It’s no problem for spiritual adviser and author Marianne Williamson that Vogue left her out of a portrait of all of the other five female candidates running for president. She knows how to use photoshop.

After Vogue published an article that included all five of the female members of Congress who hope to clinch the Democratic primary nomination, Williamson posted a screenshot of the photo on her personal Instagram, calling out the media for excluding her from the article.

On Thursday, Williamson posted the photo again, but this time with her face photoshopped into the background of the picture, with her portrait hanging up on the wall behind the women.

“Other generations have done what they were called to do, and now it’s our generation’s time to do what we are called to do,” she wrote on Instagram. “The American revolution is an ongoing process, a continuous journey Into more and more expanded realms of possibility for everyone. It’s amazing when you dust off certain phases and reclaim them for their modern relevance. ‘Let freedom ring’ is not just a cliche after all.”

  1. I am so tired of individuals whose egos lead them to run for President based on NO true qualifications or experience for the job. Williamson may be a nice lady (with some out-of-the-box ideas on theology) but WHAT makes her think - or her supporters think - she has ANY ability to be President of the friggin’ US? The longer she stays in the race the longer she merely prolongs the inevitable and forces the Democratic Party to give her air time. This is ridiculous

    If candidate Moonbeam really wanted to help America she should seek to advise Trump by going on the Morons in the Morning show and spouting all we need is love.

  3. She imagines herself as a member of Congress and makes it so. Her district? U.S.[It’s a miracle].

  4. but WHAT makes her think - or her supporters think - she has ANY ability to be President of the friggin’ US?

    Well, for one thing: Rump. Although, I would also say with the 2016 GOP race, it’s now some kind of open season as to most anyone who has an ego that is so damaged that running for POTUS is the only way they can feel superior.

  5. Just. Go. Away.

    The future of the country is at stake.

    I’ll buy your book if that’s what it takes to make you just. go. away.
