Tristan Seymour it is said that Bernie was frozen in time until he could fulfill his mission to clean up our corrupt government and give some power back to the people
Bernie used to he against illegal immigration and some legal immigration. He also seemed to be somewhat nationalist. Just watch his interview from Vox from just 5 years ago.
Trump is consistent. He talks to much doesn’t keep his mouth shut says things he shouldn’t on Twitter and generally makes good calls about the economy.
Trump is maintaining campaign promises. Can't be said for our previous Presidents. You see how easy this is? I'm not even a Trump supporter, I'm definitely a conservative or maybe even a Vermont conservative. Bernie doesn't realize his shoddy beliefs don't hold up outside of white Vermont.
Bernie is actually so supportive, he marched with MLK and when the LGBT community was still being held back, he fought for the rights, he truly does want human rights. As a citizen of the UK I have no opinion on the matter but I personally believe that he wants to change America for the better and give people basic human rights

In Republican Congress(1995-2007) he was known as “The Amendment King” for managing to convince Republicans and pass the most amendments. Also, many of those Republicans acknowledged that he was bringing bills to them and was letting them to take the credit, only so he can pass those bills.

Bernie is like a once in a lifetime good candidate, and we still ended up with two lousy people. One much lousier than the other (Trump). But dang, really unfortunate.
Sanders would have dominated Trump in the debate too LOL. He would have kept talking and just spit straight facts. As a Canadian who lives under lots of socialized policies that benefit our citizens, I still don't understand why Americans are so afraid of Bernie.
It’s ridiculous!! We’re the laughing stock of the world!! Bernie would’ve been the the life jacket to our drowning country and set us afloat to catch up to the rest of the world
Bernie Sanders is the most electable candidate. The other Democrats are missing the point, trying to convince moderate Republicans. We never do and never have. Excite your own base. Build new coalitions. Bring disaffected voters to the ballot box.

Edward Backman it seems like you need a more well rounded life that isn’t dictated by politics. Go outside and get some vitamin D. Call you friends/fam and get a life
SkyRock HOU That’s not how any of this works, but I guess our friend Ed means that Bernie brings the participation in the participatory democracy that we all strive for.
SkyRock HOU lol I don’t know how you are able to say he needs a better rounded life when all he said was basically “I didn’t use to care about the political process and now I do”. Do you have a magic orb that you use to peer into peoples lives? We NEED people to care about the political process. It’s how democracy works bro.
Well I mean... UA-cam comments aren’t necessarily an accurate sample of both sides, or even our national identity, lol. They could easily just be a more vocal minority, as opposed to an actual presence. I agree with Bernie, but seeing something like that isn’t always necessarily perfect evidence.
Something that wasn't mentioned in this video is Bernie's track record of getting non-voters to come out and vote. Democrats win when voter turnout is high. That's part of why Bernie has the best chance of winning the general election.
That's why he wants open borders and the abolition of ICE so the Democrats can get a new and reliable source of votes changing the political culture in the U.S forever. Because you know, these clowns are not getting votes anymore
@@SpaceDiver98 Open borders isn't the goal. The goal is to increase voter turnout. If we end all of the voter suppression policies that many states have enacted, our democracy will be much more democratic.
When did he get high vote turnout? He has pretty normal numbers as far as I'm concerned. Even in this election, primary turnouts were very normal and voter turnout didn't exactly beat Clinton in 2016.
The thing that irks me the most is when people say he’s too old. He’s sharp a a tack and is running all over the country. He campaigns at rallies he does interviews and protests. Who cares how old someone is. I’d argue it as a benefit. He’s been around seen and done a thing or two. And he’s not likely to bait and switch us! That alone is worth it.
His age number might say he's old, but look and listen to the guy and you could easily believe he was 10 or 20 years younger. Biden and Trump are pretty much just as old as him and they actually look and sound as old as they are.

Except he won't get it done. Warren is absolutely the hardest fighter, she fought the banks to get the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that she dreamed up started, and she won. You know what people told her? "Don't waste your time. You'll never get it done. The banks won't let it happen." You know what she heard? "Fight harder." And she did, and she got it done. Elizabeth Warren is the people's candidate. Bernie is the candidate who couldn't beat a historically bad candidate in 2016. Now he's facing a field of good ones. When did he every win any major victories? He needs to bow out and throw his support behind Warren before the risk is too great that his vision is not enacted.

The internet already made a case for Bernie many times over. Will it convince enough voters? There are people who'll go with Trump despite everything just because of "socialism" . Can you make a case to sell other candidates to Bernie base? Unlikely as well.

Old Bernie footage is adorable and shows his focus on the issues that actually affect the everday life of true Americans. Not the aristocracy (whether they're Republicans OR Democrats) but the firefighters or the small businesses owners. The affluent Democrats need to get with the program and realize radical change isn't a talking point it's a genuine goal he and his supporters intend to obtain.
@@atemporal9081 The limited compliments from 30 years ago are nothing compared to what Trump says about dictators *today*, but more importantly, not an issue people really care about.

@@jens8533 I don't think they're downplaying his importance, obviously there is a bigger picture that we can't see but he can. I'f he brings non-voters to the table, I guess in my opinion he's definitely of utmost importance at least in that factor, more often then not I have seen him pushed aside but he's making a difference incremental or not 🤚🏼
Bernie is winning because he's consistent from the start, Bernie has worked with and for the people of this nation to help create a better nation - as Mayor, as Representative, as Senator, and hopefully as President. He's a student of politics and government - as he's been about it since the early 1960s. He was actually active in the Civil Rights Movement. He's been the real deal from the beginning. He's not phony like Trump.
Bernie has never changed in his views and ideologies, he is obviously a people's person and will work for people and the environment. If he becomes president he'll be the best.
Being a pro2A lefty, I've noticed he has gone from being more gun-friendly to now being more in favor of restricting manufacture and sale, but you're mostly right, gun law is the only area where he's really changed his stance. And even now he's not the most anti-gun out of all Dem candidates, and he has more respect for the Fourth Amendment than Trump, so, yeah. Even though I disagree with his current gun control views, still votin for him. By far the best candidate.
Can you explain how the USA would replace 80,000GWh of nuclear energy with renewables in Michigan, Ohio, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York by 2022? Under Sanders GND he calls for the elimination of all nuclear seeking relicensing. Well guess what 9 plants are doing just that by 2022... Sure hope you have a good answer to that question above.
Some would say that's the problem, his views and ideology haven't changed over time. It still remains how well he would operate within the system he has so much disdain for. He still owns too many homes !
Socialism is really bad. I'm from Europe and the idea of socialism is just have a HUGE government, enormous taxes to support that, socialism almost always comes with bureaucracy. And the government can change laws so quick and add laws that are really unnecessary and makes the rule of law just a huge jungle. Micro managing everything which is really bad.

@@jijdom there is no such thing as a perfect government anywhere. Right now the US's government is failing their people, so clearly it isn't working - hence the wanting of change in government that Sanders' appeal has on the frustrated people. What doesn't make sense is that @sylamy 123 is saying that a socialist doesn't belong in the United States when there has been socialist services that have benefited the country for decades.
"Bernie speaks for people who are not necessarily into the democratic party." This is the difference, this is where I feel arguing he would not win doesn't make sense. People who didn't like dems did not vote for Hillary.
@arti It's called LOGIC .... Sanders can't do math ... He's talking about increasing government spending by 300%, he wants to spend $9Trillion a year on his FREE STUFF promises when the government only receives $4Trillion a year in funds from ALL sources. He is short by $5Trillion a year in funds. Even if Sanders doubled tax for ALL Americans and businesses AND disbanded the military completely he still wouldn't even get close to funding the additional $5Trillion he needs .... he's talking about forcefully taking ownership of 20% of ALL business in America and redirecting 70% of Americas TOTAL GDP to government spending ... this is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE ... and would bankrupt America ... our children and grand children would be paying for Sanders debt long after he was dead.
@@pablorages1241 Mr. Rages seems to have forgotten that the president must make things happen though Congress. Even if Bernie wins the presidency, the spending plan would still have to be approved regardless whose administration was in charge. No president has ever passed 100% of what they promised to do. Think rationally here.
I love how this video makes Bernie look so good and yet it leaves out so much more of the good things about him, like the specifics of his policy, his civil rights activism.
"Bernie Sanders would have beaten Donald Trump, the polls show he would have walked away with it...But Hillary Clinton got the nomination" -Mike Bloomberg
I do not expect Sanders to deliver on every one of his promises, but I do believe his sincerity and passion is genuine and that he will fight for every one of them, even if they ultimately fail. That, I think, is the problem with Obama and the doctrine of bipartisanship. When your starting position is one of compromise, then you've effectively agreed to give up ground ahead of time, giving your opponents a window to demand even more concessions. There is a big difference between being uncompromising and negotiating from a position of strong conviction. Sanders understands this whereas past Democratic administration's haven't.
Obama found himself in a position where moderate Democrats wanted to water things down, while Republicans felt zero blowback for simply refusing to do their job, refusing to even give things a vote, unless there were deep compromises and benefits to their powerbase. If he complained it was labeled as him being a socialist from Kenya who refused to meet them in the middle. I really hope that Bernie is able to pressure people like Mitch McConnell in a way that they feel, or else his presidency is going to be an opportunity mired in obstruction. I feel like he would be comfortable loudly naming and shaming these people to avoid this, but, we'll see.
@@dwightk.schrute6743 no, we need to play smart. They are going to attempt to gut everything, so you need to start from a high place in order to negotiate down to something that is still good for us. Starting off compromising means you've given up ground before you've even started really negotiating.
I have to say this, when he tried to ran for president I voted, yang is out, so now I’m voting Bernie, all I have to say is this sanders is the best candidate for better universal health care reforms, and more reforms for cost of living etc. more people who needs it are access to social help, hospitals funding etc
Armani Nguon Can’t wait for the 47% middle class taxes. Gonna be a real blast! Also Bernies gonna raise the federal minimum wage by 75%, awesome I can pretend like I have more money while every price increases by 75%. He’ll yea.
He can’t pay for it. Even he admits he doesn’t know the costs. What happens when the rich aren’t rich anymore? You won’t have a job. Even if he took all the money from the billionaires he won’t be able to pay for his programs for one year.
I was registered as green party before Bernie, last election, bernie got me to register to no party and voted for him in the primaries. First presidential Democrat I voted for. I will vote for him in this upcoming primary and if he wins the nomination, then I will vote for him for president.
The best dem candidate is Bernie. He's smart and he is empathetic. He wants a better life for his citizens. Health and education. You can do a lot with that thing. He is actually what politicians pretend to be.
Better education as in not letting parents decide to private/homeschool thier kids Or paying for a dance or art degree and treating it like it was equal to a engineering degree?
healthcare for all is a nice idea. It would be great if we all had healthcare, but it would wreck are econemy (that not even a universal income tax on the rich will pay even a 1/10 of the cost). So they will increase taxes for the middle class. What do you think will happen to the doctors? People will stop going to medical school, because it will no longer pay the same as it would with private healthcare.
@@TwiStedTentom which nations just to clarify? What I am saying is that people go to med school because that is the highest paying non bussness owning job. If government takes over they pay doctors less. If they pay doctors less there's less interest in becoming a doctor. Therefore if the government takes over there is less interest in becoming a docor.

Going right into the teeth of the anti-Bernie arguments. Well done Vox!
Exactly! It's these kinds of arguments that are not made often enough. Bernie's coalition is much broader than that of any centrist. The combination of non-voters, single-issue voters, and 'Blue No Matter Who' voters that Bernie has/will pull together is much greater than the number of centrist Republicans and anti-Trump voters that a Democratic centrist would pull in.
Except he can't win the primaries. He lost against a historically bad candidate in 2016. What makes you think he can win against a field of good ones in 2020? I love Bernie, but it's time to pass on the torch. Vote Warren if you want to see Bernie's ideas enacted!
Found it very interesting the vote they chose to zoom in on 3:00. The vote that violated the Iran deal which has gotten us more provocative with them than ever. Bernie Sanders voted against that bill. That was important.
KingKazma _ he has a record of partisan voting for many years. This isn’t a good thing as change must always come with compromise. Anyone who believes this man will start a revolution is incorrect, he will be a four year lame duck if elected
Sara3346 it seems that way because he is convinced the country is in turmoil right now. When in reality that’s a vision he’s trying to sell because it’s the only way he will get elected. Bernie is accurate on his diagnosis of our expensive medical system and maybe a few other things but Americans today don’t want a president that will get nothing done because “it’s all so corrupt unfair.” we have set records for low unemployment , rates for applications to disability assistance are going down, crime rates are all time low. He makes it seem as if a socialist revolution is an easy switch . Please explain your status quo I am interested
@@ns7353 You can regurgitate out of context statistics all day, real wages haven't haven't risen since the 1970s, some 40% of Americans don't have 400 dollars in their bank account, about half of that cannot pay all their bills. The Trump administration has also lowered the standard of what is considered poverty. You say that people don't want a President who will get nothing done - ut what exactly has Trump done? What policies has he implemented that bettered the working class? The House has repeatedly passed bipartisan bills that sit on McConnels desk. Its not a matter of getting nothing done, its a matter of Republicans obstructing every chance they get. You're either ignorant of the realities of politics or attempting to muddle the discussion even further.
Ethan Rosenberger so what will Bernie do, put more bills on the desk of McConnell that don’t pass you just proved my point saying he won’t effect a change! His tax cut helped families, average family saw the money in their bank account. Search up article by NY Times “face it you probably got a tax cut” you continue to deny the reality of what his administration has only believe in your socialist utopia which will never happen. I choose to live in the dystopian reality. Like I said I think Bernie is right about health care needing to change but without killing future investments which actually advance medicine. You Bernie supporters love to think abstractly
Notice it's only a head to head comparison that doesn't include multiple parties, which was the exact same mistake analysts made when looking at Hillary's numbers in 2016 too
Lora Z. I agree. Even the polls are showing he’s the strongest candidate. More importantly, he has the strongest track record for working for ...all of us!
This is why B. Sander's idea of additionally taxing the richest 1% billionaires of the population and investing that into free healthcare, education and infrastructure, as well as A. Yang's idea of giving every american citizen a UBI of $1000 a month payed by taxing trillion dollar tech companies, in addition with B. Obama's idea of cutting military budget in half to pay off national debt with it, is so crucial. Add that with decriminalising drugs, taking climate change seriously, prioritizing philosophy and science in school, taxing churches, more secularism, reducing pharmaceutical cost, and reforming the executive branch through longer training time and ethical profiling tests, and you got yourself a more just, stable, humane, progressed, prosperous and less ridiculous looking America. Currently the rest of the civilized world is just laughing at the USA.
This is a great synopsis of what America needs. The political spectrum here is so warped that people think Bernie is a radical when he’s just more left of center. I sincerely hope that ideas like his pass into law.
Didnt mention anything about expanding the electorate or the fact that his “radical” agenda from 2016 has now become the most popular platform in the nation.
@chris whooley polling shows Medicare for all having majority support amongst republicans as well (52%). Independents and Republicans also favor getting money out of politics. When you ask people their position on the actual issues rather than a label, the policies Sanders is promoting are extremely popular.
The reason why it has become a popular platform is due to the fact that things are going well in America. Unemployment is at an all time low and the economy is doing magnificent. When there's nothing left to fix the Democrats have nothing left to do but promise free stuff. It's not a revolutionary idea, all they do is point to things like the upper class, tell you why you should be mad, and then present you with a list of demands and promises that they won't keep. And it's a popular platform that none of them agree on. Warren doesn't agree with Sanders, Sanders doesn't agree with Bloomberg. None of them agree. I agree that it is now the popular thing to do at this point, but it doesn't make it effective.
@Joe Mama Seeing as the initial comment was about Bernie's actions in the 1960s. Given this, Pablo's response has relative coherence suggesting Bernie Sanders has not changed his view point since that time.
Stick Emoji trump give me low taxes and high stocks Bernie gives me higher taxes, and government ran everything. Trump does not need to say anything....clever who to vote for. But but Cuba had good schools lol
Chris poole | Trump gives you high stocks? The Dow just went the lowest it has since 2008. Also, the lowered taxes only apply to the rich, and the poor have to pay more to make up for that. Also, the US already follows market socialism. Market socialism is basically a combination of capitalism and socialism where the framework of capitalism is still there, but public goods are offered by the government, such as roads, parks, libraries, policing and a bunch of other stuff. Bernie simply advocates for also offering healthcare and a few other things.
He is courageous, consistent over decades, logical, progressive, honest, yet America gets Trump and Biden... that's the sad truth about this world! We get what we deserve.
but actually, remember when we thought Obama was able to give people hope? That was incredible work by Obama, don't get me wrong but what Bernie has done to give people hope is incredible and so much more
I would add that there is a fourth Sanders vote: The one that prioritises his constituants. In the case of the crime bill, he was vehemently opposed to it, but it had an important provision to protect women from abusive partners. Since the rate of murder amongst partners is so high in Vermont, he did what he had to do and voted ay to serve his constituants.
okay so what about the gun bills he voted against because he knew he couldnt be re-elected in a gun friendly state like vermont? how is that voting to protect women?

It’s hard to not like Bernie he’s been consistent for 40 years ... I was following ever since he attack Alan Greenspan during a hearing for the housing crisis that was about to happen in 2006
Dumisa Nzama Bernie Sanders has been supportive of every socialist regime. Ain't that pretty consistent? That does not make it good. And Bernie hasn't been that consistent either. Five years ago he was against open borders, now he is for them.
He had a full head of white in 1988, when he looked like a normal teenager in ~1965. He aged so quick, probably due to the stress. Man has been 80 for 40 years.
Matthew Yglesias has really changed his tone towards Bernie this election cycle. I recall him and Vox being aggressively against Bernie in 2016. Good to see them finally come around
Americans? As if the entire world isn't in danger right now. We have more work to do than that, and it will be individual work. I speak to people about this literally every day, and almost none of you are willing to make any changes in order to survive. It's disheartening. Makes me want to crawl in a hole and wait like the rest of you some days, but I won't.
Miss G You know, because only Americans are allowed to vote in the presidential election. Not because he thought, Bernie Sanders is going to solve the climate crisis all alone.
Miss G You sound very self righteous which gets us nowhere. Yes, people should make changes in their daily lives but that ignores the vast pollution emitted by the business sectors of the country. Not to mention introducing legislation and rebates that encourage these lifestyle changes has a greater impact on individuals and their ability to make a lower impact on the climate. All what I said ignores things like grants for green businesses and massive, publicly funded projects designed to reduce pollution. It’s almost like the world’s most powerful nation getting behind solving the climate crisis on a national level instead of doing nothing (worse than nothing) would have a profound effect or something...

@@Zeftilldeath8878 should have specified, I have leaned more Republican in the past from an economic stand point but I'm pretty confident that's changing and Bernie has been a big part of it. I really believe in his cause and think he can do alot of good for this country, that and being consistent in his beliefs also gives me hope. It's more that I don't trust the government at all to put the will of the people first, but I do trust Bernie. So that's how myself and my other friends see in him and why we voted for him.
The Goal of Socialism is Communism. Dems have already lost the election. thank god. Hope 2024 also goes Republican. Tired of the Hypocrisy by Liberals.

@Nyarlathotep classic bernie or buster. What a bad stance to hold. Every single one of the democratic candidates is better than another 4 years of Trump. Why wouldn't you try to get rid of him?
Gian-Marco Moder Bloomberg bought his way into the news by spamming ads at EVERYONE, and he lacks federal experience, shown by the fact that he keeps getting eviscerated at debates. He’s a Republican painted blue, and not even a good one at that.
That just makes him more dangerous. Trump can at at least be bought off. But you can't buy Bernie Sanders. And when people start dying under Sanders, he won't stop.
Having watched this, there is one thing that is clear: If we want to progress as a country, Bernie needs to stay in the Senate. He's too important to lose him from the senate
Hillary won the Democratic nomination because people thought Bernie couldn't beat Trump? Bernie isn't saying anything now that he wasn't saying then, so what makes his chance to beat Trump any less greater than before? In my opinion, Trump is a lot easier for Bernie to beat than he was before.
Trick Q dunno what that first question is supposed to mean, I made no mention of Hillary. The fact of the matter is Trump’s approval rating is higher than it was when he was elected. He’s most likely going to get even more votes than he did in 2016. Hillary couldn’t beat Trump even with the support of the Dem party, so how could Bernie do it when the party hates him? Remember how the party stole the nomination from him to give it to Hillary? They’re gonna try to do the same thing with Bloomberg.

He should come back into the race. More and more people are realizing how corrupt our government, medical systems and economy are (on both sides) now more then ever. The virus is unwinding and revealing our countries flaws. It’s time to find a better approach. Create a new progressive party, register under independent, do whatever it takes. Our country needs him.
Bernie has the most knowledge of what hes doing on how to run a country, he is by far more on the ball then the rest, and is very sharp. he will get my vote in November 2020.
he's clueless and he's senile .... he's trying to buy votes by offering people lots of free stuff ... but he has NO IDEA how to pay for it ... he says he won't increase taxes but he's given no explanation of how he is going to pay for a 300% increase in government spending
If Bernie Sander makes socialist policies, The united states economy is doomed. Why is it doomed? Because since everyone is getting paid the same, we're gonna have some lazy bums thinking "oh, i don't have to work, i can get paid anyways without working!". No work = no taxes being paid, no taxes being paid = no money to the government, no money to the government. Socialism has no place in America.
@@thebigsavageme2547 UBI has been tested and failed ... for exactly that reason ... people understandably decide to do less work hours when they don't have too
He's been at it for *so long.* It's genuinely amazing that near the end of his career he sees the ideas he solely fought for in the Senate for decades finally become embraced by a great coalition of Americans. This coalition is what Democratic Socialism is meant to create. American democracy as it stands should in theory always favor the majority, and Bernie is going to put that theory into practice.This is in large part how you create the foundations for the fantastic quality of life statistics in places like Scandinavia, the people there (and to a degree in many other parts of the world) enjoy a kind of freedom that we average Americans could only dream of in our current state. America will finally make good on it's promise of liberty, and hopefully we will one day become a source of peace and reason in the world, rather than war and ignorance.
Bernie Sanders stands for political revolution, while Donald Trump stands for political disintegration. Bernie is the perfect answer/response to Trump. Bernie, 2020.
@tito mateo Same with capitalism. A system itself can never be perfect and mysteriously provide solutions to all the problems, so us humans have to work for improvement (and e.g. pass laws). But if the people in power can fill their own pockets and do what they want, without feeling the negative consequences their actions have to other people , the system DOES fail.
He's a social Democrat, but calls himself a democratic socialist. If anything, even if he isn't actually a socialist, he made the idea more mainstream than it has been since Adlai Stevenson

Bernie is consistent. That can’t be said about many politicians.
Cant be said ANY of the other politicians running for President
@Alva In 2014 or 2015, he said open borders is a koch brothers conspiracy. He is now arguing for defacto open borders.
Bernie used to he against illegal immigration and some legal immigration. He also seemed to be somewhat nationalist. Just watch his interview from Vox from just 5 years ago.
Trump is consistent.
He talks to much doesn’t keep his mouth shut says things he shouldn’t on Twitter and generally makes good calls about the economy.
Trump is maintaining campaign promises. Can't be said for our previous Presidents. You see how easy this is? I'm not even a Trump supporter, I'm definitely a conservative or maybe even a Vermont conservative. Bernie doesn't realize his shoddy beliefs don't hold up outside of white Vermont.

Something that wasn't mentioned in this video is Bernie's track record of getting non-voters to come out and vote. Democrats win when voter turnout is high. That's part of why Bernie has the best chance of winning the general election.
Thanks Oscar. You are usually right about these kinds of things. We are working to make sure you are right this time!
That's why he wants open borders and the abolition of ICE so the Democrats can get a new and reliable source of votes changing the political culture in the U.S forever.

@@SpaceDiver98 Open borders isn't the goal. The goal is to increase voter turnout. If we end all of the voter suppression policies that many states have enacted, our democracy will be much more democratic.
Oscar Chacon I think they were wrong in saying libertarians would vote for him however. Bernie is the exact opposite of what the libertarians believe.
When did he get high vote turnout? He has pretty normal numbers as far as I'm concerned. Even in this election, primary turnouts were very normal and voter turnout didn't exactly beat Clinton in 2016.
The thing that irks me the most is when people say he’s too old. He’s sharp a a tack and is running all over the country. He campaigns at rallies he does interviews and protests. Who cares how old someone is. I’d argue it as a benefit. He’s been around seen and done a thing or two. And he’s not likely to bait and switch us! That alone is worth it.

Except he won't get it done. Warren is absolutely the hardest fighter, she fought the banks to get the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that she dreamed up started, and she won. You know what people told her? "Don't waste your time. You'll never get it done. The banks won't let it happen." You know what she heard? "Fight harder." And she did, and she got it done. Elizabeth Warren is the people's candidate. Bernie is the candidate who couldn't beat a historically bad candidate in 2016. Now he's facing a field of good ones. When did he every win any major victories? He needs to bow out and throw his support behind Warren before the risk is too great that his vision is not enacted.
Remember Vox, 90+ million people didn't vote in 2016, he doesn't have to take 3rd party votes, just get more people onto his side to come to ballot box.

@arti It's called LOGIC .... Sanders can't do math ... He's talking about increasing government spending by 300%, he wants to spend $9Trillion a year on his FREE STUFF promises when the government only receives $4Trillion a year in funds from ALL sources. He is short by $5Trillion a year in funds. Even if Sanders doubled tax for ALL Americans and businesses AND disbanded the military completely he still wouldn't even get close to funding the additional $5Trillion he needs .... he's talking about forcefully taking ownership of 20% of ALL business in America and redirecting 70% of Americas TOTAL GDP to government spending ... this is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE ... and would bankrupt America ... our children and grand children would be paying for Sanders debt long after he was dead.

Smiley that’s not how you win. Educate yourself
I do not expect Sanders to deliver on every one of his promises, but I do believe his sincerity and passion is genuine and that he will fight for every one of them, even if they ultimately fail. That, I think, is the problem with Obama and the doctrine of bipartisanship. When your starting position is one of compromise, then you've effectively agreed to give up ground ahead of time, giving your opponents a window to demand even more concessions. There is a big difference between being uncompromising and negotiating from a position of strong conviction. Sanders understands this whereas past Democratic administration's haven't.
So it's your way or the highway? No room for dissenting opinions or solutions that benefit all?
Obama found himself in a position where moderate Democrats wanted to water things down, while Republicans felt zero blowback for simply refusing to do their job, refusing to even give things a vote, unless there were deep compromises and benefits to their powerbase. If he complained it was labeled as him being a socialist from Kenya who refused to meet them in the middle. I really hope that Bernie is able to pressure people like Mitch McConnell in a way that they feel, or else his presidency is going to be an opportunity mired in obstruction. I feel like he would be comfortable loudly naming and shaming these people to avoid this, but, we'll see.
@@dwightk.schrute6743 no, we need to play smart. They are going to attempt to gut everything, so you need to start from a high place in order to negotiate down to something that is still good for us.

I have to say this, when he tried to ran for president I voted, yang is out, so now I’m voting Bernie, all I have to say is this sanders is the best candidate for better universal health care reforms, and more reforms for cost of living etc. more people who needs it are access to social help, hospitals funding etc

The best dem candidate is Bernie. He's smart and he is empathetic. He wants a better life for his citizens. Health and education. You can do a lot with that thing. He is actually what politicians pretend to be.
Better education as in not letting parents decide to private/homeschool thier kids Or paying for a dance or art degree and treating it like it was equal to a engineering degree?
healthcare for all is a nice idea. It would be great if we all had healthcare, but it would wreck are econemy (that not even a universal income tax on the rich will pay even a 1/10 of the cost). So they will increase taxes for the middle class. What do you think will happen to the doctors? People will stop going to medical school, because it will no longer pay the same as it would with private healthcare.

You can regurgitate out of context statistics all day, real wages haven't haven't risen since the 1970s, some 40% of Americans don't have 400 dollars in their bank account, about half of that cannot pay all their bills. The Trump administration has also lowered the standard of what is considered poverty.
You say that people don't want a President who will get nothing done - ut what exactly has Trump done? What policies has he implemented that bettered the working class? The House has repeatedly passed bipartisan bills that sit on McConnels desk. Its not a matter of getting nothing done, its a matter of Republicans obstructing every chance they get. You're either ignorant of the realities of politics or attempting to muddle the discussion even further.
Ethan Rosenberger so what will Bernie do, put more bills on the desk of McConnell that don’t pass you just proved my point saying he won’t effect a change! His tax cut helped families, average family saw the money in their bank account. Search up article by NY Times “face it you probably got a tax cut” you continue to deny the reality of what his administration has only believe in your socialist utopia which will never happen.

This is why B. Sander's idea of additionally taxing the richest 1% billionaires of the population and investing that into free healthcare, education and infrastructure, as well as A. Yang's idea of giving every american citizen a UBI of $1000 a month payed by taxing trillion dollar tech companies, in addition with B. Obama's idea of cutting military budget in half to pay off national debt with it, is so crucial. Add that with decriminalising drugs, taking climate change seriously, prioritizing philosophy and science in school, taxing churches, more secularism, reducing pharmaceutical cost, and reforming the executive branch through longer training time and ethical profiling tests, and you got yourself a more just, stable, humane, progressed, prosperous and less ridiculous looking America. Currently the rest of the civilized world is just laughing at the USA.
In other words, you'd get America to arrive in the 21st century.

@chris whooley polling shows Medicare for all having majority support amongst republicans as well (52%). Independents and Republicans also favor getting money out of politics.
When you ask people their position on the actual issues rather than a label, the policies Sanders is promoting are extremely popular.
The reason why it has become a popular platform is due to the fact that things are going well in America. Unemployment is at an all time low and the economy is doing magnificent. When there's nothing left to fix the Democrats have nothing left to do but promise free stuff. It's not a revolutionary idea, all they do is point to things like the upper class, tell you why you should be mad, and then present you with a list of demands and promises that they won't keep. And it's a popular platform that none of them agree on. Warren doesn't agree with Sanders, Sanders doesn't agree with Bloomberg. None of them agree. I agree that it is now the popular thing to do at this point, but it doesn't make it effective.

Also, the US already follows market socialism. Market socialism is basically a combination of capitalism and socialism where the framework of capitalism is still there, but public goods are offered by the government, such as roads, parks, libraries, policing and a bunch of other stuff. Bernie simply advocates for also offering healthcare and a few other things.

@@eruno_ And how so if I may ask?
Gian-Marco Moder Bloomberg bought his way into the news by spamming ads at EVERYONE, and he lacks federal experience, shown by the fact that he keeps getting eviscerated at debates. He’s a Republican painted blue, and not even a good one at that.
Bernie is a once in a lifetime candidate.
I certainly hope so!
yea the coming of communism in the 21st century
Just like Vladimir Lenin. 👋😯
His message is so true and on point. America and the world needs Sanders as president, and his movement calling the shots!
Let's go Bernie2020!
NorwegianDean not better than trump
NorwegianDean.
Yup :) Enough of the liars and cheaters. Bernie is for ...all of us!
rayzur9. Nice insult. Do you insult people often? Well nevertheless, he cares about schmucks like you too :)
Just once I'd love for Bernie to mention how Medicare for all went in Vermont in 2011. Just 1 time please Bernie.
@ I'm sorry he couldn't afford a small loan of a million dollars from his daddy.

Bernie's the only candidate that's real, always has been.
Trump as well, doesn't mean that's gonna make him a good president.
That just makes him more dangerous. Trump can at at least be bought off. But you can't buy Bernie Sanders. And when people start dying under Sanders, he won't stop.
Real loser! Always has been!
@@bsmith9614 the words of a person lacking intelligence
Bernie is the only politician I have ever been excited to vote for.
"NO I WON'T YIELD!" Love ya B.
Nut in me daddy Bernie!!!
Venezuela is the latest case study in socialism, Bernie has praised the Soviet Union and Cuba.........essentially collapsed economies......
“ I relate to your childish outrage” is what you mean to say
Real hero of common people. God bless bernie.
@@rgsxyz1105 Could you please explain which specific policies from Venezuela that Bernie is going to implement?
Having watched this, there is one thing that is clear: If we want to progress as a country, Bernie needs to stay in the Senate. He's too important to lose him from the senate
Anyone else feel really weird watching this video?
It's....it's almost like there's hope again.
don't get too excited
Bernie won the last 3 states... Why wouldn't we be hopeful.. Get out there and volunteer.
wiidiwii Bernie can definitely win the Democratic nomination, don’t get me wrong, I just don’t think he can beat Trump.
Hillary won the Democratic nomination because people thought Bernie couldn't beat Trump? Bernie isn't saying anything now that he wasn't saying then, so what makes his chance to beat Trump any less greater than before? In my opinion, Trump is a lot easier for Bernie to beat than he was before.
Trick Q dunno what that first question is supposed to mean, I made no mention of Hillary. The fact of the matter is Trump’s approval rating is higher than it was when he was elected. He’s most likely going to get even more votes than he did in 2016. Hillary couldn’t beat Trump even with the support of the Dem party, so how could Bernie do it when the party hates him? Remember how the party stole the nomination from him to give it to Hillary? They’re gonna try to do the same thing with Bloomberg.
I just voted in the Texas early election. I can't wait for the results.
Do us proud Texas! Get the right person in!!
@@missnperfection9830 Bernie is winning in the polls in Texas and has a groundswell of liberal support which are generally not captured by polls (Young voters and minorities). It would not surprise me AT ALL if Sanders wins in Texas, and it's not impossible for him to win comfortably.
@@josephdavis3472 gee are you sure?!? 🤦♀️🙄
Joseph Davis The race between Cruz and O’Rourke was close
@@badwolf9956 Which if anything shows to not underestimate Sanders in Texas. Unlike Orourke, Sanders is starting with serious name recognition, and most young voters don't attend local or state elections.
Met his financial advisor Stephanie Kelton, brilliant young economist and possibly one of the best right now.
Stephanie Kelton is brilliant!

If you vote for him u can acually bring back to the top u still have 5 months left before 2 presidents are left hurry please vote for Sanders he the only candidate that has some sense in him at less

@Ash Win I think Modi is far right but Bernie is not.
trump will and should win. and last its Americans who will decide. But Bernie looks to be a liberal left
Why do I vote for Bernie
His resume! He giving it all for the people since day 0 . Who has a better record?
Aye how ready are you for RTJ4 tho, and Killer Mike loves Bernie too
@@JeMangeMonChien what's that?
he cant win, and never will.
Lol even when he was sponsored from the NRA on his first campaign
@@v8Buster87 sure XD
please for the sake of the whole world elect this man this is a one in a life opportunity !!
He should come back into the race. More and more people are realizing how corrupt our government, medical systems and economy are (on both sides) now more then ever. The virus is unwinding and revealing our countries flaws. It’s time to find a better approach. Create a new progressive party, register under independent, do whatever it takes. Our country needs him.
Bernie has the most knowledge of what hes doing on how to run a country, he is by far more on the ball then the rest, and is very sharp. he will get my vote in November 2020.
he's clueless and he's senile .... he's trying to buy votes by offering people lots of free stuff ... but he has NO IDEA how to pay for it ... he says he won't increase taxes but he's given no explanation of how he is going to pay for a 300% increase in government spending
If Bernie Sander makes socialist policies, The united states economy is doomed. Why is it doomed? Because since everyone is getting paid the same, we're gonna have some lazy bums thinking "oh, i don't have to work, i can get paid anyways without working!". No work = no taxes being paid, no taxes being paid = no money to the government, no money to the government. Socialism has no place in America.
@@thebigsavageme2547 UBI has been tested and failed ... for exactly that reason ... people understandably decide to do less work hours when they don't have too
Land0n Kerkstra
That’s... not how socialism works (same wage for everyone).
That’s... also not what Sanders is trying to do.
@@pablorages1241 I think he cut military spending
He's been at it for *so long.* It's genuinely amazing that near the end of his career he sees the ideas he solely fought for in the Senate for decades finally become embraced by a great coalition of Americans. This coalition is what Democratic Socialism is meant to create. American democracy as it stands should in theory always favor the majority, and Bernie is going to put that theory into practice.This is in large part how you create the foundations for the fantastic quality of life statistics in places like Scandinavia, the people there (and to a degree in many other parts of the world) enjoy a kind of freedom that we average Americans could only dream of in our current state.
America will finally make good on it's promise of liberty, and hopefully we will one day become a source of peace and reason in the world, rather than war and ignorance.
Well said
@chris whisenhunt well said
Well said. 1/17/22
Bernie Sanders stands for political revolution, while Donald Trump stands for political disintegration. Bernie is the perfect answer/response to Trump. Bernie, 2020.
@tito mateo Pure socialism does not work, democratic socialism does.
@tito mateo Same with capitalism. A system itself can never be perfect and mysteriously provide solutions to all the problems, so us humans have to work for improvement (and e.g. pass laws). But if the people in power can fill their own pockets and do what they want, without feeling the negative consequences their actions have to other people , the system DOES fail.
What exactly is the difference between 'political revolution' and political disintegration? Ever been in a revolution? Thought not.
@@flawlessduck5244 Really? Where has so-called 'democratic socialism' worked? The term 'democratic socialsm' is in fact the perfect oxymoron.
@@tonysa2337 Yeah, wake up Tony.
Please don't call him socialist. Call him social democrat.
He's a social Democrat, but calls himself a democratic socialist. If anything, even if he isn't actually a socialist, he made the idea more mainstream than it has been since Adlai Stevenson
Social democracy is a type of socialism
