More quotes by Bernie Sanders
A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much and so many have so little.
Bernie Sanders
I have known Secretary [Hillary] Clinton for 25 years and respect her very much.
Bernie Sanders
We`re not going to let the United States continue to have one of the highest rates of childhood poverty in the industrialized world in - at a time when we`re seeing a proliferation of millionaires and billionaires.
Bernie Sanders
The billionaires and their super PACs increasingly control the American political process. This is not democracy. This is not what brave Americans fought and died to defend. This is oligarchy. This is government of the few, by the few and for the few. We must overturn Citizen United and move to public funding of elections.
Bernie Sanders
Instead of talking about cuts in Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, we must end the absurdity of corporations not paying a nickel in federal income taxes.
Bernie Sanders
I love music, I'm very eclectic. On my iPad I have the complete works of Ludwig van Beethoven.
Bernie Sanders
In fact, climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism.
Bernie Sanders
Brothers and sisters: Now is not the time for thinking small, now is not the time for the same-old, same-old establishment politics and stale inside-the-Beltway ideas.
Bernie Sanders
Donald Trump believes that climate change is a hoax. Now, this is not just a stupid expression, but it is incredibly dangerous.
Bernie Sanders
We have got to mobilize people and rethink our commitment in terms of what our role is in the political process.
Bernie Sanders
I don't run against Hillary Clinton. I run on the most important issues facing America.
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
I have not heard almost anybody suggest that raising the minimum wage to the level we have in Vermont has been an impediment to our economy which is doing reasonably well ... If somebody is going to work that person has got to receive at least a wage that they can go out and live with dignity on. That's an extremely important point.
Bernie Sanders
At the current $5.15 an hour, the federal minimum wage has become a poverty wage. A full-time worker with one child lives below the official poverty line.
Bernie Sanders
I am sure that there are some single payer advocates who think the only thing worth fighting for is single payer.
Bernie Sanders
Finally, let understand that when we stand together, we will always win. When men and women stand together for justice, we win. When black, white and Hispanic people stand together for justice, we win.
Bernie Sanders
So what I have said with regard to Boeing and GE and other multinationals that pay zero taxes, you know what we're going to do? We're going to end that loophole. They are going to pay their fair share of taxes.
Bernie Sanders
Politics does not end the day of the election.
Bernie Sanders
Wall Street is greedy, reckless and they operate illegally. That's fine. But what do you do?
Bernie Sanders
I think it makes people in the Pentagon kind of nervous to know that chemical agents and environmental factors could cause so much damage in terms of what may happen in the future.
