I'm Brian Banks. I'm running as an independent in South Dakota because I don't want to ask Chuck Schumer or John Thune how to vote. I don't want to ask Republican or Democratic donors what to think. I don't want some big corporate PAC telling me I can't deliver what South Dakotans need. I don't want to take a vote I don't believe in. I'm just not gonna sacrifice my principles for politics. I want to vote against waste, corruption, and endless war. I want to serve 2 terms and then come home. I'm Brian Banks, and I approve this message.
