Bernie Sanders

We Are People for Bernie
We are activists and organizers trying to build a broad, effective movement for democratic change. We come from different backgrounds, and were inspired by different issues and fights for peace, rights and the planet. Our goal is a government that carries out the will of the people, and not serve to increase the profits of the 1% at the expense of the rest of us.
To that end we support Bernie Sanders in his bid to become the presidential nominee of the Democratic Party. We stand firmly behind Senator Sanders as the strongest progressive possibility in the race right now. His commitment to our values is one of long standing commitment. Sanders is the bold alternative.
As a truly progressive candidate for the Democratic Party nomination, Senator Sanders has the chance to inspire millions of Americans with policy proposals that put the interests of the 99%, front and center.
Franklin D. Roosevelt called out the economic royalists of his day. Senator Sanders is picking up the banner. He answers to We the People and not to the corporate and financial sectors. Bernie brings the kind of leadership that is necessary to building a real, living democracy.
The initiators of this letter are veteran grassroots organizers of Occupy Wall Street,....
Looks like OWS has found its candidate! Meet-ups all over the country are slated for tomorrow. A bit short notice but still.

(37,152 posts)1. Great news...
imo Bernie's (and Warren's) "Enough is enough!" began with Occupy Wall Street - that's where the conversation started in a big way.
