins and environmental disorders will be emphasized.  (b)  She supports Criminal Justice Reform ;   and  (c)  her goal is to let the U.S.  reenter the Paris Climate Agreement.  

          3.  Leadership Style  :  Figure below represents Marianne Williamson’s Leadership style as can be formulated from her responses in the Town Hall :

          The following are the three elements that constitute her Leadership style :  (a)  Timely, lively, and speedy actions be it in restoring Justice (reparations), Economy,  Health or Education. (b)  Arrest the slide that America witnessed in the last 40 years through creation of a moral and spiritual awakening which she terms as the ‘Magic Political Force’  and  (c)  A change in the approach to all the issues plagued by the nation that will be a blend of human-rights/dignities  and  general welfare of the citizens.  She discusses hate and love in this context.

          Conclusion :  Quick on the draw,  prompt in perception,  and ready to impart learning,  meaning, and understanding on all issues – Marianne Williamson proved herself to be an  action taking lady.
