Yesterday, the Kendrick Meek for U.S. Senate Campaign released a new radio ad featuring President Barack Obama. In it, the president lauds Meek as a proven fighter for the middle class and pointed to Meek's leadership holding Wall Street accountable, making college more affordable, and opposing the Bush tax breaks for the wealthy.“Kendrick's been a powerful voice for Floridians,” Obama said in the ad, “Standing up to special interests, to hold Wall Street accountable, fighting the insurance industry to make sure health care isn't denied to our children because of a preexisting condition, working to eliminate subsidies to banks so young people can afford a college education, and Kendrick strongly opposes extending tax breaks for the wealthy and has worked tirelessly to expand the middle class and support small businesses.”
