Promoted or mentioned?

In the clip I watched he mentioned some names. Hardly a "promotion".

As I see it, the group is more aimed at moderates in both establishment parties than the left. Obama, rather than Nader, would be a better fit with them.

...on earth would he mention them if he isn't promoting them?

>> i don't think so. president obama said the other day, there is no quick fix to the high gas prices, well, there are a few. you stop your people from constantly threatening iran. that is another whole story, and ron paul has it right on that, and that deals with counter belligerent language and then the mercantile exchange speculators increased the price of gasoline for millions of american motorists and that is one way to dampen the price of gasoline. and establish more competition. and americans elect which has a vote which is under way now to have a third party candidate whether it is bud ldy croamer or walker or whoever, but it will change whatever works.


The transcript is a bit messed up, but he specifially said Buddy Roemer or David Walker in the clip.

Also, you seem to misunderstand the site. The group is not pushing Obama or Sanders, their names are on the list and visitors selected them.
