Freedom of speech, the right to dissent, the right to protest, that is what America is about. And politically every leader in this country and every American has got to stand up against any form of violence. That is unacceptable.

More quotes by 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
We have to say to the billionaire class, enough is enough. You cannot have it all. You are going to pay more in taxes.
Bernie Sanders
I think it's important that members of the United States Senate spend time not just on Capitol Hill but making contact with ordinary people and engaging them in the political process.
Bernie Sanders
The fossil fuel industry for too long has shifted enormous costs of carbon pollution onto the public.
Bernie Sanders
Income and wealth inequality have reached obscene levels, the threat of climate change is more frightening than ever, and the billionaire class is now allowed to spend unlimited amounts of money to buy the candidate they want. And it is up to us to stand up and fight back. If we stand together, there is no limit to what we can accomplish.
Bernie Sanders
Democrats need to become a 50-state party. You can't have a great party on the West Coast and the East Coast. You need to have a party in all 50 states.
Bernie Sanders
The United States must join the rest of the industrialized world, guarantee health care to all people as a right.
Bernie Sanders
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
The Democratic Party has been very strong in a lot of areas, in fighting to make our country a less discriminatory country. And that is enormously important.
Bernie Sanders
Hillary Clinton does represent the establishment. I represent, I hope, ordinary Americans, and by the way, who are not all that enamored with the establishment, but I am very proud to have people like Keith Ellison and Raul Grijalva in the House, the co-chairmen of the House Progressive Caucus.
Bernie Sanders
The greed of the billionaire class has got to end and we are going to end it for them.
Bernie Sanders
Let's ask why it is that we pay, by far, the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs, and your medicine can be doubled tomorrow, and there's nothing that the government can do to stop it.
Bernie Sanders
We can have paid family and medical leave. We can make public colleges and universities tuition-free. These are not revolutionary, radical ideas. They're kind of common sense.
Bernie Sanders
In any democratic, civilized - even non-democratic nations, if you are a nation, it means to say that in our case, if there's a hurricane in Louisiana, the people of Vermont are there for them. If there's a tornado in the Midwest, we are there for them. If there's flooding in the East Coast, the people in California are there for us.
Bernie Sanders
We are going to do everything that we can to protect working families in this country.
Bernie Sanders
Climate change is real, caused by human activity and already devastating our nation and planet. The United States must lead the world in combating climate change and transforming our energy system away from fossil fuels and toward energy efficiency and sustainability.
Bernie Sanders
I don't want to see kids in America being scared because they're hearing people on television and the radio saying really ugly xenophobic and racist things.
Bernie Sanders
At a time of massive inequality, I think we can raise substantial sums of revenue to address the needs of working families, the elderly, and the children, by asking those people who are doing phenomenally well to start paying their fair share.
Bernie Sanders
In fact, climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism.
Bernie Sanders
I happen to believe that one of the great crises facing the planet is climate change. Donald Trump happens not to think that climate change is real. Hillary Clinton takes it seriously.
