There is nobody that I know who believes that Bank of America is a human being who should be entitled for the same constitutional rights that the people of our country are.

Establishing a 0.03 percent Wall Street speculation fee, similar to what we had from 1914-1966, would dampen the dangerous level of speculation and gambling on Wall Street, encourage the financial sector to invest in the productive economy and reduce the deficit by more than $350 billion over 10 years.

I will challenge anybody with regard to my record on LGBT issues.

Donald Trump is a pathological liar. We have never - our campaign does not believe and never will encourage anybody to disrupt anything. I would hope that Mr. Trump tones it down big time.

For many, the American Dream has become a nightmare.

I think we're going to win a very good share of those delegates. I think you've got major states coming up. And I think the important point is that people throughout this country are resonating to our message.

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

You've got the top 400 Americans owning more wealth than the bottom 150 million Americans. Most folks do not think that is right.

I think there are many people in the working class who say, you know what? Yes, maybe we are better off than we were eight years ago, but I am still working two or three jobs, my kid can't afford to go to college, I can't afford child care, my real wages have been going down for 40 years. The middle class is shrinking. Who's standing up for me?

At a time when the Post Office is losing substantial revenue from the instantaneous flow of information by email and on the Internet, slowing mail service is a recipe for disaster.

We don't need a president like a Trump who doesn't actually, George, doesn't even believe in climate change, let alone wants to do anything about it, rejecting science.
Bernie Sanders

If we invest in jobs for our kids and do our best to keep them in school, we will end up saving a whole lot of lives and whole lot of money.

There is something fundamentally wrong about the way we [americans] are moving as a country, when billionaires are able to buy elections as a result of Citizens United. There`s something fundamentally wrong when 99 percent of all new income goes to the top 1 percent.

The reality is that we have one of lowest voter turnouts of any major country on earth because so many people have given up on the political process. The reality is that there has been trillions of dollars of wealth going from the middle class in the last 30 years to the top 1/10th of 1 percent.

A guy named Adolf Hitler won an election in 1932 ... and 50 million people died as a result ... what I learned as a little kid is that politics is, in fact, very important.

The American people understand that we need real change in this country, in my view, a political revolution, which says to the people on top, You know what, you guys can't have it all.
Bernie Sanders
Image
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.

It costs a hell of a lot more money to put somebody in jail than send them to the University of Virginia.

It's no great secret, number one, in my view, and I think the view of most Americans, that Congress itself is pretty dysfunctional. We are not addressing the real needs of the American people. And second of all, philosophically, there is a huge division between the House and the Senate.

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.
