250 years ago, right here at St.

John's Church in Richmond, Virginia, Patrick Henry said, give me liberty or give me death.

My name is Mark Moran.

250 years later, I'm saying the same thing.

Today I'm going to announce that I'm breaking free from the Democratic establishment, that I'm going to run for United States Senate as an independent.

I'm doing that because I'm putting our country first.

I'm putting it above these divisive issues that the left, that the right, and our corporate media control.

I want to talk about big, bold ideas that will save this country.

We can't afford homes.

We can't afford health care.

We're dropping bombs on another country at the behest of another country.

were entirely controlled by corporate institutions.

We make it so that when we take out a 30-year mortgage to buy a house, over 50% of what we pay over that 30 years, it goes to the bank.

We're ripping off the middle class with our tax code that the elites who are controlling us get loopholes while we don't.

We need to simplify everything in this government, but we need to fundamentally restructure and turn this around so that it works for the people.

Everything is wrong, and it's because money controls.

That is not the system that our founding fathers designed, and I'm here to say that.

You know what I kind of sympathize?

We're on camera every day.

Right.
