In a recent interview with Joe Rogan, Kanye West revealed that Oprah had told him not to run for president. Kanye didn’t mention in detail the entire conversation with her, but in the interview, West recalls his encounter with Oprah, sharing wtih Rogan,  “I remember running into Oprah two days or one day after that, and she’s like you don’t want to be president,”. West went on to state, “One of the things Oprah said is she said, ‘you got to bone up on your foreign affairs.’ I remember this, because it’s Oprah talking, so I’m gonna remember a lot of what the conversation was, but that’s the first thing she said was foreign affairs and foreign policies”.

The ‘Jesus Is King’  Rapper had been advised by numerous individuals and peers to not enter the 2020 Presidential Race, but he went ahead and did it anyway, in distinctively Kanye West fashion. The rapper is on the ballot in 11 different states making it statistically difficult for him to win, as he is a write in candidate, and he also appears as a vice-presidential choice on the ticket.
