If elected, Mr. Shakir said, his mission would be to redefine the Democratic Party as the party of the working class including by reaching beyond the typical confines of campaigns.
We are rebuilding trust with people who don't believe the Democratic Party has been there when it matters most to them. He described the Democratic brand as fundamentally tarnished, broken and in need of repair.
It's late in the game, he said of his entrance. If we can't have a bold debate about these issues - it's now or never.
