He’s so right. We need to get rid of lobbyists, and huge donations to candidates. Citizens United has been a disaster. All that money raised for candidates can be used instead to solve problems.
Money in politics is clearly the most important issue. That and access to voting are A1 and a2. The interviewer was acting like what 'money in politics nobody talks about that'.
Most people have no clue what Citizens United is and what it does. It allows big corporations and super rich to donate millions to the GOP (MAGA) so they can buy their King of the USA. Your average American fool does not know that.
Yes. He also always asks us to join him and all who already participate in civilized, civic action. There are several excellent videos of his ideas and plans, coming from his tireless work to gather the facts and consider the People-and our Constitution. While they are not affiliated with him, People for the American Way, Common Cause, When We All Vote, Demand Justice, just a few of the quality groups of everyday people we can check out/join in, to help strengthen Sen. Sanders' work and see the best America we can build come to be. As Bernie says, "Not me, us,".

@@michaellong9214 There was NO betrayal. Bernie explained, at the time, the most important factor was keeping Trump out of the WH. If you listen to Bernie and learn about how he works, you can learn a great deal about how American politics works, and is supposed to work. I wanted Bernie for President, also. PS President-elect Biden did ask Sen. Sanders to send some of his folks over to meet with Pres. Biden's folks to share ideas, create policies and do the best work possible. Sen. Sanders did exactly this.
he was trying to get Bernie to say certain things and he's too sharp for that. Bernie was like Ok I'll ask the questions so we can actually do something here
Thats because Politico has zero interest in getting anything meaningful out of a conversation. They are an extremely right wing media company that poses as some non-partisan organization lol
He stood against the Democrat party every single time. He doesn't stand for us; he stands for Trump and refuses to actively support the Democrat candidate every fvcking tim unless it's him. That's why he never actually supports Dem candidates and tries to get people to vote against them. Wake up.

I love Bernie and voted for him and would again. I keep one of his campaign posters on my fridge as a reminder of the work we still must do to realize his vision for the American people and his unwavering fight for workers, unions and people in need.
Disingenuous interviewer being openly passive aggressive and antagonistic. Politco has always talked down to bernie, this guy is a distillation of that attitude.
Straight-talking Bernie is the real deal whose soul cannot be bought. He is the ideal politician, bold, courageous and steadfast in his morals and values. A Jew who has the integrity to call foul on his own ppl, believing wrong is wrong regardless of who commits it. Unfortunately he is also right when he alludes to the fact that whichever party is in power, money politics will come into play and the DP are not totally immune.
I had forgotten why I am not a big fan of Politico. Lotsa gotchas that went nowhere. Thank you Bernie for reminding people that age is not an issue. You are sharp and in command of your thoughts the way most millennials can't.
Politico felt it was needed for Bernie to help out. America needs to work together for the people who do the work and have hearts to help there neighbor. Go Bernie he is the Best Friend of the average joe we ever will have.
Bernie is right on point! This is not a beauty contest . Biden’s record speaks volume and I believe he would have beat trump a second time without a doubt. Biden will go down in history as one of the most progressive leaders dating back to FDR. God bless him and I thank him from the bottom of my heart. 💙 💙 💙 💪 💪 💪 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🌊 🌊 🌊 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦!!!!
This interviewer did not want a serious conversation on policy. He spent at least the first 10 minutes asking partisan questions about his opinion of if he likes Biden, Harris, and Walz. I stopped watching after 10 min because he was that bad.
Yes this media guy was the same kind of horse race/ let's find the shiny object to talk and chat about instead of the real issues that Bernie Sanders has educated as all on since 2015. We all have watched those lectures to the press corps. And damn if he isn't right you see this happen all the time including right here. Little substance just shiny object you like this guy or you like that guy. Soap opera stuff
You guys clearly don't listen to many Ryan Lizza interviews if you think he only challenges Bernie. He asks tough questions to everyone, you just watch interviewees you like so you assume he hates your favorite politician.
@@chriskovatch4207 lol bernie is far from my favorite politician. Never been a bernie bro, never will be. I don’t hold politicians up on pedestals. If this is how he interviews Bernie especially how he wasted the first 10 min not talking actual policy, then i don’t need to waste my time watching any of his “work”
As a first time viewer of Politico I'm seriously unimpressed with this employee who attempted to engage in dialog. Bernie has a sharp and clear vision that should be listened to.
the worst mistake the democratic party made, twice, was to keep bernie from being the nominee. trump would have never become president if he went against bernie. one of the few politicians i truly love.
I'm not American and all I ever hear about when Biden is mentioned in the media is how old and senile he's getting... I honestly have never even heard of any of this stuff he's been doing! Why's the actual work he's been doing not mentioned more often?
In the US, we call it mainstream media, MSM, owned by 5 huge corporations. only interested in profit, selling commercial time. Don't report on issues, but treat politics like celebrity gossip, clickbait infotainment. Democracy Now is a nonprofit which does real journalism for us in the US.
Because of where you're seeing it mentioned: it's all corporate owned. The sources that are not corporate owned are very interested in Biden's policies and showing what he's doing that is GOOD. Plus corporate paid bots practically run the internet now in social media comments. And no, this isn't one.
He has always been a Marxist lazy bum. He is a multimillionaire, owns three houses, and does not share them with the poor folks who live in this country.
Man, Bernie is one of the best interviewees out there. His interview with Theo Von was outstanding. This interviewer was pretty bad but Bernie saves the day as always.
The way that Bernie is spinning circles and walking all over this interviewer! He came so unprepared and asked god awful questions and offering opinions.
We SAY we don't like dictators but we sure have a history of propping them up and apparently we're loving the one we might get here if the electoral gets grabbed.
Right out of the gate, this dude Lizza interrupts Sanders to say, "you always, but that, I mean, that's like, you know, you fault the media," before Sanders even finishes his sentence. And just a minute later, when Sanders asks him "how much real discussion there's been on the most important issues facing the American people [this election cycle]," this dummy's got some cheesy cornball reply that not only fails to answer Sander's question honestly, but utterly botches his lame attempt to peddle Politico. Another writer who thinks he can direct.
He is sharp as a tack and speaks intelligently about all issues, both here and abroad. The compassion he shows is as genuine as he is. Love this man.❤️
Social Issues to address in order of importance: 1. Wealth Inequality. Until We the People stop those who have the most from steering the ship, we're rudderless and doomed to wreck. Remove BIG Money from Politics. 2. Education. We all need to understand and ACCEPT the same set of facts. Everyone should have the ability to become the best person they can be and have FREE access to the means to accomplish that goal. 3. Climate Change. Why not #1, Hell, even #2? See #1 and #2. Until we have those, we can't change much else. VOTE BLUE 2024! ❤🇺🇸 You the Man Bernie!
Don't forget about affordable, high quality, specialized (when needed) healthcare. Perhaps if we addressed #1, that would help with this. But this should be #1 or #2 on any list of important things this country needs to address immediately.
They're just issues! And they're more policy and economic, not necessarily "social" which tend to mean things like identity politics For instance, climate change is not primarily a social issue but clearly it is affecting all societies everywhere. Otherwise, yes! on all points!
Senator Bernie Sanders is absolutely correct! We MUST focus on the ISSUES!!!!!!! Our media is corporate media, the people who work for these corporations do what the CEOs want them to say and do.
@@auhsz9140maybe give an interview that’s not more than half your own whining about the interviewee’s correct criticism of the media in general. Go join fly a kite!
This interviewer/host is both pompous and overly opinionated, and it sears through every question asked in his tone and quips. Not to mention, *literally silencing* your guest is not only *wrong,* but is a PR nightmare. Find this guy a job behind a desk.
Shoulda coulda woulda. He refused to fight "his good frind Joe" on anything, and lost to people who didnt care about smearing and lying. I like him a lot. But for somebody talking about "political revolution" he was weak and conflilct-avoidant.
Adversarial interviewer! He's more interested in attacking Bernie than in finding out what he has to say. Luckily, Bernie's up to handling that tactic.
I agree with most people who posted here in this thread. Bernie is honest, cares about our country and the people, is the most honorable politician ever!!!
Thank you for continuing to fight for our freedoms and democracy! I did not vote for you when you ran for president as a 3rd. party candidate because I knew I would be just throwing my vote away so I voted for Hillary.. I'm sorry! My vote would not have made any difference. But I just want to let you know that I know if you were president that by now all Americans would be enjoying a much healthier and prosperous life! I'm extremely sorry that more Americans can't see how correct you are about everything. Again; Thank you for continuing to fight and I'm sorry you haven't led our country as president!
Horrible interviewer! Nearly no solid policy questions, all about teasing out opinions and loaylty oaths. Constantly cutting into answers and monologizing himself, talking over his interviewee. How is this incompetent allowed to do such high-profile work in front of millions? I know politico has been on the decline as far as good political work goes, but this is shamefully bad spin media.
It's a big reason why Bernie had to start questioning him! It is pathetic how Politico is so to the right but consistently pretends that it is centrist. Centrist doesn't mean what it used to because Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton (!) and W and co. moved that line in the sand so far. Bernie is a Truman in policy. Read Truman's campaign of 1948; it's basically the same as Bernie's but with a pricing issue of margarine (Oleo) in '48.
I like Bernie. In 2015, I went to San Francisco to monitor a vote count on his campaign's behalf. I paid for the trip. Bernie is a service oriented politician.
I was hoping what you said back in 2016. It would've helped her appeal to more voters in the Rust Belt States (at least Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin). Tim Kaine wasn't as popular as Bernie Sanders or Kamala Harris while she was a senator.
@@joel_anderson_tYES 👍 BERNIE❣ In hindsight, Tim Kaine has value. But I STILL don't know a lot about him. Hillary Clinton's campaign was BADLY Run on so many levels! And it seemed that Bernie was stumping MidWest more than HC or TK‼️ 😫😖
@@joel_anderson_t Tim Kaine continues to be a dust bunny. And neither are that Vance stain. How Trump keeps appealing is appalling because he's worse than anything.
See here's the thing about Bernie Sanders. You sit him on a chair and give him a microphone he is going to say the same. Damn. Things. Every. Time. He has his talking points he manages to work them in and you are seriously deluded if you think you're going to unhook him in any way shape or form from those talking points. He's got a side A and a side B and they're the same. That's the power of the Bern!
Right! Because the essential problems have NOT changed: campaign finance reform is the #1 thing that can get things changed because representatives will no longer represent their corporate donors' interests but their actual constituents.
This great man of social justice believes that government must be by the people, for the people and from the people not by corporation, from corporations and for corporations and Republicans. Long live Bernie! Thanks!
Agree with him or not, you're always going to get an honest, genuine answer from him. He's not a phony, narcissistic, opportunist like the vast majority of politicians.
Why “affordable”? I’m fairly sure that America is the only western nation that does NOT have taxpayer-funded universal comprehensive healthcare. The insurance mafia will have fits but it’s long overdue for America to implement universal, comprehensive healthcare and bring America into the civilized western union of nations. It’s beyond my comprehension as a Canadian that heavy duty health crises like cancer can bankrupt American families. Capitalism built the western countries but it has changed from benevolent to ravenously predatory. Obscene greed is destroying an otherwise civilized society.
Thank you BERNIE! YOU have been key to many of the Democrat's great moves. I see your prints everywhere and really appreciate what you have achieved! Feel the BERN!
As a dutch person i understand bernie was never cool enough to be elected by americans. Merica ignored the smartest guy in the room and voted for the dumbest. dude so smart and ahead of his time people fear the change for the better.
Remember the meme with Bernie sitting by himself on his own folding chair wearing his Vermont mittens at President Biden’s inauguration? The man is cool in his own way. People asked me to crochet “Bernie in Mittens,” for them, and they came out so cute…just like the Senator.
lol, this senior citizen has been living on less than $10k/yr for the past 20yrs! of course my house is paid off and i have lived a healthy life, and i grow 90% of my food. i am lucky. soon, i hope to become compost to maintain the fertility of my food forest 🙂
@@dahliafully yes many do not but most do and choose to do nothing. its not like i was ever making a lot of money. i just stopped wasting money and focused on the goal and persisted to make it happen. so i live like a monk but at least i live free, mostly 🙂
@@AlsanPine good for you. That's quite the sweeping generalization to say that most have health, property and skills and then do nothing. People face all sorts of challenges that interrupt their lives despite what they do. And there is no way for a young person to pay off a house at $10k a year. Your generational luck paid off for you to survive like that despite the thrift. I'm glad you recognize that you are lucky.
@@dahliafully of course i never said that you can pay off a house on $10k/yr. i said i can live on that with a paid off house and growing my own food and not wasting money, time, and resources in general. as i dedicated my life to service, i never made much money in my life. i was able to pay off my modest 1 acre property, however. you can call it a sweeping generalization all you want but it is very easy to see how wasteful people are. my most lucky break was being born in a family that encouraged me to learn. i grew up learning how to fix things myself and i never stopped learning. when doctors told me i would not make it past the 80's, i learned about nutrition and herbal medicine and here i am healthier than all the lazy people around me. i am not special at all. i am not particularly smart. i am not endowed with an exceptional body. what i do have is the ability to learn and adjust and find solutions to obstacles. it took time. and yes, it took luck but life is all about what we do with our luck. everyone living in this country is lucky. try living in the congo! i was also lucky to have lived all over the world as my dad worked for the gov and we traveled and lived all over. i appreciated the gifts we have living here. we americans winging about our tough life is very much like trump whining about how unfair his lot is! live well 🙂
Biden stepping aside without a fuss was an act of love and loyalty for what America is supposed based on the basic concept of liberty and justice for ALL, not some based on skin color or wealth. End lobbying and corporate oligarchs.
Notice how Bernie cared what the people had to say but the host just pushed to show how smart he is.. actions speak volumes. Listen to the people out there working it and making it work for you or you will get bad results.
I am not a registered Democrat anymore because they forced out Bernie from 2 primary seasons in 2016 and 2020. Not very Democratic of them. He could have been one of the greatest presidents we ever had and what we need at this time in history. Unforgivable
it is a sad statement about MSM that they still don’t treat this man with the respect he deserves - there is always a hint/undertone of “awww isn’t he cute” … Oh well.
It’s disgusting, but these are the people who run our government. They don’t think they don’t even like him just like they don’t like anybody who doesn’t make 1 million bucks. 12:20
It is so refreshing to see and hear Bernie on what's going on today. He's still the most authentic and honest politician around
SANDERS HAS LIED AND LIED HIS WHOLE POLITICAL LIFE.

He has always been a Marxist lazy bum. He is a multimillionaire, owns three houses, and does not share them with the poor folks who live in this country.

I love Bernie and voted for him and would again. I keep one of his campaign posters on my fridge as a reminder of the work we still must do to realize his vision for the American people and his unwavering fight for workers, unions and people in need.
Bernie is the greatest
Bernie is the G.O.A.T.
Disingenuous interviewer being openly passive aggressive and antagonistic. Politco has always talked down to bernie, this guy is a distillation of that attitude.
Straight-talking Bernie is the real deal whose soul cannot be bought. He is the ideal politician, bold, courageous and steadfast in his morals and values.
A Jew who has the integrity to call foul on his own ppl, believing wrong is wrong regardless of who commits it.
Unfortunately he is also right when he alludes to the fact that whichever party is in power, money politics will come into play and the DP are not totally immune.
Great ''interview'' not even letting him speak or ask the AUDIENCE a question!
hey, at least his questions were verbose, meandering, and akwardly delivered
Bernie Sanders, the best President the United States never had. ❤
I had forgotten why I am not a big fan of Politico. Lotsa gotchas that went nowhere. Thank you Bernie for reminding people that age is not an issue. You are sharp and in command of your thoughts the way most millennials can't.
Politico felt it was needed for Bernie to help out. America needs to work together for the people who do the work and have hearts to help there neighbor. Go Bernie he is the Best Friend of the average joe we ever will have.
Bernie is right on point! This is not a beauty contest . Biden’s record speaks volume and I believe he would have beat trump a second time without a doubt. Biden will go down in history as one of the most progressive leaders dating back to FDR. God bless him and I thank him from the bottom of my heart. 💙 💙 💙 💪 💪 💪 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🌊 🌊 🌊 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦!!!!
This interviewer did not want a serious conversation on policy. He spent at least the first 10 minutes asking partisan questions about his opinion of if he likes Biden, Harris, and Walz. I stopped watching after 10 min because he was that bad.
You might want to go back and watch the rest. Bernie puts him in his place and it got better.
Yes this media guy was the same kind of horse race/ let's find the shiny object to talk and chat about instead of the real issues that Bernie Sanders has educated as all on since 2015. We all have watched those lectures to the press corps. And damn if he isn't right you see this happen all the time including right here. Little substance just shiny object you like this guy or you like that guy. Soap opera stuff
You guys clearly don't listen to many Ryan Lizza interviews if you think he only challenges Bernie. He asks tough questions to everyone, you just watch interviewees you like so you assume he hates your favorite politician.
BS ANOTHER CRAZY FKR PAIDOFF BY HARRIS..COMMIES
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@chriskovatch4207 lol bernie is far from my favorite politician. Never been a bernie bro, never will be. I don’t hold politicians up on pedestals. If this is how he interviews Bernie especially how he wasted the first 10 min not talking actual policy, then i don’t need to waste my time watching any of his “work”
As a first time viewer of Politico I'm seriously unimpressed with this employee who attempted to engage in dialog. Bernie has a sharp and clear vision that should be listened to.
the worst mistake the democratic party made, twice, was to keep bernie from being the nominee. trump would have never become president if he went against bernie. one of the few politicians i truly love.
I'm not American and all I ever hear about when Biden is mentioned in the media is how old and senile he's getting... I honestly have never even heard of any of this stuff he's been doing! Why's the actual work he's been doing not mentioned more often?
In the US, we call it mainstream media, MSM, owned by 5 huge corporations. only interested in profit, selling commercial time. Don't report on issues, but treat politics like celebrity gossip, clickbait infotainment. Democracy Now is a nonprofit which does real journalism for us in the US.
Because of where you're seeing it mentioned: it's all corporate owned. The sources that are not corporate owned are very interested in Biden's policies and showing what he's doing that is GOOD. Plus corporate paid bots practically run the internet now in social media comments. And no, this isn't one.
Bernie truly is Americas champion for the people. We ❤ you Bernie! Please everyone VOTE 🗳️ 💙💙💙
..or for Ralph Nader of the Grean Pty. (the 2 major USA parties are really only one (two different colors). Sad USA!
He has always been a Marxist lazy bum. He is a multimillionaire, owns three houses, and does not share them with the poor folks who live in this country.
❤
For decades Bernie has worked to make our government -our nation! our world!- OF the people, BY the people, FOR the people.
Amazingly humble, that Bernie.😊
Interviewer got in the way of what could have been a great Interview.
Man, Bernie is one of the best interviewees out there. His interview with Theo Von was outstanding. This interviewer was pretty bad but Bernie saves the day as always.
Yesss Bern! Money in politics is THE issue... and Supreme Court.
Love you Bernie! I'm glad you are still out there fighting the good fight for us! Campaign Finance Reform!!!
As a Muslim and as an Iranian, I can not help not respect this Jewish gentleman...
The way that Bernie is spinning circles and walking all over this interviewer! He came so unprepared and asked god awful questions and offering opinions.
I love Bernie talking with young people.
He's the best that way. He makes me happy! Yea!
Bernie is so right on Israel. US should make support contingent upon the stepping down on Netinyahu
It's a pity that Bernie, and you, don't look behind the radical Islamic propaganda and understand what's really going on in the Middle East.
We SAY we don't like dictators but we sure have a history of propping them up and apparently we're loving the one we might get here if the electoral gets grabbed.
Terrible interviewer.
Its Politico , they are bought by the corporate media.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who thought that
Right out of the gate, this dude Lizza interrupts Sanders to say, "you always, but that, I mean, that's like, you know, you fault the media," before Sanders even finishes his sentence. And just a minute later, when Sanders asks him "how much real discussion there's been on the most important issues facing the American people [this election cycle]," this dummy's got some cheesy cornball reply that not only fails to answer Sander's question honestly, but utterly botches his lame attempt to peddle Politico. Another writer who thinks he can direct.
Complete a**hole. I thought politico was better than this. @@steusebius
@@steusebiushe didn't much care for being put on the spot, did he?? Never answered Bernie's question!
Terrible interviewer. Rude holding his phone like a teenager who can't live without their phone. Let Bernie go and educate us on the facts.
I agree, but this is a certified boomer comment
Maybe not a great interview but I love hearing Bernie run the show.
He is sharp as a tack and speaks intelligently about all issues, both here and abroad. The compassion he shows is as genuine as he is. Love this man.❤️
Social Issues to address in order of importance:
1. Wealth Inequality. Until We the People stop those who have the most from steering the ship, we're rudderless and doomed to wreck. Remove BIG Money from Politics.
2. Education. We all need to understand and ACCEPT the same set of facts. Everyone should have the ability to become the best person they can be and have FREE access to the means to accomplish that goal.
3. Climate Change. Why not #1, Hell, even #2? See #1 and #2. Until we have those, we can't change much else.
VOTE BLUE 2024! ❤🇺🇸
You the Man Bernie!
Don't forget about affordable, high quality, specialized (when needed) healthcare.
Perhaps if we addressed #1, that would help with this. But this should be #1 or #2 on any list of important things this country needs to address immediately.
They're just issues! And they're more policy and economic, not necessarily "social" which tend to mean things like identity politics For instance, climate change is not primarily a social issue but clearly it is affecting all societies everywhere. Otherwise, yes! on all points!
Senator Bernie Sanders is absolutely correct!
We MUST focus on the ISSUES!!!!!!!
Our media is corporate media, the people who work for these corporations do what the CEOs want them to say and do.
Bernie has been the only person I’ve voted for for the last two elections. He’s still sharp and spitting facts.
VOTE and vote 'down ballot.' It's not just the president!! It's local elections and congress that matter most!
Bernie is a gift to America. 💕
Kommunist……..
❤❤❤
This interviewer is god awful
No surprise there, it's politico...
@@arvindparthasarathy2862 oh shut up. go out and start the revolution. we are waiting.
@@arvindparthasarathy2862 little wannabe Mao Zedong
Yep.
@@auhsz9140maybe give an interview that’s not more than half your own whining about the interviewee’s correct criticism of the media in general. Go join fly a kite!
This interviewer/host is both pompous and overly opinionated, and it sears through every question asked in his tone and quips.
Not to mention, *literally silencing* your guest is not only *wrong,* but is a PR nightmare.
Find this guy a job behind a desk.
Bernie has been standing up for us his entire career. He is the best. Thank you.
"Trump lies in preposterous ways."
-Bernie Sanders.
Bernie should’ve been President!
My sentiments exactly!
Shoulda coulda woulda.
He refused to fight "his good frind Joe" on anything, and lost to people who didnt care about smearing and lying.
I like him a lot.
But for somebody talking about "political revolution" he was weak and conflilct-avoidant.
😆 there's a reason why he's not, can you figure it out?
It’s because the powers that be were afraid to allow him to become the nominee and of course , the president . Which would have happened. Twice.
Okay, now I really want to see an interview between Bernie (where Bernie does the questioning) and Walz.
That is a fine proposal. I'd like to see that too. The chasm between them is enormous.
Adversarial interviewer! He's more interested in attacking Bernie than in finding out what he has to say. Luckily, Bernie's up to handling that tactic.
I agree with most people who posted here in this thread. Bernie is honest, cares about our country and the people, is the most honorable politician ever!!!
Bernie is a national treasure…
Always great to hear what Senator Sanders has to say... he, like Joe Biden, is a national treasure and such a principled man.
Bernie Sanders 2024 , if he ran I’d vote for him 💯
In an election free of manipulation specifically designed to defeat him, Bernie Sanders would win primary and general elections in a landslide.
In a heartbeat!! 💗
Well, vote for the woman that he is endorsing!!!
Thank you for continuing to fight for our freedoms and democracy! I did not vote for you when you ran for president as a 3rd. party candidate because I knew I would be just throwing my vote away so I voted for Hillary.. I'm sorry! My vote would not have made any difference. But I just want to let you know that I know if you were president that by now all Americans would be enjoying a much healthier and prosperous life! I'm extremely sorry that more Americans can't see how correct you are about everything. Again; Thank you for continuing to fight and I'm sorry you haven't led our country as president!
Horrible interviewer!
Nearly no solid policy questions, all about teasing out opinions and loaylty oaths.
Constantly cutting into answers and monologizing himself, talking over his interviewee.
How is this incompetent allowed to do such high-profile work in front of millions?
I know politico has been on the decline as far as good political work goes, but this is shamefully bad spin media.
Absolutely
It's a big reason why Bernie had to start questioning him! It is pathetic how Politico is so to the right but consistently pretends that it is centrist. Centrist doesn't mean what it used to because Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton (!) and W and co. moved that line in the sand so far. Bernie is a Truman in policy. Read Truman's campaign of 1948; it's basically the same as Bernie's but with a pricing issue of margarine (Oleo) in '48.
Mr Senders is fantastic.
I like Bernie. In 2015, I went to San Francisco to monitor a vote count on his campaign's behalf. I paid for the trip. Bernie is a service oriented politician.
If Hillary picked "her Tim Walz", a.k.a. Bernie, she would've won. Kamala is at least willing to learn from the past. 👍👏🎉🎉♥️♥️
I was hoping what you said back in 2016. It would've helped her appeal to more voters in the Rust Belt States (at least Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin). Tim Kaine wasn't as popular as Bernie Sanders or Kamala Harris while she was a senator.
@@joel_anderson_tYES 👍 BERNIE❣ In hindsight, Tim Kaine has value. But I STILL don't know a lot about him. Hillary Clinton's campaign was BADLY Run on so many levels! And it seemed that Bernie was stumping MidWest more than HC or TK‼️ 😫😖
@@joel_anderson_t Tim Kaine continues to be a dust bunny. And neither are that Vance stain. How Trump keeps appealing is appalling because he's worse than anything.
Give it a break already.
Bernie!!!! 💙💙💙 Politico taking criticism too personally. Making me look at Politico sideways. 😒
This interview is the quod erat demonstrandum for Bernie Sanders point about the media.
THANK U BERNIE FOR YOUR TRUTH EVEN THOE HE TRIED TO LEAD YOU
See here's the thing about Bernie Sanders. You sit him on a chair and give him a microphone he is going to say the same. Damn. Things. Every. Time. He has his talking points he manages to work them in and you are seriously deluded if you think you're going to unhook him in any way shape or form from those talking points. He's got a side A and a side B and they're the same. That's the power of the Bern!
👏👍💯
Right! Because the essential problems have NOT changed: campaign finance reform is the #1 thing that can get things changed because representatives will no longer represent their corporate donors' interests but their actual constituents.
The host is so u comfortable that Bernie ain't taking his narrative 😂
This great man of social justice believes that government must be by the people, for the people and from the people not by corporation, from corporations and for corporations and Republicans. Long live Bernie! Thanks!
I still love Bernie
Heart of of gold.💕
Agree with him or not, you're always going to get an honest, genuine answer from him. He's not a phony, narcissistic, opportunist like the vast majority of politicians.
the interviewer was sweating when Bernie was getting his lines out 🤣
It took him awhile to say, YES HE was was in a union at Politico now, finally. And that it brought about protective changes.
I love Bearnie Sanders 💙💙💙 he really cares about the American people!!🎉
Affordable comprehensive universal healthcare.
Agreed, but KIS (keep it simple): universal healthcare for all. 😊
Why “affordable”? I’m fairly sure that America is the only western nation that does NOT have taxpayer-funded universal comprehensive healthcare. The insurance mafia will have fits but it’s long overdue for America to implement universal, comprehensive healthcare and bring America into the civilized western union of nations.
It’s beyond my comprehension as a Canadian that heavy duty health crises like cancer can bankrupt American families. Capitalism built the western countries but it has changed from benevolent to ravenously predatory. Obscene greed is destroying an otherwise civilized society.
Interviewer is awful
Thank you BERNIE! YOU have been key to many of the Democrat's great moves. I see your prints everywhere and really appreciate what you have achieved! Feel the BERN!
Thank you Bernie a lot of people feel the same about President Biden
As a dutch person i understand bernie was never cool enough to be elected by americans.
Merica ignored the smartest guy in the room and voted for the dumbest.
dude so smart and ahead of his time people fear the change for the better.
Remember the meme with Bernie sitting by himself on his own folding chair wearing his Vermont mittens at President Biden’s inauguration? The man is cool in his own way. People asked me to crochet “Bernie in Mittens,” for them, and they came out so cute…just like the Senator.
everyone always wastes bernie's time with stupid questions.
Because these are center-right (pretending to be liberal, and in most cases pretending to be center) corporate owned sites.
Bernie is funny, irascible and so on point. He's the closest thing I can find to a perfect Representative. Not perfect but pretty damned good!
Bernie deserves a more professional interviewer.
Keep moving forward Bernie 👍
Progressive policies are now fully accepted in the Democratic party, and we have Bernie to thank for that. GOAT
ABSOLUTELY! Pure great BERNIE! I LOVE BERNIE! He's moved mountains!
❤
Bernie Sanders is a good man
I love Bernie because his grumpy grandpa demeanor is only outweighed by his charm and empathy for regular people!
lol, this senior citizen has been living on less than $10k/yr for the past 20yrs! of course my house is paid off and i have lived a healthy life, and i grow 90% of my food. i am lucky. soon, i hope to become compost to maintain the fertility of my food forest 🙂
you're lucky to have that health, the property and those skills. Most do not.
@@dahliafully yes many do not but most do and choose to do nothing. its not like i was ever making a lot of money. i just stopped wasting money and focused on the goal and persisted to make it happen. so i live like a monk but at least i live free, mostly 🙂
@@AlsanPine good for you. That's quite the sweeping generalization to say that most have health, property and skills and then do nothing. People face all sorts of challenges that interrupt their lives despite what they do.
And there is no way for a young person to pay off a house at $10k a year. Your generational luck paid off for you to survive like that despite the thrift. I'm glad you recognize that you are lucky.
@@dahliafully of course i never said that you can pay off a house on $10k/yr. i said i can live on that with a paid off house and growing my own food and not wasting money, time, and resources in general. as i dedicated my life to service, i never made much money in my life. i was able to pay off my modest 1 acre property, however. you can call it a sweeping generalization all you want but it is very easy to see how wasteful people are. my most lucky break was being born in a family that encouraged me to learn. i grew up learning how to fix things myself and i never stopped learning. when doctors told me i would not make it past the 80's, i learned about nutrition and herbal medicine and here i am healthier than all the lazy people around me. i am not special at all. i am not particularly smart. i am not endowed with an exceptional body. what i do have is the ability to learn and adjust and find solutions to obstacles. it took time. and yes, it took luck but life is all about what we do with our luck. everyone living in this country is lucky. try living in the congo! i was also lucky to have lived all over the world as my dad worked for the gov and we traveled and lived all over. i appreciated the gifts we have living here. we americans winging about our tough life is very much like trump whining about how unfair his lot is! live well 🙂
This journalist doesnt like Kamala Harris. I can tell because hes asked Bernie a few times suggesting there is a better choice candidate
My son is grateful that he gets free food at school but he says it's not enough ❤
Biden stepping aside without a fuss was an act of love and loyalty for what America is supposed based on the basic concept of liberty and justice for ALL, not some based on skin color or wealth.
End lobbying and corporate oligarchs.
Biden stated in 2020 that he was going to be a one term President.
@@marclawson2536 Thanks for commenting. Be well.
Bernie for ALL people!!❤
Biden has done extremely well both domestically and with our diplomacy.
Well, if you don’t include Ukraine and Israel sure
Bernie Sanders is a wonderful man and understands what it is to be a true American, Thank you!
Notice how Bernie cared what the people had to say but the host just pushed to show how smart he is.. actions speak volumes. Listen to the people out there working it and making it work for you or you will get bad results.
I am not a registered Democrat anymore because they forced out Bernie from 2 primary seasons in 2016 and 2020. Not very Democratic of them. He could have been one of the greatest presidents we ever had and what we need at this time in history. Unforgivable
Lizza is a very poor interviewer.
Thank you, Senator Sanders.
it is a sad statement about MSM that they still don’t treat this man with the respect he deserves - there is always a hint/undertone of “awww isn’t he cute” … Oh well.
It’s disgusting, but these are the people who run our government. They don’t think they don’t even like him just like they don’t like anybody who doesn’t make 1 million bucks. 12:20
Only because he won’t tell you how much it will cost YOU TO PAY FOR IT
Yep.
Respect for Bernie always speaking the truth
