These are the same people who believe, in some cases, the federal government should not play any role in providing health care to our people or protecting the environment.

More quotes by Bernie Sanders
I don't consider myself a pariah.
Bernie Sanders
But because media is what media is today, any stupid, absurd remark made by Donald Trump becomes the story of the week. Maybe, just maybe, we might want to have a serious discussion about the serious issues facing America. Donald Trump will not look quite so interesting in that context.
Bernie Sanders
We need to change the power structure in America, we need to end the political oligarchy.
Bernie Sanders
We need a strategy. And the goal is to bring millions of people together.
Bernie Sanders
I am very glad, Anderson, that secretary Clinton discovered religion on this issue but it's a little bit too late. Secretary Clinton supported virtually every one of the disastrous trade agreements written by corporate America.
Bernie Sanders
Do I consider myself a part of the casino capitalist process? No I don't. I believe in a society where all people do well.
Bernie Sanders
If you look at the newspapers here - the Washington papers - most of the discussion deals with campaign gossip.
Bernie Sanders
I know media is not necessarily focused on these things. But what a campaign is about is not Hillary Clinton, it's not Donald Trump. It is the people of this country, people who are working longer hours for lower wages, people who do not have health care or are underinsured.
Bernie Sanders
Our goal there, in my view, is to work and lean strongly on China to put as much pressure. China is one of the few major countries in the world that has significant support for North Korea, and I think we got to do everything we can to put pressure on China. I worry very much about an isolated, paranoid country with atomic bombs.
Bernie Sanders
Black people are dying in this country because we have a criminal justice system which is out of control, a system in which over 50% of young African American kids are unemployed. It is estimated that a black baby born today has a one in four chance of ending up in the criminal justice system.
Bernie Sanders
When we talk about power, we talk about Wall Street.
Bernie Sanders
I very strongly disagreed with President Clinton on the deregulation of Wall Street. I opposed that strenuously.
Bernie Sanders
I fully, fully concede that Secretary Hillary Clinton, who was secretary of State for four years, has more experience - hat is not arguable - in foreign affairs.
Bernie Sanders
Every person in this country who has the desire and ability should be able to get all the education they need regardless of the income of their family. This is not a radical idea. In Germany, Scandinavia and many other countries, higher education is either free or very inexpensive. We must do the same.
Bernie Sanders
Even in South Carolina, as badly as we did, and we did very badly, we won the votes of people 29 years of age or younger. The future of the Democratic Party, the future of this country is involving young people in the political process, getting them to stand up for their rights.
Bernie Sanders
I think it is now widely understood that the so-called War on Drugs has largely been a failure. Too many people have developed criminal records for smoking marijuana. Too many people have gone to jail for nonviolent crimes. So I think it's important for us to rethink the war on drugs.
Bernie Sanders
The Federal Reserve has a responsibility to ensure the safety and soundness of financial institutions and to contain systemic risks in financial markets.
Bernie Sanders
I think that the media spends far too much time [on personalities].
Bernie Sanders
If jazz education in our colleges were free to all it would provide thousands of good jobs in the music industry which has been taken over by corrupt millionaires and billionaires.
Bernie Sanders
Don`t take it out on the Muslims. Don`t take it out on Latinos. Try to help us work together to create a country where your kids and you can have a decent standard of living. It has to be a bold and radical agenda.
Bernie Sanders
