DSCC and another one has the last name of WASSERMAN! Is he RELATED TO DWS??? Is there anyone who is good at digging and investigating? Those two stuck out on their web site. Curiously, WASSERMAN is the ONLY employee listed with NO BIO. All the others have short bio's, but that's it. Anyone want to dig into these people?
NGP VAN allowed the data breach after being warned by the Sanders campaign for months.

1. Only the desperate would sink to such levels

Such tactics will only alienate Sanders supporters, losing Hillary at least 1/3 of Democratic voters and losing her the election.

[in_cog_ni_to]

2. Oh, DWS, her DNC and HRH are behind this, no doubt about it.

We need to find out exactly who these people are. That will expose them.

3. Nathaniel Pearlman,

"Turns out that Nathaniel Pearlman, the CEO of NGP-VAN, the company that is responsible for the data leak that got Sander's campaign banned by the DNC from seeing Democratic party voter roles, was the chief technology officer of the Clinton 2008 campaign."

4. OMG.

Anyone have a Reddit account so this can get to the right people? It needs to be posted over there. This needs to be known, far and wide!

THANK YOU!

WHITE HOUSE! It's 5:45am! I have to go to bed! I'll check back tomorrow to see if anyone else is a Clinton operative.

Stu Trevelyan

Under Stu’s leadership, NGP VAN (www.ngpvan.com) is the leading technology provider to progressive organizations and campaigns, offering an integrated platform that combines the best new media, fundraising, and organizing products available. NGP VAN powers Obama for America, the DNC, Democratic state parties, the DSCC, the DCCC, the DLCC, the majority of Democratic state legislative caucuses, and thousands of other Democratic candidates and organizations; virtually every Democratic campaign and progressive political organization will use NGP VAN’s tools in 2012. NGP VAN’s Accelerator product is now the most widely used new media platform amongst Democratic candidates and is the preferred platform of the DCCC, DLCC, Emily’s List, America Votes and State Voices. NGP VAN’s innovative Social Organizing tool allows supporters of a campaign to match their Facebook friends to the voter file, and then run persuasion and GOTV virtual phonebanks (amongst other tasks). Social Organizing won the Campaign Excellence Award from the American Association of Political Consultants as the Best Use of New Technology in 2011, and TechPresident wrote that this tool “has the potential to change the way campaigns work.”

Stu, who was recognized recently by an 2012 Innovator Award from CBSi and Campaigns and Elections Magazine, has two decades of experience in the political technology space. His previous firm, the Carol/Trevelyan Strategy Group (CTSG) was one of the first digital agencies to serve progressive groups and candidates starting in 1995, and innovated several new media strategies and advocacy tools. Before starting CTSG, Stu worked directly on a number of campaigns, including working in the 1992 Clinton-Gore "War Room," and then in the Clinton White House

13. Double YIKES!!

This stinks to high heavens!

Thx for posting!

15. I used this software when I campaigned for a local race.

It was fantastic and really helped me spend my limited shoe leather time wisely. What a shame this has happened. A real stain on the group and HRC's campaign.

[Robbins]

27. this is all over social media

this whole thing stinks to high heaven.

this just looks like another attempt by DWS to fix race for clinton.the head of NGV is so closly tied with clintons.

[in_cog_ni_to]

28. GOOD! Social Media will be Bernie's saving grace!

Yep, the CEO worked Bill Clinton's WAR ROOM and his White House.

30. and on her 2008 campagin

to say he is biased towards clintons is understatement.

The deeper the crap gets. Unbelievable that they thought they could get away with this.

14. The DNC is asking NGP-VAN to audit their own files. We need an INDEPENDENT AUDIT

"The DNC has asked the firm to conduct an analysis to identify users who accessed other campaigns' data and the actions they took, and to conduct a full audit of its system as well and to begin a review process with all the campaigns and staffers use it. "

Clearly this group is too closely tied to DWS and Clinton to trust any audit they do.

[Divernan]

17. And of course they're going to cover their own asses!

[in_cog_ni_to]

20. And that is by design too! They've got to cover their tracks. BERNIE needs to call for an

Independent audit. The slime and filth coming from this has Clinton written all over it.

[wilsonbooks]

5. I get the Washington Post breaking news alerts

It is interesting that they featured this article but it wasn't breaking news that Bernie got the DFA endorsement, or the CFA endorsement or the fact that he now has 2 million donors.

[in_cog_ni_to]

6. OF COURSE! This is an attempted take-down of Bernie. The corrupt corporate owned MSM, the corrupt

DNC, DWS and HRH are ALL complicit and in on it. It's obvious.

[tecelote]

11. I'm hoping it will have the opposite affect and backfire.

This is the most media coverage Bernie has gotten during his whole campaign.

Americans can smell a rat and they love the underdog. Especially one that has their backs and is fighting the big bad oligarchy.

[in_cog_ni_to]

22. Aaaaand, MILLENNIALS know the corruption going on and aren't going to fall for this either.

Millennials, OUR TECH GENERATION! They will dig for the truth until they find it. DWS and HRH had better duck because a bunch of stuff will be flying their direction.

Bernie's supporters know the man is the most honest and ethical politician in DC. We aren't falling for their WAR ROOM SHIT.

PEACE

BERNIE

[Enthusiast]

12. It is obvious to me. Just like I knew the Iraq War was bullshit.

[in_cog_ni_to]

23. Exactly. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, acts like a duck, it's a duck.

This has Clinton and DWS written all over it.

7. Wasserman worked on Obama's campaign..

If you look at the Forbes piece it lends some credence to the notion that this should not have happened...it looks like a setup to me. I don't know if he's related.

Josh Uretsky worked on the Obama campaign, among others. He would know Wasserman I think. He's been involved in many things that look left wing but who knows. Here's a link I found.

I'm about to go to bed so this is all I have time for at the moment.

Hopefully there are others with better search skills that will join in. I'm tired and hope I haven't made a hash of it.

10. here's Wasserman's wiki entry

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aharon_Wasserman

Aharon Wasserman (born December 11, 1986) is an entrepreneur and software designer. He co-founded NationalField, a company that creates enterprise-based private social networks, with Justin Lewis and Edward Saatchi.

Early life and education[edit]
Wasserman was born to Keith Wasserman and Betsy Riley-Wasserman in Bridgeton, New Jersey. He studied political science at the New Brunswick campus of Rutgers University,[1] but left before graduation to devote himself full-time to Barack Obama's 2008 Presidential campaign.[3]

Career[edit]
While working for the Obama campaign, Aharon attained the position of deputy field director in Georgia and regional field director in Ohio.[4] His duties put him into contact with fellow volunteers, Justin Lewis and Edward Saatchi.[5] Sharing a frustration with the cumbersome task of tallying voter registration and keeping track of other campaign data, the three created a software platform that allowed them to more easily manage communications within their teams.[5] The system quickly became popular and was eventually adopted in multiple branches of the campaign, leading to its present commercial form, NationalField.[6] Wasserman currently serves as the company's president and chief product officer.[3] In 2011, he and the other co-founders were named in Forbes magazine's 30 Under 30.[2]

On November 14th, 2014, NationalField was acquired by NGP VAN.[7]

16. Pass this along to Will Pitt at TruthOut! asap!

Excellent investigative legwork!

[Divernan]

18. Also, forward this whole thread to Bernie's campaign headquarters!

[Divernan]

19. I just posted all of these incriminating links on BuzzFeednews.

Listed all the staff in one link and then specifics about individuals in separate links. Now I'm headed over to HuffPo to do the same.

[in_cog_ni_to]

21. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, divernan!

As soon as I'm on my laptop, I'll go to Truthout.org and Will Pitt and send this to him....unless someone beats me to it.

Thank you! I was so mad last night I couldn't sleep.

[Divernan]

24. Bernie will handle this in the most honorable manner possible.

He won't join them in the mud and shit in which they wallow. If MSM continues to do one-sided reporting on it, fuck them. We'll get the truth out all over the web without them and their handlers.

[in_cog_ni_to]

25. Damn right we will.

I'm anxious to hear what he has to say about this. I hope it doesn't distract him in the debate tonight - which is what it was intended to do and I'm sure the corrupt corporate owned MSM talking heads will bring it up.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

40. I love how fellow Bernistas

are on this. I, too, had trouble making myself go to bed last night, like it somehow mattered to Bernie's campaign that I stay alert.

You're being wonderful, in_cog_ni_to. I'm really liking us.

26. Awesome! I sent this thread to TruthOut

31. HUGE K & R !!! - THANK YOU !!!

[n8dogg83]

32. Let me just add my two cents. I know emotions are running high right now but...

I would encourage everyone to take a deep breath. Bernie will handle this. He did everything right in response to this by firing the incompetent staffer. He also made it clear that this security glitch was reported by his campaign months ago, so the vendor apparently needs to do some housecleaning themselves. I think the best thing we can do as Sanders supporters is DONATE!

https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/duforbernie

[link: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/duforbernie |


Lets not get into crazy conspiracy theories. Even thought they may be correct it does not serve our cause of helping Bernie get elected. We will get through this. We knew what we were up against from the beginning. All we can do is show our support by donating, making sure you continue to reach out to everyone you know and let them know about Bernie. And stick to the facts!

Thanks. I'll get off my high horse now.

[libdem4life]

35. Here's another 2 cents ... My breathing is just fine. And if there is cheating, it does affect

Bernie getting elected. As a matter of fact, it could turn the tide a bit. So yes, Trust, but verify. There are too many Clinton-backer names associated with that company to just walk away shaking our heads. And that's no conspiracy. I highly resent the use of the word which these days is synonymous with irrelevant, wacky and desperate. There were problems earlier reported by the Sanders Campaign.

Another 3 digit poster, too.

[n8dogg83]

36. Respectfully, i was not trying to imply that there is no conspiracy or that we

Bernie supporters should just walk away. We have to be ready to respond with facts to counter misinformation. What I was basically trying to say is that the best message we can send to the DNC is to give Bernie a strong fundraising boost from this to show that this kind of ratfucking just wont work. Bernie can and will weather this, I believe. Bernie is also THE most trusted candidate in this election and that will be a positive for him as he deals with it. As for being a 3 digit poster, I only joined a few months ago but I am about as committed a Bernie supporter you will find. He is who inspired me (and many others) to get more active in politics.

[libdem4life]

37. This is not a time to just GOTV. This is (I like your term ratfu###), but it surely can

work. It is almost exactly how WaterGate started. In this case, a switcheroo...or so it seems. Clever, if so. But calmly ignoring this into the political sunset is not, in my estimation, appropriate.

Bernie is going to address it, but there better be a hell of a lot more answers by this company, first and foremost, and by its security and why the DNC chose it.

BTW, welcome to DU.

[n8dogg83]

38. You're right. I'm looking forward to the press conference Bernie is having at 1pm about this...

I think that the points you raise about the vendor will be brought up by the Sanders campaign. He is getting out in front of this, which is good.


Thanks for the welcome!!

[libdem4life]

39. ...

[libdem4life]

34. I was initially chagrined at this...but Bernie acted so quickly it pretty much ended it.

But now that I read many of the players on the web server site are somehow connected to Clinton, I'm not so sure. In any case, it does warrant an inside/outside investigation. Also, it's the most publicity Bernie has gotten thus far. Let us hope that the old adage "All publicity is good, whether positive or negative.

What was that other one? Watergate? Sneaking in trying to get data or something? Oh my, I'm already trying to think up a pithy name...stop that. No...Datagate. Peekgate. Sneakgate. Hillgate. I'm sure someone can think up more and better ones.

I also hope that everyone sent this to the proper places for examination. It's about time for a real, good scandal. Inquiring minds and all.

I find it interesting that the suffix "Gate" came from our Republican friends and has been attached to a number of prefixes over the years.

[senz]

42. Excellent post.

Last night the Hillaristas were calling it "Berniegate." By the time I went to bed, they were trying to DESTROY Bernie with it, but the truth about Bernie's campaign having reported it months ago was just coming out.

Your comment makes me feel more hopeful. Thanks.
