He wants to be President. He is trying to set it up so that he gains political favor as 'generous' to the Zuccotti protest, and 'strong' for his secret right wing bankster and foreign backers. It is all a ruse. Zuccotti is NOT Walls St., although the brave, determined resourceful and disciplined group of people who held the park have done America well and served others proudly. </p>

In a democracy: progressives; unions; conservatives; tea party; and unaffiliated Americans can govern and work things out. In a kleptocracy, controlled by the banksters, we cannot. We must stop their influence, their motives, and their tricks, from continuing to destroy our democratic republic, and together we can do it.</p>

We demand that the resources of our nation no longer be used to coddle and benefit banksters and their minions. We demand that the US Government diligently reign in the parasitic destruction wreaked by Wall Street. We demand that our nation no longer be held hostage to 'too big to fail' banks. We demand that solutions be found that stop the Federal Reserve from stealing our future.</p>
