Sanders:
What
choice
do
Californians
have
in this election?
The biggest one of all.
You have the power to choose a new direction for
the Democratic Party,
to break the back of a corrupt system of campaign
finance that keeps a rigged economy in place,
to stand up to Wall Street, and make the wealthy
pay their fair share,
to fight for tuition-free public colleges and
universities.
California, it's a long way to Washington, but you
can send them a message they can't ignore.
I'm
Bernie
Sanders,
and
I
approve this
message.

Sanders Releases New
California Ad
SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. – Bernie Sanders’ presidential
campaign on
Tuesday released a new television spot that will run in California
ahead of the state’s June 7 primary election.
“What choice do Californians have in this election?” Sanders
asks in
the ad. “The biggest one of all. You have the power to choose a new
direction for the Democratic Party. To break the back of a corrupt
system of campaign finance that keeps a rigged economy in place. To
stand up to Wall Street and make the wealthy pay their fair share. To
fight for tuition-free public colleges and universities.”
Sanders on Monday called on Hillary Clinton to join him for a
debate
in
the country’s most populous state, but the former secretary of state
declined to participate. Sanders said it was “insulting to the people
of California – our largest state – that she is not prepared to have a
discussion with me about how we address the major crises we face.”
“California, it’s a long way to Washington, but you can send
them a
message they can’t ignore,” Sanders says as the ad concludes.
Sanders ran a spot in California in April during one of
Clinton’s high dollar fundraisers in the state. The ad,
called
“$27,”
focused
on
the
average
contribution to the senator’s
grassroots campaign. Clinton asked donors to raise $353,400 to get
a
seat next to her at the head table during two California fundraisers.
George Clooney, the actor who hosted both events, called that an
"obscene amount of money."
