Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders joins CBS News to discuss his performance at the 10th Democratic debate hosted by CBS News in Charleston, South Carolina. Watch his remarks here.
We pay him, cause he's cool like that and we like breaking records. People might actually vote if someone had their interests at heart. Now we got a chance so gotta try at least.
In what those candidates and everyone spews is a democracy that’ll be ruined by Bernie is the same people happy about people spending 2k to attend what should be available to all. A democracy is for everyone not just those who could afford it
Ron Gavalik you think Bernie loves the working class? Right from the fact he has passed almost nothing meaningful in Congress in 40 years to the fact he thinks everyone from Vermont has a 600,000 “summer camp” to the fact that he is promising all these free stuff with ZERO idea of how to pay for them.. oh don’t forget at least Castro had a good literacy plan which seems very relevant in comparison to how many dissidents he killed Also when asked why he as a millionaire would not want to pay more taxes voluntarily he said why should I and he doesn’t do much charity either That working class champion
@@shaunlee8425 Tax the rich is the idea how to pay for it. To get that done is difficult, but its possible. Bernie builds a mass movement; his strategy is to use the inside of the system and a mass movement outside to pressure it. That is a good strategy in my opinion. What is this thing about Castro again? Bernie condemned the bad parts about his government. You are just forcing this point, its laughable. Which Cuban government was better, which worked better for the people of Cuba - the Castro government or the government before, the Batista government? There is only one true answer here. Viva Fidel! Is what the people of Cuba said about the man whose revolution brought healthcare and education to every Cuban citizen. Was it the perfect political system? No. So what. Bernie is right, TRUTH IS TRUTH. The good parts of the Cuban government are not cancelled by the bad parts. And the bad parts are not cancelled by the good parts. The part about Bernie should invidiually pay more taxes or do charity is laughable as well. When one rich person does that it means NOTHING. If you think one single millionaire should do that, then thats dellusional. It won't help anyone. You need higher taxes for the rich; FOR ALL millionaires and billionaires. Not for ONE, but for ALL of them. Otherwise its a stupid policy that won't change anything. And yes, Bernie is the working class champion here, I am sorry but its true. Who else wants to strengthen unions in such a way as Bernie wants? Who else wants to give universal healthcare on top of that? I am sorry, but these are OBJECTIVELY the best policies for the working class.
@@shaunlee8425, I'm sorry you've swallowed every establishment talking point to smear Bernie. You can regurgitate those lies all over the web if you want, but I'm not sure how they help anyone. Thousands of others are spewing the same poison. As an author myself and a socialist, I would be delighted if my books earned me a million dollars. Socialism is about democracy in the workplace, so we all have a say in our roles, our pay structures, our working lives. It's not the same as being a Jesuit priest who vows poverty. From what I've learned about Bernie over the years is that he's extremely charitable. He has dedicated tons of his time and much of his earnings to improving the lives of his community. That's pretty awesome. I really don't mind that he has a camp. A friend of mine has a fishing cabin. It's pretty nice as well. I think you need to step away from the cable "news" programming. I did several years ago and I'm really much happier.
Lol they didn't learn their lesson after what happened with Trump. The mainstream media talked sh*t about Trump constantly, which only helped him. Same thing is happening with Bernie. The more the media throws obvious anti-Bernie propaganda, the more donations Bernie gets.
Embarrassing debate organized by CBS tonight, paid shills in the audience and lack of moderating by moderators. Pete very rudely spoke over Bernie every time and wasn't told to stop.
You think Trump's not going to talk over people? You've got to be able to handle anything. Bernie looked visibly upset and was even more crotchety than usual for the rest of the debate.
@@Chowder7116 i agree. But it's just funny that now the "votebluenotmatterwho" and "unity" attitude has all but gone out the window now that Bernie is the frontrunner. Bernie held his own in this debate and that's all he needed to do
Bernie brats, now cry babies, Pete is a real gentleman, wait for the orangutan in the WH, he's classless and will not even discuss policy but talk about idiotic things. How is Bernie, or Bernie brats,, if he's the nominee, deal with that?

He is the easiest person to attack because he is crazy! For one he lies. Sweden, Denmark and Finland are not socialist countries. They are capitalist. They are also turning their healthcare more to private insurance away from government run like Bernie talks about. Bernie has no idea about math.
@@jaimemcdanieltravels Pretty ironic then that what you just typed is all misinformation 1) Bernie has never claimed those countries are socialist and he has never claimed that he wants the US to become socialist. He is a capitalist and wants the US to stay that way 2) Bernie is not advocating for "government-run" healthcare. That's a misnomer. Under his plan all the private companies will still exist. He IS advocating for medicare for all. Meaning you would get a medicare card that allows you to access medical care at almost any medical establishment and not pay out of pocket. The government would not run hospitals/dentists/etc. So, in conclusion, essentially nothing you typed is true. Do some actual research of your own and stop spouting things others have told you.
@@jaimemcdanieltravels All right, Lets pretend that for 1 second you are correct in saying those countries arent heavily influenced by socialism. Bernie still says he wants to be like those countries, Every plan he proposes has been done in those countries. Paid access to a higher education, applying greener energy solutions, Free and affordable health care for everyone. Those are the issues he is for those are the issues we face, those are the issues that every single first world country has already solved. When you say "turning their healthcare more to private insurance" Please provide a legislative source. I want to see the exact proposal and support for said proposal, Cause frankly. I dont believe you, and i cant find this at all in sweden, denmark or finland legislation. So either, its hidden away, or you are lying, or you have been misinformed. berniesanders.com/issues/how-does-bernie-pay-his-major-plans/?fbclid=IwAR3cKBSREe3JaTspWGyPbCmHdw5OWVTMKa5o3asrJ3hqrseU9yHN72w1-24 Read his proposals, look at the numbers and do that math yourself. To me it seems to all work out rather well. Especially the Tax on wall street gambling. 50 cent tax for every 100 dollars traded on the stock market. Which will give us 2.4 trillion in tax revenue over the next 10 years... wait... 2.4 trillion in extra tax revenue, what could that be used for hmm? Perhaps paying back all 2.2 trillion dollars of student loan debt. And if i look here, thats exactly what it goes to. A specific tax, that goes to a specific place. wild right?
@@paulthomas9911 “When I was poor and complained about inequality they said I was bitter; now that I'm rich and I complain about inequality they say I'm a hypocrite. I'm beginning to think they just don't want to talk about inequality.” - Russell Brand
@Waynem LambertI do not understand why you and others are redbaiting, fearmongering, and straight up lying about Mr. Sanders. Bernie only repeated Obama's sentiment that for an otherwise impoverished nation, Cuba did well in making sure everyone is literate and has access to healthcare. He is not a socialist, but a democratic socialist in the tradition of great American presidents like FDR and Eisenhower. What he believes in is the melding of free market economics with a comprehensive welfare state that decreases income inequality. This works very well in the Nordic countries like Denmark, Norway, etc. What exactly does population size have to do with our ability to provide universal healthcare?
What I like about Bernie is that he doesn't take the easy way out, he sticks to what he believes. People say he shouldn't talk about Cuba because it offends 2 politicians in Florida. These people just don't get it. I'll be proud to have someone with his integrity as my President.
@@PawOfRizzo Why do you have to lie to make the point? He expressly denounced the regime and the authoritarian governments, but said it's good to teach people to read. Your dishonesty is evidence that you don't have a legitimate argument.
Agree 100%! Integrity is a far fetched concept for Trump (and many of his followers have followed suit). I get a kick out of them calling him a communist...it just isn’t factual. They’re showing up to a basketball game with a hockey stick...but ignorance breeds ignorance after all.

Over 60-countries have "single payer" systems. Educate yourself, insted of being a reactionary.

@Whatever the kind of leader that has been consistent for 40 years, that PLAYS THE LONG GAME. That knows it is not about the one lost (or even won !) race. Ran for higher office in the 1970s against the Vietnam war, and left economic policies and against regime change (with a small Independent left party) The candidates of that party were lucky when they got 4 % of the vote. Seemed to be a waste of time then. In 1981 he won the race of mayor with 10 more votes (that was a stunning upset). He was 40 then, this was the first well paid job with benefits he had. he was not overly worried about being low income in his thriteis and late twenties , but I guess things change if you are middle age. Well he did a good job, so he could keep his post as mayor. There certainly was an incentive to now do things the "establishment" way: getting friendlier with the state party with large donors, ral estate developers, ... He won the next race 2 years later. That was very competitive, but he won with a wide margin and very much increased turnout. Even though the aldermen (many were buddies of the ousted mayor which had been a big name in the VT Democratic party) had blocked him at the beginning. He did not even have the veto power until the next election of the council members gave him a few more that were not hostile. So he could not even use the full 2 years as he would have liked to. He got good grades by the voters in every office he held - he stubbornly insisted on finaning campaigns NOT like others did (chasing dollars). When he was in Congress aspiring lobbyists were told not to bother contacting him, it was a waste of time. THAT kind of politician would be unfazed by the rigged race of 2016 and continue to keep the eyes on the prize. In spring 2015 Ed Schultz had a camera team in Burlington to cover live the announcement of Sanders that he would run for office. After that they planned to air a prerecorded short intervew. Ed was orderend 5 minutes before start to stand down. Ed's theory: "observers" had informed the Clinton machine that a major network planned more than to mention his announcement in passing. It was a fine day, respectable crowd of 2,000 or 3,000. The Clinton campaign phoned Phil Griffin boss of MSNBC that they did not want Sanders to get that kind of coverage. Mind you: no one expected Sanders to have a chance (incl. Sanders, they had initially planned with 30 millions in small donations). But Clinton had an "early state trauma" after 2008, especially because of the sensational win of Obama in Iowa. And the Clinton campaign assumed Sanders _could_ do fairly well in Iowa and New Hampshire. - Nothing screams "strong inevitable candidate" like having to tip the scales against a complete outsider like Sanders right in the beginning. Sanders KNEW from the start that they would play dirty, when Ed did NOT cover live after they had coordinated to go live at 5 pm. Sanders did not whine about it, he and his campaign never mentioned it. We only know that because Ed Schultz told the story approx 6 months before he died. Sanders wanted to discuss issues like healthcare, student debt, regulation of banks - and he used the platform the primaries gave him. Ed Schultz does not "know" that Griffin was told by the Clinton machine to stop coverage of the small outsider campaign. Ed's description was: they are joined at the hip. - He had a well founded suspicion. Griffin did not give him any reason, there was a heated exchange on the phone - the team was in Burlington after all. Ed Schultz was ordered to cover some nonsense and a press conference of the day before that was more relevant but had gotten plenty of coverage already. So obviously this was not the kind of news to justify aborting costly on the ground live reporting. After the shock of the lost presidential race the DNC appointed the Independent (Sanders had returned to that status immediately after the convention) to be Outreach for the Democratic party. THAT suited him best (a position in the party hierarchy does not help you to leverage power when you are not an "insider"). The DNC salivated over his maillist, they wanted to get to his supporters - and likely thought they could use Sanders as figurehead. He got better media coverage after the lost Nov. election than when he was a candidate. He used that better access to airtime VERY well. Whatever the issue of an interview was - he always brought up HEALTHCARE as well. the hosts knew his shtick and resigned themselves to it. I wonder if they could have interviewed him on a recipe for potato salad and he still would have found away to bring up healthcare. Excellent marketing ! the "broken record" strategy. Repeating a message over and over. He toured the country with townhalls. Meanwhile HRC was in the woods, tending her bruised ego, and had meetings with her ghostwriters to get her book (Everybody's Fault But Mine) ready for sales. Sanders and allies learned from the 2015 and 2016 campaign, this time they were not afraid the small donations would dry up, they dared to invest in staff and groundgame from the start. They do a lot of things differently. Incl. hiring a lot of staff out of communities. Who then leverage the MANY volunteers. They have an app that helps volunteers to activate the peole they have "recruited" to turn out (they get text reminders). In NV it was important to fill in all 3 choices on the ranked choice ballot used for early voting or the ballot was not valid. Early voting was a new offer. The state party had not communicted that very well and of course next time people will be more used to it. 3 % of ballots were invalid - but when all campaigns learned of that problem, but the Sanders campaign could reach many of their supporters and volunteers and tell them. Early voting took long there were weiting lines, so if a critical mass of voterd know the information spreads. Sanders can build on name recognition so this time he has a chance with the black community, with Latinos. In 2015 and early 2016 they built the plane while it rolled on the tarmac for take-off.
@Whatever if he had run third party in 2016 it is not at all certain that he would have won, actually there is a good chance he would have lost. And of course everyone would KNOW it was HIS mistake that Trump is in office. No - Hillary had to lose on her own (quite an accomplishment) and he often gets blame for her loss anyway. Did 39 rallies for her (only Bill and chelsea did more for her), she did 12 for Obama in 2008. No good deed remains unpunished.
@Whatever I think he is determined / relentless / stubborn / has his eyes on the prize. It is a _movement_ that needs sustained efforts and ongoing support from voters = acitivists. A president (even with a supportive Congress / Senate) cannot fix everything in 4 or 8 years. This mess has been in the making for40 years. But he can start the course correction. It is a marathon not a sprint.

Unless you are in a place like a hospital actually being a racist then how would they even know anyway? Either way that's got absolutely nothing to do with Bernie or his plan so whats the point?
The whole Cuba question is a smear tactic. Bernie was just trying to be balanced in his assessment of Cuba. He's not in any way advocating a Cuba-like government. Just about the only things that Castro did right was improve literacy and health care for the poor in Cuba. Actually Castro was originally more of a Fascist than a communist. He owned the complete works of Mussolini and modeled his speeches after Hitler whereas Batista who he overthrew allowed communists in his government. Communism was not a driving force behind Castro's uprising in 1959. Castro did not declare himself a communist until 1961 when he stated publicly that he was a Marxist-Leninist. This statement was to strengthen Cuba's diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union and led to an increasingly strained relationship with the United States.

Was fortunate enough to attend Bernie’s rally in Las Vegas last weekend, the night before he dominated the Nevada caucus...spoke with a couple from Winnipeg...told me Bernie was SPOT ON about the health care system in Canada...HE’S GOT THIS.......BERNIE/NINA 2020
Agree but also all of my Canadian friends come to the US for major surgeries or specialized care because of the wait time and lack of quality in Canada. Actually had a family friend die of pancreatic cancer because it took over 3 years just to get a diagnosis and begin treatment in Canada also they misdiagnosed the aggressiveness of it. She eventually came to duke but by then it was too late. Hopefully that won’t be us in 20 years having to go somewhere else for cancer treatment or whatever new disease there is...there needs to be some sort of balance, not just all or nothing

Vicki Strickland actually not at all. They lived and worked at the gm or ford plant in Windsor. Probably their lack of money prevented them from seeing a better doctor in Canada because they said they were being sent to the “cheaper ones” because of their finances. Ended up going 30k in debt for a chance to live...all for nothing...also other people I’ve met in Canada say your ability to receive quality treatment on major surgeries is unfortunately a lot of times based on how connected you are and who you know...that’s why so many go elsewhere...

Swanzo You left out the best part though! No deductibles, premiums, and finally some access to people who were previously uninsured and unable to work. Plus we get a couple bucks back from the billionaires paying next to nothing in taxes. Such a crazy concept to unselfishly help out others for the benefit of all, I know. But you’ll get there! You just need to find some morals 👌🏼
@Swanzo Considering that healthcare is unaffordable to millions of people today, a slight increase in payroll and income tax to cover it would be a net gain rather than a loss. If you're worried about income tax, focus on getting higher wages, so that a higher income tax won't hurt so much. A 7.5% income tax increase should not break the bank as a matter of principle. Our system is fundamentally broken and unfair when that is the case, when so many of us are living paycheck to paycheck. Earnings really need to be brought back in line with costs of living. It's gotten way too out of wack.
Be careful for what you wish for you may just get it. He is not the first to Talk this talk or make these promises. There have been many that came before him who were much more accomplished by far. None of them delivered on their promises so what makes you so sure he will? He has been in politics for 40 years and has done nothing interesting, much less amazing. So suddenly he becomes president and now he is suited to be our savior? It's not in his nature to lead or he would already be a leader. Please don't make the mistake of thinking he is a leader because he is running for president. That makes him a politician. Leaders lead their entire lives. It's in their nature. Dogs bark and cats meow. You don't see Dogs meowing.
"I think it's good that Cuba is teaching its illiterates to read." "Okay but people were adversely affected by Fidel Castro so why would you say something nice about him?" "Wtf"

Mined Mind Not enough people seem to understand this. The establishment makes a huge point of and does a very good job at ensuring people are focused on non-issues that divide the majority of us, when realistically ALL of Bernie Sanders’ planned changes benefit those of us who aren’t multimillionaires. Based solely on the fact that he’s trying to remove lobbying and pay-to-play from politics, he should have all of our votes. But instead we hear stories about how he likes one thing Fidel Castro did and how he went to Russia on his honeymoon, complete non-issues which have nothing to do with whether or not he will be able to be an effective president.
@Bri - That's what I said. He's a self described democratic socialist. And it's worse than communism. India pursued a lot of policies of democratic socialism. They grew at the rate of 3%. China had communism and it grew at 6%. After they opened up their markets they grew at 9%.
They are ideologically against it. Other countries pay less per capita on healthcare, and EVERYONE gets healthcare. USA pays more and huge segments get nothing. Makes zero sense.
Bri - Fake middle eastern wars that only benefited the oil companies, arms dealers, private military, and politicians. God forbid we get a president who forces the big corporations to lighten the load on the regular people. God forbid Amazon is forced to pay their fair share in taxes like the teachers and bus drivers of America.
He doesn’t have to hit a home run on each debate. He’s got the lead and he just needs to perform well enough to keep the moment going. I do suspect Biden may squeak out a win in SC, but Super Tuesday is Bernie’s for the taking.
Why are journalists repeating talking points? Shouldn't they have their own research and ask specific questions? Repeating claims other tv pundits say is something any of us can do.
Elena B. Force the opposition to argue the issues like Bernie does. Half of the problem is that the establishment’s propaganda keeps the majority of us arguing about non-issues instead of focusing on the actual issues. Those of them who aren’t either bots or people hired to create dissent will have a hard time arguing why they think they should pay more in taxes than huge multinational corporations.
tonicmix I agree with you, but arguing with idiots is like wrestling in mud with pigs. You get dirty, and the pig likes it. I only honor reasonably worded opposition with the same. When I comment something neutral or logical, half the time than not, I get commenters telling me such things as I’m a liberal imbecile who needs to have an abortion(!?), that I’m an emotional, vapid little millenial, and a long list of other such gems. Look, if someone’s is going to post a ridiculous jab, they’ll get the same from me. Fair is fair 😁 I know Bernie would be disappointed in me, but it’s tough out here. I was never, ever a hater. I may not agree, but I respect that Trump is President, because the American people voted him in and I respect the decision of the majority. But when they come for me for my respectfully worded views, well - like Trump says - grab them by the _ _ _ _ _ because that’s exactly what they are. Grown men attacking young people will get no respect from me.
tonicmix and another thing - you’re giving undeserved credit to a majority of the opposition- that my responding with facts and logic would engender actual thought and reflection in them. If they haven’t figured out by now why we shouldn’t subsidize billionaires, I simply consider them a lost cause.
Perfect response from Bernie. I hope that will reassure some of his critics who are rightfully skeptical after hearing these ridiculous attack ads trying to smear him as a communist.
@@TV-ob1if If you think Bernie Sanders is a Communist, with all due respect, you have no idea what a communist even is. Google the term before you go around accusing people of being a communist, because you're making yourself look like a fool.

KEEP DONATING TO BERNIE, THE ESTABLISHMENT IS AFRAID
How many rubles is he paying you, comrade?
GROUND GAME is just as important.
We pay him, cause he's cool like that and we like breaking records. People might actually vote if someone had their interests at heart. Now we got a chance so gotta try at least.
@Major Thought Ahead How many shekels is he paying you?
5 dollars today
the audience was full of people who could afford 1750.00 to 3000.00 for a ticket. debates should be for the working class, not the elite.
They could use the money to help people in need you shouldn't even have to buy the tickets
Bloomberg bought all the tickets and paid the people.
You can watch it for free on KRplus. It's not like only the people there got to listen
In what those candidates and everyone spews is a democracy that’ll be ruined by Bernie is the same people happy about people spending 2k to attend what should be available to all. A democracy is for everyone not just those who could afford it
@@lastfreeapache7678 so he paid people to boo him?
Every question was a smear attempt. They really hate the working class.
Ron Gavalik you think Bernie loves the working class? Right from the fact he has passed almost nothing meaningful in Congress in 40 years to the fact he thinks everyone from Vermont has a 600,000 “summer camp” to the fact that he is promising all these free stuff with ZERO idea of how to pay for them.. oh don’t forget at least Castro had a good literacy plan which seems very relevant in comparison to how many dissidents he killed
Also when asked why he as a millionaire would not want to pay more taxes voluntarily he said why should I and he doesn’t do much charity either
That working class champion
Shaun Lee cherry picking
@@shaunlee8425 Tax the rich is the idea how to pay for it. To get that done is difficult, but its possible. Bernie builds a mass movement; his strategy is to use the inside of the system and a mass movement outside to pressure it. That is a good strategy in my opinion.
What is this thing about Castro again? Bernie condemned the bad parts about his government. You are just forcing this point, its laughable. Which Cuban government was better, which worked better for the people of Cuba - the Castro government or the government before, the Batista government? There is only one true answer here. Viva Fidel! Is what the people of Cuba said about the man whose revolution brought healthcare and education to every Cuban citizen. Was it the perfect political system? No. So what. Bernie is right, TRUTH IS TRUTH. The good parts of the Cuban government are not cancelled by the bad parts. And the bad parts are not cancelled by the good parts.
The part about Bernie should invidiually pay more taxes or do charity is laughable as well. When one rich person does that it means NOTHING. If you think one single millionaire should do that, then thats dellusional. It won't help anyone. You need higher taxes for the rich; FOR ALL millionaires and billionaires. Not for ONE, but for ALL of them. Otherwise its a stupid policy that won't change anything.
And yes, Bernie is the working class champion here, I am sorry but its true. Who else wants to strengthen unions in such a way as Bernie wants? Who else wants to give universal healthcare on top of that? I am sorry, but these are OBJECTIVELY the best policies for the working class.
@@shaunlee8425, I'm sorry you've swallowed every establishment talking point to smear Bernie. You can regurgitate those lies all over the web if you want, but I'm not sure how they help anyone. Thousands of others are spewing the same poison.
As an author myself and a socialist, I would be delighted if my books earned me a million dollars. Socialism is about democracy in the workplace, so we all have a say in our roles, our pay structures, our working lives. It's not the same as being a Jesuit priest who vows poverty.
From what I've learned about Bernie over the years is that he's extremely charitable. He has dedicated tons of his time and much of his earnings to improving the lives of his community. That's pretty awesome.
I really don't mind that he has a camp. A friend of mine has a fishing cabin. It's pretty nice as well.
I think you need to step away from the cable "news" programming. I did several years ago and I'm really much happier.
Lol they didn't learn their lesson after what happened with Trump. The mainstream media talked sh*t about Trump constantly, which only helped him. Same thing is happening with Bernie. The more the media throws obvious anti-Bernie propaganda, the more donations Bernie gets.
Embarrassing debate organized by CBS tonight, paid shills in the audience and lack of moderating by moderators. Pete very rudely spoke over Bernie every time and wasn't told to stop.

Imad Khouia that’s literally politics. If Bernie can’t handle someone talking over him or dominating a conversation, he’s not fit for the presidency
You think Trump's not going to talk over people? You've got to be able to handle anything. Bernie looked visibly upset and was even more crotchety than usual for the rest of the debate.
@@Chowder7116 i agree. But it's just funny that now the "votebluenotmatterwho" and "unity" attitude has all but gone out the window now that Bernie is the frontrunner.

*AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THAT BLOOMBERG HAD PAID PEOPLE WITHIN THE AUDIENCE TO MAKE HIM LOOK GOOD OR BOO OTHERS?*

Honestly not far fetched when you have hundreds of millions of dollars
The assault on Bernie was relentless tonight. So much conjecture and spin.
He is the easiest person to attack because he is crazy! For one he lies. Sweden, Denmark and Finland are not socialist countries. They are capitalist. They are also turning their healthcare more to private insurance away from government run like Bernie talks about. Bernie has no idea about math.
@@jaimemcdanieltravels Pretty ironic then that what you just typed is all misinformation 1) Bernie has never claimed those countries are socialist and he has never claimed that he wants the US to become socialist. He is a capitalist and wants the US to stay that way 2) Bernie is not advocating for "government-run" healthcare. That's a misnomer. Under his plan all the private companies will still exist. He IS advocating for medicare for all. Meaning you would get a medicare card that allows you to access medical care at almost any medical establishment and not pay out of pocket. The government would not run hospitals/dentists/etc. So, in conclusion, essentially nothing you typed is true. Do some actual research of your own and stop spouting things others have told you.
Conjecture and spin like Cubans were illiterate before the dictator stepped in?? Please. This guy is a nut
@@jaimemcdanieltravels All right, Lets pretend that for 1 second you are correct in saying those countries arent heavily influenced by socialism. Bernie still says he wants to be like those countries, Every plan he proposes has been done in those countries. Paid access to a higher education, applying greener energy solutions, Free and affordable health care for everyone. Those are the issues he is for those are the issues we face, those are the issues that every single first world country has already solved. When you say "turning their healthcare more to private insurance" Please provide a legislative source. I want to see the exact proposal and support for said proposal, Cause frankly. I dont believe you, and i cant find this at all in sweden, denmark or finland legislation. So either, its hidden away, or you are lying, or you have been misinformed.

Read his proposals, look at the numbers and do that math yourself. To me it seems to all work out rather well. Especially the Tax on wall street gambling. 50 cent tax for every 100 dollars traded on the stock market. Which will give us 2.4 trillion in tax revenue over the next 10 years...
wait...
2.4 trillion in extra tax revenue, what could that be used for hmm? Perhaps paying back all 2.2 trillion dollars of student loan debt. And if i look here, thats exactly what it goes to. A specific tax, that goes to a specific place. wild right?
@Kent Horvath Bernie beat Trump HARD in the 2016 polls and is doing so again now. He motivates a much larger voter base than Clinton did.

@Waynem LambertI do not understand why you and others are redbaiting, fearmongering, and straight up lying about Mr. Sanders. Bernie only repeated Obama's sentiment that for an otherwise impoverished nation, Cuba did well in making sure everyone is literate and has access to healthcare.
He is not a socialist, but a democratic socialist in the tradition of great American presidents like FDR and Eisenhower. What he believes in is the melding of free market economics with a comprehensive welfare state that decreases income inequality. This works very well in the Nordic countries like Denmark, Norway, etc.
What exactly does population size have to do with our ability to provide universal healthcare?
What I like about Bernie is that he doesn't take the easy way out, he sticks to what he believes. People say he shouldn't talk about Cuba because it offends 2 politicians in Florida. These people just don't get it. I'll be proud to have someone with his integrity as my President.

2:00 Bernie doesn't get baited, goes straight into interpreting truth.
@Whatever What could he have done? That's the failure of a two party system. He doing his best now, taking on the establishment & winning.
@Whatever the kind of leader that has been consistent for 40 years, that PLAYS THE LONG GAME. That knows it is not about the one lost (or even won !) race. Ran for higher office in the 1970s against the Vietnam war, and left economic policies and against regime change (with a small Independent left party) The candidates of that party were lucky when they got 4 % of the vote. Seemed to be a waste of time then.
In 1981 he won the race of mayor with 10 more votes (that was a stunning upset). He was 40 then, this was the first well paid job with benefits he had. he was not overly worried about being low income in his thriteis and late twenties , but I guess things change if you are middle age. Well he did a good job, so he could keep his post as mayor. There certainly was an incentive to now do things the "establishment" way: getting friendlier with the state party with large donors, ral estate developers, ...
He won the next race 2 years later. That was very competitive, but he won with a wide margin and very much increased turnout. Even though the aldermen (many were buddies of the ousted mayor which had been a big name in the VT Democratic party) had blocked him at the beginning.
He did not even have the veto power until the next election of the council members gave him a few more that were not hostile. So he could not even use the full 2 years as he would have liked to.
He got good grades by the voters in every office he held - he stubbornly insisted on finaning campaigns NOT like others did (chasing dollars). When he was in Congress aspiring lobbyists were told not to bother contacting him, it was a waste of time.
THAT kind of politician would be unfazed by the rigged race of 2016 and continue to keep the eyes on the prize. In spring 2015 Ed Schultz had a camera team in Burlington to cover live the announcement of Sanders that he would run for office. After that they planned to air a prerecorded short intervew. Ed was orderend 5 minutes before start to stand down.
Ed's theory: "observers" had informed the Clinton machine that a major network planned more than to mention his announcement in passing. It was a fine day, respectable crowd of 2,000 or 3,000.
The Clinton campaign phoned Phil Griffin boss of MSNBC that they did not want Sanders to get that kind of coverage.
Mind you: no one expected Sanders to have a chance (incl. Sanders, they had initially planned with 30 millions in small donations). But Clinton had an "early state trauma" after 2008, especially because of the sensational win of Obama in Iowa. And the Clinton campaign assumed Sanders _could_ do fairly well in Iowa and New Hampshire. - Nothing screams "strong inevitable candidate" like having to tip the scales against a complete outsider like Sanders right in the beginning.
Sanders KNEW from the start that they would play dirty, when Ed did NOT cover live after they had coordinated to go live at 5 pm. Sanders did not whine about it, he and his campaign never mentioned it. We only know that because Ed Schultz told the story approx 6 months before he died.
Sanders wanted to discuss issues like healthcare, student debt, regulation of banks - and he used the platform the primaries gave him.
Ed Schultz does not "know" that Griffin was told by the Clinton machine to stop coverage of the small outsider campaign. Ed's description was: they are joined at the hip. - He had a well founded suspicion. Griffin did not give him any reason, there was a heated exchange on the phone - the team was in Burlington after all. Ed Schultz was ordered to cover some nonsense and a press conference of the day before that was more relevant but had gotten plenty of coverage already. So obviously this was not the kind of news to justify aborting costly on the ground live reporting.
After the shock of the lost presidential race the DNC appointed the Independent (Sanders had returned to that status immediately after the convention) to be Outreach for the Democratic party. THAT suited him best (a position in the party hierarchy does not help you to leverage power when you are not an "insider"). The DNC salivated over his maillist, they wanted to get to his supporters - and likely thought they could use Sanders as figurehead.
He got better media coverage after the lost Nov. election than when he was a candidate.
He used that better access to airtime VERY well. Whatever the issue of an interview was - he always brought up HEALTHCARE as well. the hosts knew his shtick and resigned themselves to it. I wonder if they could have interviewed him on a recipe for potato salad and he still would have found away to bring up healthcare.
Excellent marketing ! the "broken record" strategy. Repeating a message over and over.
He toured the country with townhalls. Meanwhile HRC was in the woods, tending her bruised ego, and had meetings with her ghostwriters to get her book (Everybody's Fault But Mine) ready for sales.
Sanders and allies learned from the 2015 and 2016 campaign, this time they were not afraid the small donations would dry up, they dared to invest in staff and groundgame from the start. They do a lot of things differently. Incl. hiring a lot of staff out of communities. Who then leverage the MANY volunteers. They have an app that helps volunteers to activate the peole they have "recruited" to turn out (they get text reminders).
In NV it was important to fill in all 3 choices on the ranked choice ballot used for early voting or the ballot was not valid. Early voting was a new offer.
The state party had not communicted that very well and of course next time people will be more used to it. 3 % of ballots were invalid - but when all campaigns learned of that problem, but the Sanders campaign could reach many of their supporters and volunteers and tell them. Early voting took long there were weiting lines, so if a critical mass of voterd know the information spreads.
Sanders can build on name recognition so this time he has a chance with the black community, with Latinos.
In 2015 and early 2016 they built the plane while it rolled on the tarmac for take-off.
@Whatever if he had run third party in 2016 it is not at all certain that he would have won, actually there is a good chance he would have lost. And of course everyone would KNOW it was HIS mistake that Trump is in office. No - Hillary had to lose on her own (quite an accomplishment) and he often gets blame for her loss anyway. Did 39 rallies for her (only Bill and chelsea did more for her), she did 12 for Obama in 2008. No good deed remains unpunished.
@Whatever I think he is determined / relentless / stubborn / has his eyes on the prize. It is a _movement_ that needs sustained efforts and ongoing support from voters = acitivists. A president (even with a supportive Congress / Senate) cannot fix everything in 4 or 8 years. This mess has been in the making for40 years.
But he can start the course correction. It is a marathon not a sprint.

The whole Cuba question is a smear tactic. Bernie was just trying to be balanced in his assessment of Cuba. He's not in any way advocating a Cuba-like government. Just about the only things that Castro did right was improve literacy and health care for the poor in Cuba. Actually Castro was originally more of a Fascist than a communist. He owned the complete works of Mussolini and modeled his speeches after Hitler whereas Batista who he overthrew allowed communists in his government. Communism was not a driving force behind Castro's uprising in 1959. Castro did not declare himself a communist until 1961 when he stated publicly that he was a Marxist-Leninist. This statement was to strengthen Cuba's diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union and led to an increasingly strained relationship with the United States.
These talking heads are coming at Sanders with the same old stupid untrue remarks. Glad he can handle it easily!

Sorry you need that government cheese.
Agree but also all of my Canadian friends come to the US for major surgeries or specialized care because of the wait time and lack of quality in Canada. Actually had a family friend die of pancreatic cancer because it took over 3 years just to get a diagnosis and begin treatment in Canada also they misdiagnosed the aggressiveness of it. She eventually came to duke but by then it was too late. Hopefully that won’t be us in 20 years having to go somewhere else for cancer treatment or whatever new disease there is...there needs to be some sort of balance, not just all or nothing

Vicki Strickland actually not at all. They lived and worked at the gm or ford plant in Windsor. Probably their lack of money prevented them from seeing a better doctor in Canada because they said they were being sent to the “cheaper ones” because of their finances. Ended up going 30k in debt for a chance to live...all for nothing...also other people I’ve met in Canada say your ability to receive quality treatment on major surgeries is unfortunately a lot of times based on how connected you are and who you know...that’s why so many go elsewhere...
Bernie bro checking in. That Nelson Mandela quote sealed the night, and it was an ugly night on all fronts. Vote Bernie Sanders !!!!
Jacob Smith {Yang Gang checking in} It was a very good closing statement, but I believe that Mayor Pete’s closing was stronger. Bernie’s closing statement probably resonated with more people though.
I was happy for a good closer after a weak performance by his normal standards. I would have felt unprepared to walk into that circus, too. Too bad it was such a shitshow that everybody tuned out before the end. Shout out to the other engaged fools that stuck around for "and they all lived happily ever- but first commercials. -After. The End."
@@Vsnipes71 You mean platitude Pete?
feel that bern yet?
Swanzo You left out the best part though! No deductibles, premiums, and finally some access to people who were previously uninsured and unable to work. Plus we get a couple bucks back from the billionaires paying next to nothing in taxes. Such a crazy concept to unselfishly help out others for the benefit of all, I know. But you’ll get there! You just need to find some morals 👌🏼
@Swanzo Considering that healthcare is unaffordable to millions of people today, a slight increase in payroll and income tax to cover it would be a net gain rather than a loss. If you're worried about income tax, focus on getting higher wages, so that a higher income tax won't hurt so much. A 7.5% income tax increase should not break the bank as a matter of principle. Our system is fundamentally broken and unfair when that is the case, when so many of us are living paycheck to paycheck. Earnings really need to be brought back in line with costs of living. It's gotten way too out of wack.

Ana Jayleene Period!!!
Notice how he didn't answer that last question at all
Be careful for what you wish for you may just get it. He is not the first to Talk this talk or make these promises. There have been many that came before him who were much more accomplished by far. None of them delivered on their promises so what makes you so sure he will? He has been in politics for 40 years and has done nothing interesting, much less amazing. So suddenly he becomes president and now he is suited to be our savior? It's not in his nature to lead or he would already be a leader. Please don't make the mistake of thinking he is a leader because he is running for president. That makes him a politician. Leaders lead their entire lives. It's in their nature. Dogs bark and cats meow. You don't see Dogs meowing.
"I think it's good that Cuba is teaching its illiterates to read."
"Okay but people were adversely affected by Fidel Castro so why would you say something nice about him?"
"Wtf"
Whatever it’s called nuance
@Whatever Did he praise Castro or his education systems? If even a dictatorship is doing better with education than America, that's pretty embarrassing.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This whole Cuba talking point is just an attack on Bernie. It's failing btw because people can see through it.
Bernie condemned the bad parts about Fidel's government. You are just forcing this point, its laughable. Which Cuban government was better, which worked better for the people of Cuba - the Castro government or the government before, the Batista government? There is only one true answer here. Viva Fidel! Is what the people of Cuba said about the man whose revolution brought healthcare and education to every Cuban citizen. Was it the perfect political system? No. So what. Bernie is right, TRUTH IS TRUTH. The good parts of the Cuban government are not cancelled by the bad parts. And the bad parts are not cancelled by the good parts.
Libertarian Leninist Rants how about neither worked. Yea Franco and Lenin did good too, even Hitler before the war started with how Germany’s status was. What has to be weighed here should be asked and what’s the end.

The billionaires (trump and Bloomberg) will protect their constituents and are pathological liars with no meaningful connection to society.

This debate is unwatchable. No decorum, everyone on stage behaves like first graders competing to be on the school debate team. Personal attacks, talking over each other, and ignoring the timer rule. The moderators did not do good jobs at all asking questions, moderating the conversation, or controlling the flow of the debate. "I wrote the bill!" "No, I wrote the bill!" "My administration did this!" Enough already. We need to hear what you will do to fix the problem, not your resume.

I dont know jack about politics but Bernie seems like hes very smart and reasonable. He doesn't seem like a communist. What's all the hate for Bernie about? He might just get my vote
MRkriegs It's propaganda because he threatens the establishment.
He's self described democratic socialist. He had his honeymoon in USSR. He has socialist mindset. It's a fact.
Nik G wow dude honey moon in russia big whoop. Ig every republican president or american that goes to any foreign country for any reason is a communist then. This argument is so ridiculous beyond belief considering your party is actually the one that likes to call out the bs russia accusations. The Republicans should really take their own ideas to heart to more.
Mined Mind Not enough people seem to understand this. The establishment makes a huge point of and does a very good job at ensuring people are focused on non-issues that divide the majority of us, when realistically ALL of Bernie Sanders’ planned changes benefit those of us who aren’t multimillionaires.
Based solely on the fact that he’s trying to remove lobbying and pay-to-play from politics, he should have all of our votes. But instead we hear stories about how he likes one thing Fidel Castro did and how he went to Russia on his honeymoon, complete non-issues which have nothing to do with whether or not he will be able to be an effective president.
@Bri - That's what I said. He's a self described democratic socialist.
And it's worse than communism. India pursued a lot of policies of democratic socialism. They grew at the rate of 3%. China had communism and it grew at 6%. After they opened up their markets they grew at 9%.

God forbid we get a president who forces the big corporations to lighten the load on the regular people. God forbid Amazon is forced to pay their fair share in taxes like the teachers and bus drivers of America.

He doesn’t have to hit a home run on each debate. He’s got the lead and he just needs to perform well enough to keep the moment going.
I do suspect Biden may squeak out a win in SC, but Super Tuesday is Bernie’s for the taking.

Elena B. Force the opposition to argue the issues like Bernie does. Half of the problem is that the establishment’s propaganda keeps the majority of us arguing about non-issues instead of focusing on the actual issues.
Those of them who aren’t either bots or people hired to create dissent will have a hard time arguing why they think they should pay more in taxes than huge multinational corporations.
tonicmix
I agree with you, but arguing with idiots is like wrestling in mud with pigs. You get dirty, and the pig likes it.
I only honor reasonably worded opposition with the same.
When I comment something neutral or logical, half the time than not, I get commenters telling me such things as I’m a liberal imbecile who needs to have an abortion(!?), that I’m an emotional, vapid little millenial, and a long list of other such gems.
Look, if someone’s is going to post a ridiculous jab, they’ll get the same from me. Fair is fair 😁
I know Bernie would be disappointed in me, but it’s tough out here.
I was never, ever a hater. I may not agree, but I respect that Trump is President, because the American people voted him in and I respect the decision of the majority. But when they come for me for my respectfully worded views, well - like Trump says - grab them by the _ _ _ _ _ because that’s exactly what they are. Grown men attacking young people will get no respect from me.
tonicmix and another thing - you’re giving undeserved credit to a majority of the opposition- that my responding with facts and logic would engender actual thought and reflection in them. If they haven’t figured out by now why we shouldn’t subsidize billionaires, I simply consider them a lost cause.
