How 'Occupy Wall Street' turns into 'Occupy White House'
'March for Bernie' Is an Occupy Wall Street Homecoming
A common theme among the constituencies is a deep mistrust for establishment candidates many express disenchantment with America's two-party system through banners, chants and other means. "We feel the Democratic Party has failed us. Corporate America always has the upper hand, there's no social mobility or access to jobs," says Marni Halasa, a professional figure skater. Halasa has joined a group of Sanders marchers wearing Pinocchio noses, which she explains are meant to represent Hillary Clinton. "She is disingenuous and not honest she pretends to be a populist," says Halasa, amid cries of "Dump the elephant, dump the ass!"
Halasa explains this seeming contradiction of being against the Democratic Party while marching for a Democratic candidate. "Even though it sounds weird, we're progressives against Hillary. The key campaign issue for us is money out of politics," she says, arguing Sanders is the only major party politician whom she can trust to not be influenced by corporate donations or the billionaire class. "If Bernie doesn't get the nomination, I'll vote for the Green Party," she says, "and if a Republican wins, I might have to leave the country."
