when it comes to candidates. And to be very honest, with the DoJ led by holder didn't do as much as I would have liked. I really liked Holder, but I also know that his hands were tied because of the repeal of Glass-Steagall Act. Martin makes some REALLY good suggestions. The bottom line is that the fines were nothing more than a drop in the bucket when it came to banks breaking the rules (or as I like to call it: THE LAW)


There is no denying that SoS Clinton has a lot of money in her campaign chest that comes from Wall street. https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/contrib.php?cycle=Career&cid=n00000019

That is a fact. I don't know what the incentive is for her to champion real Wall Street Reform.

What O'MAlley offers is a way forward to prevent another economic disaster. Speaking for myself, that is important. President Obama turned the ship around, I believe that O'Malley can keep it going in the right direction.

People want to see Wall Street help accountable, Martin has a clear path as to how it could be done.
