SANDERS ADDRESSES MEDIA CONFERENCE
[SOURCE: Democracy Now, AUTHOR: Sen Bernie Sanders (I-VT)]
[Commentary] Last weekend, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders gave what could be described as an alternate State of the Union before thousands gathered in Memphis, Tennessee at the third National Conference for Media Reform. (see text of speech at URL below) Sen Sanders is an Independent who was elected to the Senate in November of 2006. He is the country's first self-described socialist to be elected to the U.S. Senate. Before becoming Senator, Bernie Sanders served in the House of Representatives for 15 years where he was the longest-serving Independent in modern history.
