Let us know you are as outraged by "Chained CPI" as we are, and that you have no intention of being duped into stealth austerity measures again.

Having Elizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown and Bernie Sanders standing behind you would help with your credibility.

I'm still not convinced he's all that great a prez, to be honest.

So now the food is coming "off the table" too as people won't be able to afford it anymore.
