John Washington III Says the System Is Broken and Asks Voters to Stand With Someone Who Actually Works for Them
Presidential candidate John Washington III says politicians chase votes, then money, and then forget the people — and that nothing changes until voters stand with someone who actually works for them.

Presidential candidate John Washington III says the political system is broken, and he is asking voters to stand with him to fix it. “I’m John Washington III, presidential candidate,” he wrote in a statement. “The system is broken.”
In the statement, John Washington III argued that politicians chase the public twice — first for their votes, then for their money — and then forget them. They say “fight for you,” he wrote, and then go back to business as usual once the campaign is over.
“This doesn’t change until the people stand with someone who actually works for them,” John Washington III wrote. “I’m that candidate. Stand with me. Let’s take our power back.”
The statement is a direct appeal to voters from John Washington III, who is running for president in 2028. In it, he draws a single line between politicians he says work the system for themselves and a candidate he says will work for the people — and he asks the public to choose the second.
