=== Endorsed presidential candidates ===
In 2008, Democracy for America endorsed [[Barack Obama]], who was then an outspoken critic of the Iraq War. In February 2009, President Obama stated unequivocally that American occupation in Iraq will end no later than August 31, 2010. DFA did not withdraw its support for Obama after he failed to do this.

In 2016, DFA endorsed [[Bernie Sanders]] in the [[2016 United States presidential election]], in accordance with the results of a poll of their supporters conducted on the DFA website.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Wolfgang|first1=Ben|title=Powerful liberal group endorses Bernie Sanders, promises to push for 'revolution'|url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/dec/17/powerful-liberal-group-endorses-bernie-sanders-pro/?page=all|access-date=5 January 2016|work=Washington Times|date=December 17, 2015}}</ref>
