Most U.S. Senate candidates spend all of their time traveling to Wall Street, K Street, LaSalle Street, Montgomery Street, and Federal Street to beg for money from millionaires and billionaires who demand obedience after they’re elected.
Most U.S. Senate candidates produce phony cookie cutter ads whose stock photography make them all look and sound the same.
So, it’s refreshing to see at least one U.S. Senate candidate, South Dakota’s Rick Weiland, running a very different kind of campaign, on Main Streets running to reform Wall Street. Three hundred and eleven South Dakota Main Streets, to be precise.
This video, shot and editied by the candidate’s son Nick, and song, performed by the candidate with family members and friends, isn’t the slickest thing you’ll ever see. It might even be a little corny for some of you hipsters. But it’s also a rare breath of fresh air in an all too polluted political atmosphere.

I can’t stop singing “I am going everywhere man, I going everywhere!” and my 15 year old daughter told my husband he had to find another song to sing this a.m. It is a GREAT video with GREAT message!
