According to RawStory, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont appeared on Countdown with Keith Olbermann this evening:“
What I appreciate about what is going on in New York right now is there is a spotlight being focused on Wall Street, we desperately need that,” he said. “If we’re going to get out of this recession, we’re going to create the millions of jobs that we desperately need, we need real Wall Street reform.”“Focusing attention on Wall Street is exactly the right thing to do,” Sanders added.
The video has been posted on Youtube. Among other things, Keith gives a nice rundown of current and promised union support from the Air Line Pilots Association, the New York City Transit Workers, the United Federations of Teachers, the SEIU, and mentions possible help from the United Auto Workers.(And I am sure that many have noticed the attention #OccupyWallStreet is getting at Teamster Nation.)
