Posts about Mike Gravel
I'm Former Alaskan Senator Mike Gravel and I've just announced that I am running for President in 2020. Instead of seeking to win the nomination, I'll be attempting to get 65,000 unique donations so that I can qualify for the Democratic debates and put American imperialism on trial. At the debate, I'll present a truly progressive vision of America, forcing establishment Democrats to go on record on things like illegal wars, healthcare, and campaign finance reform. Once I've pushed the conversation to the left at the debates, I'll drop out and endorse the leading progressive.
This is a radically different campaign for president because we are not trying to win, or even to contest any primaries. I'm here to change the conversation inside the Democratic party and open up more room on the left.
I will be joined by my Campaign Manager and Chief of Staff, David Oks (@DavidEOks) and Henry Williams (@humford), respectively. David and Henry are the two New York students responsible for convincing me to run, and for the social media storm that has surrounded our announcement. Feel free to ask us anything about our campaign or about my career fighting for peace!
