Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a
congressional candidate from New York, a Democratic Socialist of America (DSA)
member, who recently unseated the centrist incumbent Rep. Joe Crowley, will be
here in Wichita tomorrow. Also with her will be Bernie Sanders and
4th District Congressional candidate James Thompson.
Sanders may run for
president again in the next Democratic presidential primary.
Sanders has become a real
powerful person within the Democratic Party. He has been trying to move the
party left and he may be succeeding. While Thompson does not call himself a
socialist, he has been supported by Sanders.
Said Sanders:
"I think if you read the platform right
now, you will understand that the political revolution is alive and
kicking," Sanders’s
policy director, Warren Gunnels, told
NBC News at the time, adding that campaign got "at least 80
percent" of what it wanted.
This
event is planned for at 1pm tomorrow at Century II.
