I worry very much about kids growing up in a society where they think: I'm not going to talk about this issue, read this book or explore this idea because someone may think I'm a terrorist. That's not the kind of free society I want for our children.
Bernie Sanders
I think we are making progress, but we have long way to go. People also have got to understand the agenda that we are fighting for. This is a senator who has taken on every powerful special interest, whether it's Wall Street, whether it's drug companies who are ripping off the American people, the military industrial complex.
Bernie Sanders
The greed of the billionaire class has got to end and we are going to end it for them.
Bernie Sanders
Do we substantially increase military spending and prepare for endless war in the middle-east, or do we make college affordable for all Americans, regardless of income. My answer: I will soon be introducing legislation that will make public colleges and universities tuition free.
Bernie Sanders
If we do not get our act together and transform our energy system away from fossil fuel, there is a real question as to the quality of the planet that we are going to be leaving our children and our grandchildren.
Bernie Sanders
I think we bring together that broad coalition including Russia to help us destroy ISIS and work on a timetable to get rid of Assad, hopefully through Democratic elections. First priority, destroy ISIS.
Bernie Sanders
The Affordable Care Act has clearly, as Secretary Clinton made the point, done a lot of good things, but, what it has not done is dealt with the fact we have 29 million people today who have zero health insurance, we have even more who are underinsured with large deductibles and copayments and prescription drug prices are off the wall.
Bernie Sanders
Are we prepared to take on the enormous political power of the billionaire class or do we continue to slide into economic and political oligarchy?
Bernie Sanders
I do believe that billionaires and multi-millionaires should be paying more in taxes.
Bernie Sanders
Let us wage a moral and political war against the billionaires and corporate leaders, on Wall Street and elsewhere, whose policies and greed are destroying the middle class of America.
