We Want Elizabeth Warren

sorry these links are not live.. go to info page on FB...

This is a grassroots campaign to support the nomination and confirmation of a true champion of the middle class, Elizabeth Warren, to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Description
Harvard Law School Professor Elizabeth Warren developed the idea of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to help protect consumers from the abusive practices of the financial sector. In order for her to lead it, she must be nominated by President Obama and confirmed by the Senate by July! The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, American Bankers Association and other K-Street lobbyists are working to destroy her chances because they fear her. We're sick of being abused by the banks! We're sick of being marginalized in the political process! We are creating the U.S. Chamber of Citizens to campaign for her appointment.

The persistent myths of the "self-correcting free market," the "invisible hand," and "trickle-down economics" are hurting America. With the Great Depression and now the Great Recession as irrefutable, empirical evidence, the American people are beginning to recognize the fact that the game on Wall Street is easily rigged, and, we must find ways to regulate it so that consumers are protected from abusive practices.

We the People will fight for a strong Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. There are many powerful and wealthy enemies of consumer protection, and often they express their power by inserting themselves into our political process through direct lobbying, shady campaign financing, and political advertising conglomerations like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

We must demand a White House nomination and Senate confirmation of Elizabeth Warren as the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The make-or-break period will be from now until July, and this will be a primary focus for Coffee Party USA, and all Americans who willing to stand up to the ruling elite, stand up for economic fairness, and reverse our path to "feudalism with cable TV."
