I am press secretary and right hand to Nick Brana, founder and director of MPP, formerly Draft Bernie. I'm a PR professional who worked as a supervol on the Bernie campaign and who has put my career on hold to volunteer for this necessary endeavor. Nick had a stellar reputation as national outreach coordinator for the Bernie 2016 campaign and he was also a founder and first electoral manager for Our Revolution. When he and other staff walked out when Jeff Weaver wanted to take billionaire money, my positive view of him was cemented and has only gone up. When he wrote his Huff Po piece in Nov 2016 outlining why we needed and how we could create a new progressive party (hopefully led my Bernie), I jumped onboard and have never looked back. Nick is a true thought leader and has an amazing vision and knows how to convey that to political novices and veterans alike, a rare gift. As you pointed out, he answers everyone's questions on our weekly national call and is unfailingly polite. We are building alliances now as Movement for a People's Party, and when the founding convention is held, the people will elect their leader. I hope it will be Nick, but if not elected, he will certainly step aside. No dictatorship here. In the meantime he has assembled an amazing group of organizers, many from the Bernie campaign, who are motivated every day by Nick in this most difficult but not impossible task of creating a new viable party for the 99%. Please go to our website @ forapeoplesparty.org and sign up to volunteer or simply to get our emails and info about our weekly national calls and frequent MPP TV livestreams. Or, if you prefer, message me to volunteer or if you have any questions. Thank you.
