Martin O'Malley
Related: About this forumO'Malley 10-Page Financial Plan: Protecting The American Dream From Another Wall St. Crash
from the 10-page white paper:
Governor OMalley knows that the American Dream today remains out of reach for too many families. To attack this problem, it will take a multi-pronged and fearlessly progressive approach to addressing economic inequality. But the results of any steps we take as a nation to raise wages, ensure retirement security, and make the dream of homeownership a reality can be wiped out in an instant by another Wall Street crash.
We need to protect Americas economy. And we can only do it by implementing strong accountability and structural reforms that build upon the Dodd-Frank Act and put an end to too-big-to-fail, too-big-to-manage, and too-big-to-jail financial firms.
BRINGING REAL ENFORCEMENT TO WALL STREETFINALLY

This touches on a genuine weakness of the (generally terrific) Obama Admin. Yes, please!

Unfortunately, they linked to a racist satire site in one of the footnotes and my entire Obama supporting timeline in twitter has blown up over it. People who were considering O'Malley have written him off because of this. Dumb mistake by his staff.
