Friends, we have done incredibly well garnering attention for our cause. We are enormous, and there are legions out there who sympathize with the 99% and have yet to join us. However it is time for us to organize the next step. At the foot of Wall Street we have spoken truth to power and let our grievances be known. However real change must arise from Washington. It is time to take our message there. Occupy DC is an excellent start, however we need to add to it. We need to descend upon our nation's capital from every corner of this country, with hundreds of thousands, dare I say millions, or representatives of the 99%.
I propose an event entitled "Occupy the Mall", aka "The March of the 99%". We will begin organizing it right now - everything is open to discussion as this is a democratic movement.
