12/31/11- Enderle one of the first in country to receive Occupy Movement endorsement

“As a Democrat, I am honored and privileged to be one of the first in the country to gain the endorsement that represents the 99%! I will not let you down, and I will fight for what is right and fair! Keep on keeping on!”

The Occupation Party (TOP) is pleased to announce that it endorses Lance Enderle, Democratic candidate for Congress from Michigan's 8th district.

Mr. Enderle represents what we think of as the ideal candidate.  In his own words, he says, "I am not afraid to make the hard decisions that are needed, and will never forget who I represent. I want to be a voice of the people and not the special interests. Money should not be the dominant influence on our political process, it is imperative that we get back to the root of our great American experiment called Democracy."  He has been involved with Occupy Lansing from the start, and his positions on important issues are aligned with our draft platform.

He's been through life's ups and downs:  he's a parent and a grandfather.  He's been a public school teacher and has a master's degree in special education.  He has direct experience with modern economic life, having been laid off from a teaching position while still paying for a mortgage, paying for college loans, and supporting his family.
