Excerpt:

(CNN)Marianne Williamson is running to be "Madam President" and she wants to make sure no one forgets it.

The author and spiritual adviser was recently left out of a Vogue feature and photoshoot about the five other female candidates vying for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. So her campaign posted a digitally edited version of the portrait that includes her.

"Happy July 4th! 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. The American revolution is an ongoing process, a continuous journey Into more and more expanded realms of possibility for everyone," she wrote in a Fourth of July post on Instagram. "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."

The campaign says while it found the edited photo very funny, it didn't create the meme.

"All credit goes to the people of the internet who never fail to deliver," her campaign said.

Vogue's story, titled "Madam President? Five Candidates on What It Will Take to Shatter the Most Stubborn Glass Ceiling," was written by Amy Chozick and featured photography from photographer Annie Leibovitz. Though Williamson was mentioned in the piece, she doesn't appear to have been interviewed.
