Waging Peace, not War

Dear John, In 1961, Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his final speech as President of the United States. In his address, Eisenhower warned us about something he called the “military-industrial complex” – the industries that, if we’re not careful, could acquire unwarranted influence to corrupt our democrat…

Ending The Rigged Economy

Dear John, I want to talk to you today about why I am running for President of the United States.  When I was growing up, the United States had a thriving middle class. The average American family could afford a house, a car, a yearly vacation, and college for their children. One parent working one…

Establishing The Beloved Community

Dear John, Martin Luther King Jr. said that the desegregation of the American South was the political externalization of the civil rights movement, but the ultimate goal was the establishment of the beloved community.

Democracy is not “Meaningless"

Dear John,  Today Marianne made a passionate case for her vision for America in the first Democratic Presidential debate of the election (though President Biden refused to join!). With Biden’s evaporating poll numbers, the need for a new candidate to take on the GOP in 2024 is clearer — and more cr…

We Need To Keep Going

Dear John,  Last week, I shared an urgent fundraising appeal. We need hundreds of thousands of dollars to stay focused on critical ballot access, signatures, ads and more to sustain our campaign this month.   While the initial response to our appeal was strong, it has waned.

Medical Debt Should Not Exist

Dear John,  If you talk to someone in Canada or Europe or practically anywhere in the world, they probably would never have heard the phrase ‘medical debt.’ The notion of medical debt is simply unheard of in most of the world. But in the United States, one study found that 100 million people — a st…

Here’s to What’s Possible

Dear John,  The beginning of a new year represents an important passage, particularly significant in a year like this one. 2023 was not easy, and 2024 will most certainly be dramatic. Dramatic and decisive, as well, for Americans will decide on nothing less significant than whether we want to conti…

Decision Time

Dear John,  From the beginning of the campaign, I've been guided by an idea that I heard years ago: that you should be fully invested in an effort yet unattached to the result.   So many of us have been invested in this effort, and it’s time now to decide whether we’re really going for the result. …

We have got to turn around

Dear Friend,  Eviction and homelessness rates are higher than they have been in years. Millions of people working full time cannot find affordable housing.

High-Speed Rail for High-Speed Success

Dear Friend,  In politics, “double digits” means everything. And in yesterday’s Quinnipiac poll we came in at 13%!
