Dear Sharra, As I travel across this country, I speak to folks across the political spectrum, and I find that they have much more in common than we usually think. Whether they are conservatives, liberals, or anything else, they are all concerned about the corruption of our democracy and the influence of big money drowning out the voices of the working class.
The media makes us think that the most important divide in this country is between conservatives and liberals, but the real divide is between the powerful few and the working-class majority. Our democracy works very well for the few, but it has stopped working for the many – the everyday people who work long hours to barely make ends meet.
Our campaign is the lone voice in this primary election standing up to corrupt corporate rule. We champion publicly financing elections, overturning Citizens United, banning Congress members from lobbying or trading stocks, and much more.
While myriad issues demand our attention, they are but symptoms of a deeper malaise – the usurpation of democracy by Big Money. Only when we solve this core issue and take back our democracy can we begin to deal with everything else.
Please do what you can to support our campaign so that we can begin to build a democracy that works for all of us, not just the powerful few. |
P.S. Come volunteer with us!
Our campaign is on the move and we are looking for volunteers — join us for events, canvasing, phone banking and more!
