Sherrod Brown to run for Progressive leadership

Mansfield, OH - Today, Progressive MP Sherrod Brown announced his intent to run for the leadership of the Progressive Party, despite current Progressive leader Bernie Sanders, at-large MP from Vermont, running for another term as leader. Brown, 63, has been serving Ohio at-large since 2007, and served Ohio's 13th district from 1993 to 2007. In his announcement speech in his hometown of Mansfield, OH, he thanked Sanders for his dedication to the party before talking about his achievements and ambition for the Progressive Party. He hopes the Party will be able to be a part of the next government.

If I had to guess, I'd assume it's due to the misconception that the Progressive Party is nothing more than a fringe party that the Northeast and Northwest love for some reason. However, we are so much more than that.

If I am elected, I will focus on the issues I've focused on since I became MP for OH-13 in 1993. First, I will fight for economic policies that strengthen our middle class. We need to create jobs, rebuild American manufacturing, invest in our small businesses, and train workers for new opportunities in new industries.
Secondly, I will focus our foreign policy on advancing stability and prosperity here at home and abroad. This is not only tied to military actions, but includes foreign aid, development assistance, and support for universal human rights, as well as fighting the conditions that breed terrorism.
Thirdly, I will work to promote equal rights. From expanding economic opportunities for low-income Americans to opposing discrimination in every form, I will continue to fight and protect the civil rights and liberties of all citizens.

As disappointed as I am the Liberals didn't pick us in 2012, I'd like to form a coalition with them, as our policies are fairly close and we can push America in a better, more progressive direction. I'd also look into coalitions with Jacksonians and the Independents.

We see a key opportunity to expand our party this year. While I thank and respect MP Sanders for his work, we need new leadership to seek this opportunity, and I feel like I'm the one who can seize it and get us into the next government, and quite possibly even lead it.
