The late Senator Paul Wellstone's campaign manager called him a "man of principle and conviction, in a world that has too little of either. He was dedicated to helping the little guy, in a business dominated by the big guys"

Wellstone was truly a senator of the people. He fought hard to ensure that small farmers and small businesspeople stood a chance against multinational conglomerates. He championed the poor and the homeless when most politicians paid them no attention. He insistently stood up for the rights of veterans.

Wellstone's agenda ran against the prevailing culture of corporate greed, militarism, and elitism. We will carry forward Wellston's vision for America: to make liberty and justice not mere slogans, but realities
