Friend,
Bernie Sanders drew 25,000 people to a rally in New York City.
Elizabeth Warren has captured more than 30% of likely voters. All in all, we have a great field of candidates discussing deep policy needs.
And yet the New York Times just ran a front-page story with the headline "Anxious Democratic Establishment Asks, 'Is There Anybody Else?'"
The corporate media is notorious for listening to a handful of elites and consultants rather than millions of voters. Meanwhile, key issues like the healthcare crisis, student loan debt, and climate change are ignored in favor of constant polling and stories about party infighting.
That's why Common Dreams, as an independent, nonprofit news outlet, is so crucial to the 2020 election. We don't have corporate backers dragging us away from the real issues, and we are only accountable to you, our readers.
We know that you are informed, sophisticated consumers of media, and we know that you want to know how the candidates—the ones actually running—differ on the issues. And we count on you to keep our top-notch reporting going, which is why we're asking for your help during our Fall Campaign.
We have a $50,000 goal for our Fall Campaign in order to keep our independent journalism alive. Can we count on your donation?
We can't do it without you.
