Video of Elizabeth Warren's speech at The New Populism Conference last week.



From the Campaign for America's Future website:

The New Populism

No transcript yet, but here's more about the Populism Conference.

The New Populism Conference is an all-day event focused on strategies for educating, energizing and mobilizing around an agenda for economic change that strong majorities of Americans already support, including:
• Investing in good jobs to achieve full employment
• Ensuring that anyone who works full time should not be in poverty
• Breaking up the banks that are “too big to fail”
• Increasing, not cutting, Social Security benefits
• Recognizing that America is not broke; the rich and big corporations are not paying their fair share.
• Rejecting the Supreme Court’s view that corporations are people, and refusing to let big money buy our democracy.

In addition, critical sessions throughout the day sharpen the progressive principles that will unite and galvanize America’s new populist majority.


There is another video at the link, which says about 9 hours long. Includes other speakers.
