Jonathan Dean for Illinois - U.S. Senate US Inactive
DEAN FOR ILLINOIS
Ad copy
Politicians are actively throwing our kids futures into a dumpster and lighting it on fire, and I have had enough. I am running for US Senate because my kids, your kids, and all our kids deserve so much better than the crap that this government is pulling. If you are with me, throw me $5-10 to boost this message. It’s tough running without being a corporate shill, but I don’t want to work for those greedy bootlickers, I want to work for my kids and yours. If everyone throws in $5, then that’s alot of bucks, and I will take it to face down my corporate opponents and that is how we take power back!
