More quotes by Bernie Sanders
Whether it is television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books or the Internet, a few giant conglomerates are determining what we see, hear and read.
Bernie Sanders
In terms of Iran and in terms of Saudi Arabia, of course they hate each other. That's no great secret. But John Kerry, who is I think doing a very good job, has tried to at least get these people in the room together because both of them are being threatened by ISIS.
Bernie Sanders
I am very proud of the campaign we ran and the supporters that came on board.
Bernie Sanders
I think what the secretary Hillary Clinton has recognized is the American people are extremely angry about the power of Wall Street, the greed, the illegal behavior of Wall Street.
Bernie Sanders
I am extraordinarily proud of the campaign that we ran. The issues that we raised, the fact that we got 13 million Americans to vote for a political revolution.
Bernie Sanders
I'm not really opposed to people changing their minds. I'm much more concerned with people who never change their minds no matter what new information is available.
Bernie Sanders
We are going to do everything that we can to protect working families in this country.
Bernie Sanders
[Iranians] are a sponsor of terrorism around the world and we have to address that.
Bernie Sanders
We are rapidly moving toward a nation of the super-rich, by the super-rich and for the super-rich
Bernie Sanders
This is what I would ask of the American people, and that is, and the media does not do this terribly often - put things in contact.
Bernie Sanders
What does a political revolution look like? It means that 80 percent of the people vote in national elections, not 40 percent. It means that billionaires can't make unlimited campaign contributions and buy and sell politicians. It means that the U.S. government represents the needs of all the people, not just the 1 percent and their lobbyists.
Bernie Sanders
Donald Trump's language has been atrocious, his behavior toward women.
Bernie Sanders
We have organizations, whether it is ISIS or Al Qaida, who do believe we should go back several thousand years. We should make women third-class citizens, that we should allow children to be sexually assaulted. They are a danger to modern society.
Bernie Sanders
How do we say, why do you keep voting for people who are giving more tax breaks to billionaires, who are going to send your jobs abroad, not going to let you form a union, not going to allow your kids to go to college? Why do you keep voting for these guys?
Bernie Sanders
Do not tell me that I have not shown courage in standing up to the gun people, in voting to ban assault weapons, voting for instant background checks, voting to end the gun show loophole and now in a position to create a consensus in America on gun safety.
Bernie Sanders
The Republicans are many things, but they're not dumb. And if millions of people begin to stand up and fight back, they're going to be thinking twice about doing very bad things.
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
When we are fighting for huge stakes - we're fighting for the future - future of the planet in terms of climate change. We're fighting for the future of American democracy.
Bernie Sanders
The fossil fuel industry for too long has shifted enormous costs of carbon pollution onto the public.
Bernie Sanders
The Republicans are many things, but they're not dumb.
