Afroman has tossed his hat in the ring and joined the race to be the 47th President of the United States in 2024. The musician announced his running with an Instagram post on Tuesday.
For the announcement post, adorned in a tan fur coat, lip-shaped shades, and a marijuana ring on his fingers, proudly in front of an American flag with his right hand over his hear, the “Because I Got High” rapper shared his intentions. He followed up the following day on Wednesday, Dec. 21, with a separate Instagram post laying out his eight main priorities if elected president.
In the post, Afroman addressed his followers and wrote with the cadence of someone giving a presidential speech; his caption pointed out various issues the United States has been facing and continues to struggle with. “There comes a time in the course of human events when change must be affected. That time is now,” he firmly stated. “Americans are suffering, and the status quo is no longer acceptable…We need a candidate that is truly elected by the people, and for the people,” implying without question that the candidate is none other than himself.
Read Afroman’s full candidacy statement, from his campaign manager Jason Savage, via his Instagram below.
My Fellow Americans,
There comes a time in the course of human events when change must be affected. That time is now. Americans are suffering, and the status quo is no longer acceptable.
Inflation is out of control. The economy is in shambles. The housing market is staggering. Politicians are corrupt. Bad apples are allowed to remain in law enforcement, amongst our noble and brave officers. Medicinal plants are criminalized, while pharmaceutical companies enrich themselves on chemicals with unknown side effects. The media sows the seeds of hatred 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year. They attempt to divide based on race, religion, gender, sexual preference, and every other category that they can think of.
We need a candidate that is truly elected by the people, and for the people. We need a man that can step up and lead with a firm hand. The people are starved for a Commander in Chief, that leads from a place of love and not hate. In these dark times, we need a leader that truly embodies the American dream.
My candidate IS the American Dream. Who better to lead in criminal justice reform, than a man who has traveled through the complete metamorphosis of the justice system? A man who entered juvenile hall as a tadpole, and hopped out of prison as a bullfrog, and is still the American Dream. The most rejected, disrespected, when he went for a job he was never selected, and is still The American Dream. The acceptable reject. The original Hungry Hustler. A representative of the blue state of California, and the red state of Mississippi. Our Cannabis Commander in Chief. Our Pot Head of State. Who better to hold the highest office in the land, than the highest and flyest playa in the game? He is for the black man, Mexican, even poor white, all human beings that have no rights. So put down your past, and pick up your future.
It is my immense honor and pleasure to formally announce Afroman as an independent candidate for President of the United States of America. 🇺🇸

I was gonna live in the White House but then I got high."
Now I've got campaign debt and I know why...
That's right!
Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high..."
lol...
And...?
He sure ain’t gonna get the PETA vote!
Well done.

If he’s running as a democRAT, I might switch party affiliation just to vote for him in the primary.
Hmmm ...
That would also give me the opportunity to vote against Manchin in the primary ...
Should I do it?
He needs to do a new version of California Uber Alles featuring Newsome.
Although it sounds like his ideology is spot on.
One of his “hits”...https://youtu.be/6DvvyPcWOpA
