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 authors of this letter are veteran grassroots organizers of Occupy Wall Street, and are joined by many energized brothers and sisters we have met along the way. In September 2011, our efforts changed the narrative of American politics, helping to focus it on the issues of our time: inequality, surrender to the power of concentrated wealth, the corruption of our democracy by moneyed interests, and the need for solutions as radical as our problems.
