Vote for Me, I am a Victim. I need your sympathy.

Mr. One Percent doesn't want to talk about the issues, so his office produced an audio to be released later to PROVE how ruthless the Political Left is after the so called ethnic attack on his spouse.

He'll run on sympathy until he dies because he is unable to sustain an honorable record that actually improve the lives of people. The only record he has is supporting profits to Wall Street and padding his own pockets.
