- People want change. The question is: What kind of change will it be? Will it be a change dominated by the wealthy and the powerful? Or will it be a change that creates a more just and democratic society, based on solidarity and compassion?
Bernie sanders is and has been a source of hope for this country.
Want the truth about Bernie? He does nothing. On purpose. He submits intentionally over the top bills KNOWING THEY WILL NEVER PASS so he can continue his Incessantly Childish campaign of who he can stab in the back next. He’s INTENTIONALLY IRRELEVANT AND YOU SUPPORT NOTHING.
The hope is dependent on us, the people. When do we the people act?
God Bless Bernie Sanders, a truly great human being!
Indeed!
I know the feeling. It makes me sad that he will disappoint you. Don’t trust any politician sweet girl. Have hope in yourself and don’t let this disgusting traitor mislead you.
Sanders is the voice of real America.
You're not only loved in the U.S., you're loved around the world Bernie!
Thank you Senator for educating so many of the young voters they get it to the younger voters who get it you can save America. Thank you all.

Greetings from Norway! I wish Bernie was President :(
he said he doesn't know if he is going to run again, I'm wondering if maybe he will team up with rfk jr, and biden is going to back out in june sometime, rand paul has some great stuff also 🤔☕ he ran in 2016 🇺🇸
i can almost see it now "kennedy - sanders 24" ticket, we the people for independent america 🇺🇸 and the other 99 percent, besides "the golden handcuffs" ☕
Bernie is the best president in America never had he’s just with the doctor ordered thank you Bernie. We love you Bernie.❤️
I just imagine Bernie Sanders as president rather than the current president, or the past several presidents, what a better country and world this would be.
Bernie would have mopped the floor with donald trump in twenty sixteen. But the d n c thought that hillary clinton was the answer.
He could have been. Instead he chose to lead all the kind people who believed in him into voting for the dirty liars that had just rigged an election against him.

Alas, the DNC didn't want that to happen.
I don't like that he uses the myth of "your taxdollars"
He knows that's not how the US dollar works and also it perpetuates the wrong idea. The US economy is absolutely gigantic, so huge that from the perspective of a worker it might as well be infinite. As long as we stay reasonable we can afford anything, the real question is rather or not we should. The US could build an air tight wall around itself but should it? The US can make all gasoline be completely free but should it? The US can give free healthcare to everyone but should it?
Unless you're deliberately saying stupid stuff to waste money you can pretty much completely ignore the question of "can we afford it?". In a developed economy like the US or Europe when it comes to people's welfare money is simply not a limitation. The US can give everyone a high standard of living and still have plenty left over.
The poverty is the result of policy choices, not lack of means. If you make sure everyone has a good standard of living it becomes a lot harder to exploit people cause they will just quit their job if their boss is a jerk to them. It's harder to manipulate them as they have more time to do research and they no longer have as much anxiety to prey upon. Having more wealth with average people also makes it possible for them to ban together and fiscally overpower the capitalists.
Creating a higher standard of living won't mean the elite will have a lower standard of living. They can keep all their material luxuries quite easily but it will significantly reduce their power. The elite wants power, quite often even at the expense of their own happiness. Examples that come to mind are Donald Trump and Elon Musk who have an insatiable lust for power but are both incredibly miserable with their lives.
I'm not sure about the future, but Bernie sanders is and has been a source of hope for this country. A true national father. I treasure and 💚 Bernie sanders.
Thank You Senator Bernie Sanders! 🇺🇸🗽💙
Bernie, you are amazing, thank you🙏🙏🙏 for speaking out. We love you ❤️
We love & adore you, Bernie!! You’re the best! Thank you for working so hard to protect America & our democracy!
🗽💙💙🇺🇸🗳️🇺🇸💙💙🗽
This man told you to vote for people who just rigged an election!! Gave his working class donor’s money to them too!
Bernie you are a good men💖🏹🙏🕊🌬🕊🙏
His vitality and eloquence speak for themselves
Money-in-Politics is The Cause;
Everything else is a Symptom.
Love you, Bernie, and all the issues you've brought to the forefront. Democracy for the people and not the powerful richest.🔥💚💙👍🏻👍👍🏽👍🏿
Love this man Ty always working for the regular man and woman..
Senator Bernie Sanders , God Blesses You
Former Vermonter here, we’re rooting for you still. Even here in Ohio.
And from northern Minnesota as well!
Thank you so much, Bernie, for your tireless fight for equality, a living wage, the working class...and for inspiring millions of #NotMeUs!
Go wash your mouth out with soap.
Bernie, the first time I heard of your name and heard you speak was in a video in early 2015 from a university classroom in Texas, talking to students... I have never forgotten what you said. "The problems that we face did not come down from the heavens. They are made by bad human decisions, and good human decisions can change them." I had always been politically inactive and jaded, but like a light bulb going off I understood our problems to be an issue of organizing our society better, and fighting the everpresent problem of legalized bribery a.k.a financial corruption sapping the political will to do better for American citizens.
After you announced in early 2015, I signed up to volunteer for your campaign and thought of it as a serious commitment akin to having enlisted in the Air Force at a younger age. You were at 3% in the national polls at the beginning, then we ignited the Summer of Sanders! I was a supervolunteer and Democratic convention delegate for you. I wish we were currently in Year 7 of a Sanders Presidency and I think about this often. Bless you for fighting the good fight every day and for using your Senate Committee gavel well.
Democracy in America died in the Supreme Court chambers in 1976, Buckley v Valeo, when value-bearing money became "Free Speech" for corporations to control all publicly elected seats in our government.
I think out of all the Politician's in America, that Bernie has the best intentions for America... 🤔🙂👍
Yeah intentions to dupe people who trust him.
@@brookehunsaker1875 what's your angle? You've replied negatively to multiple comments. What makes you distrust Bernie and his intentions? Not looking for any kind of debate, just interested in your perspective on the American political condition and Bernie's place in it.
@@nathantan752 Don’t worry. Happy to discuss. Bernie had everyone’s attention in 2016 and unbelievable support. What he did with that was to lead an entire generation into supporting the two party system that he knew to be corrupt and a party that has openly rigged a primary election against the people. It was out of alignment with his own stated principles.
I could add more to that but he betrayed us and anyone who called it out was slandered and excommunicated from the left. Now, he’s misleading people again. He’s refused to address the Palestine issue for years knowing full well what’s going on.
To be fair, his focus has never been on foreign policy. However, what is being left out is the speech mandates that they are implementing here. He’s helping to pacify people while those are in the process of being made enforceable and doesn’t mention them. He’s also not addressing 4th amendment changes that specifically effect American citizens. I see him clearly now and what he’s doing is dangerous.
@@nathantan752 Anyway, it’s nothing against people who still support him. I agree with his words too. If it’s hard to see now or I seem too harsh, you will see with more time.
@@brookehunsaker1875 I still don’t understand where you’re coming from. I am generally more radical than Bernie, and find issue with his lack of conviction in creating revolutionary change (although I appreciate the efforts he has made). I don’t fault him for operating within the liberal capitalist governmental system, nor for working with the Democratic party. Please don’t speak condescendingly to me without providing your criticisms of him like I had kindly asked. You have yet to provide any reason for me to believe you have an organized principled disagreement with Bernie. I genuinely want to understand - air your criticisms.
I love you, and thank you, Bernie!❤❤❤❤❤
No politician ever inspired me like Bernie. I love you Bernie! Vote blue!💙
Democracy has become a mockery.
Bernie is "woke."
Thank you Bernie!
Vote blue? What does that have to do with Bernie? The closest to Bernie is Green!
Vote blue? Seriously? Look at what the Democrats did to this amazing upstanding and honorable man! I am weary of voting for a horrible guy because the other guy is worse!
Thank you Bernie . Us old Brooklynite need to stick together . I moved from Brooklyn to Tennessee . I will always be a Brooklynite forever my heart always lives in Brooklyn .
Ban all golden parachutes, or sue your Board, Stakeholders.
Yes, Corporate GREED is the problem!
The problem is the broken election funding system that allows corporations and even foreign nationals (read : Aipac) to buy our elections. Greed has always been around and ain't going anywhere.
The only solution is a constitutional amendment limiting campaing donations to individuals with a yearly cap and allowing public financing of elections. Of course at this point this can only happen through a grass roots effort.
Windfall tax, at the bare minimum.
Thank you Bernie for speaking truth to those who have been propagandized into self centered misunderstandings.
"Stand for JUSTICE, not BIG MONEY". Those who have the Privilege of Intelligence must learn that pursuing a Life of Service is a greater goal that pursuing a Life of Greed. Thank you senator for who you are and all you do for us.
I like what Bernie said to one of the students at the end of the discussion. When the student acknowledged that he and most of his classmates come from money Bernie suggested that even though most of them will probably go for high paying jobs, he wanted them not to forget about the working class as well.
Thank you for such an in depth discussion. 👍
Thank you Senator
Snarky Bernie is the best Bernie.
Outstanding delivery and questions
LOVE AND UNENDING RESPECT FOR SENATOR SANDERS! ❤❤👏👏👏⚘
Great Bernie Sanders!! always as you are
You sir are my favorite old disgruntled man, Larry David comes at a close second.
am going to help Bernie...always~
🙋♀️Bernie Sanders 💖
Bernie is 10X more coherent than the other candidates. C'mon, let's see a presidential run!
he's lost twice. Forget it.
@@obinator9065The DNC.
Stole it from him in the last two elections. What would really be nice is if kamala harris would step down as vice and allow Bernie. to step in.
@@obinator9065Cheated twice. 😢
They’re clearly never going to allow him.
Who is the they?
Bernie, MVP. ❤
Love Bernie, we the people were cheated out of a fantastic president in 2016.
You know?
He's fallen on his sword twice
And been assassinated once for the party he loves.
And the people he wanted to work for.
I'd love to see Bernie wipe the floor or ring with Trump.
It'd be a good old fashioned bloodbath
Yup, right with you!
You're absolutely correct!!!
I'm out of the USA, but I think Bernie Sanders is the hope for the USA.
Simply a great man !
What a brilliant genius man!🎆
💙Bernie💙
I have been a Bernie. bro since he tried to take the democratic nomination In 2015 and Hillary threw him under the bus. And all my Republican friends call me a Communist back then,
Because I supported Ber😅nie.
It was the DNC as a whole but especially Debbie Wasserman Schulz who threw him under the bus. Because she’s BFF with HRC
Thank you, senator bernie s anders, for all you do ❤
What a decent and honest human being you are Bernie!! I always wished that YOU were our president since I’ve first known about you ❤
Thank you Bernie for everything you do & have done!!
This man. I hope he never dies. ‘Cause if he does there will be such an enormous hole in the American Body Politic that I don’t think we’ll be able to fill for another generation. And I love the last 10-15 min where he tackles the whole “why should I vote for Biden” question many young people have today. I was just having this discussion with my own college aged kid not an hour before I found this video! I said much the same as Bernie but of course he said it better and with more power and a greater grasp of the stakes. 😉🙏🏻
We are watching what America could have been.
Love Sanders! Yet WE DO LIVE IN AN OLIGARCHY. Name ONE poor president. I'll wait...
Even worse are the congress people who come out with exponentially more wealth.
Name one poor congress person!
@@sylviagoodman6008 Like Gaetz seat which was his father's and before him his grandfather's...just handed down like Kings of Europe.
I'll name one out of backwoods of Kentucky that self educated his way up in class , tall guy tall hat
@@agentorange81 Lincoln was a senator and a land owner, NOT a poor man.
Thank you for telling it like it is Senator Sanders!
His vision influences Biden Administration . A tribute to both Bernie and Biden. Bernie makes us all proud. Unfailing clear vision .
Senator Sanders: Time for outrage in an UNEQUAL & UNFAIR Society, and COURAGE personified in politics.
Media Is Controlling Thinking Of People , Thank you Respectable And Honorable Senator Mr Bernie Sanders , God is Blessing You And More People Like You .
Thank you Senator Bernie. A singular, clear, studied voice pointing the way forward 🇺🇸
Wow that was good 🫡
Well done, senator Sanders!
I wish he was running for President. He is great.
He has no path to win!
love this man.

Thank you, Bernie! I share your perspectives and priorities, and always have. It is such a tragedy that our political system is so beholding to Big Money that you've never had a viable shot at the Oval Office. I sincerely believe that the entire world would be so much better off right now if you had been given that opportunity.
As somebody from scandinavia even we are starting to struggle in the rich-poor setting and keeping things fair for everyone. But obviously it's not even worth talking about when compared to how things are in the US. It's remarkable how many issues Bernie has to tackle and battle in his daily life but he still keeps cool, calm and collected. I respect him very much. EU desperately needs help from US right now with Putin but I understand your own country comes first and the problems are already overflowing. So instead of wishing help for UA, I wish that more people adapt to Bernies way of thinking and US becomes a good place to live for everyone. Wish you all the best. Let's hope there is light at the end of the tunnel.
The people, united, must never be divided by relijis 💩tin/qanon Pro-Authoritarian Billionaire-backed Anti-Democratic, Anti-American propaganda, regurgitated around the world 🌎 by the Far Reich, all funded by the top 1%. We need a Democratic Trifecta; Super majorities in House, Senate, & Presidency ❤Blue 🌊. 😊
It’s absolutely worth talking about. You must talk about it before it’s too late.
It’s too late in the US and Canada and UK, sadly.
I’m blown away that more politicians aren’t talking about this more. (I know why, but it makes me angrier than almost anything else)
You do know the reason. It would destroy their income stream!
It’s also why they all leave the chambers when he speaks.
How I wish Bernie was our candidate.
Very good, Thank you
I from India deeply likes the ideas of Bernie Sanders
Absolutely outstanding event!
I thought the students had very good questions, and the interviewer did a good job.
Thank you all very much
💙💙👍💙💙
Vote Blue 💙 💙 💙
Vote for democracy 💙💙💙
Vote for Women's rights 💙💙💙
Excellent presentation. Go Bernie go!
There is a fine line between capitalism and democracy and our foreign policy leans to one over the other.
Kissinger introduced China to capitalism and our South American policies show which ideology has been the winning. Capitalism today breeds these oligarchs across the planet.
Go Bernie!
Finally wisdom ,honesty on Politics to inspire the educated young generation of this country to become the líderes we need to regain the trust and respect of the world for their country!Congratulations Mr Sanders!
Thank you Senator Bernie Sanders, I want more Senators voice out issues and point out the same tone at this election cycle. I am retired, thanks to SS, Medicare, and low income housing project of Honolulu County, I manage my small life. However, Young people are having low wage reduced working opportunities, post Covid era has negative impact on their professional opportunities. Especially, single mothers with pre-schooling age children are having all society ills. They have to pay or work for less and less time (part time) to accommodate child care. National and local level support for child care to help single mothers today, is most necessary social program. My daughter lost her job, and in-between jobs, cannot afford COBRA health insurance for her and for her child. They are going through winter without seeing doctors for their cold often. Thank Lord they are healthy enough, but it is amazing that this country's healthcare system does not cover the most basic medical plan for single mothers who is on unemployment.
Thank you, Harvard!.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you are one of those great leaders of our land foundation on the American constitutionAnd we all will back you up
Lots of good information from a true and trusted source.
Dear Bernie, I hope you run for office this year. You would win the Democratic vote.
Sanders for President of the United States 2024.
Sanders/Raskins 2024
All of America would be richer folliwing Mr. Sanders direction
I liked this forum. Senator Sanders is a good man, fighting an uphill battle. But he keeps pushing in the correct side of humanity.
This has been happening for decades. People have been too busy watching sports and reality tv to understand.
Thank you you’re great
I watch all bernie videos
I'd believe you if you could elaborate more of why you do.
God Bless this man . The ONLY man with balls in government .
Mr Sanders, as I'm getting older, I'm starting to understand your political viewpoints. There is far too much greed in the system. i've actually given up chasing any type of wealth and trying to do homestead. Not from a fear of governments just from being fed up with understanding how much money controls our government. I'm not an American citizen I'm a Canadian but we share a similar corruption within our institutions, and I value your efforts. Thank you
As the greedy get greedier, the needy get needier.
And sometimes people in politics don't realize that many of us in academia are also struggling because adjunct faculty don't make a living wage either!
Bernie your the greatest! . . . You're a national treasure. . . . Sanders is the real voice of America. . . He's a source of hope for our courtly. . . We love you President Sanders! Every time Bernie makes a speech, they record it and put it on RUclips and immediately you get the same avalanche of comments that look like they were generated by a robot.
This is who should be president! This lecture is at Harvard and while there will be a lot of 'tsk!tsk!' and 'OMGs' heard by those in attendance, but if they are sitting at Harvard, they've got money! It takes a lot to go to Harvard. In the meantime we'll continue our lives as usual, and for those who do feel empathy it will be short lived. We don't want to think about what Bernie is talking about. He's giving us a warning. What will we do!?
You might be surprised how much scholarship money there is. Yes, many are rich. But many don’t pay even close to full tuition.
How does Bernie not have 1 million subs?
We are already living in a dystopian society.
I so wish you were president of our country. But the power of money prevented that.
Oh Bernie you’re Heaven Sent
Thank you Bernie for all you do. I hope the federal government took the time to expand FEMA and other help because spring is making it look like we could be in for another banner year of excessive damages.
As a matter of simple fact: The rich are perniciously misallocated carbon footprints engaging in pecuniary gluttony... And we're on the cusp of a massive climate catastrophe.
Thank you Bernie Sanders for everything you do. YOU'RE WONDERFUL!!!
We only have one Bernie Sanders
This is Times Of Magnitude Regarding Israel And Palestine , Right To Defend Protest And Freedom Of Speech to Stop Horrific And Deplorable Actions Going Against Palestinian People , United States Constitution Is Wonderful And Must Be Defended .
I wish he was right about Canada. But nearly 15-20% of people don’t even have a doctor. You don’t get to choose. And wait lists for specialists are years unless you’re dying. Preventative care is nearly non-existent. And it’s quickly moving toward a privatized or hybrid system that will only make it more inequitable.
Mr. Sanders, I can agree with you on how atrocious it is that the United States has to fund several wars all over the world. I might even sympathize with the notion that we don’t have enough doctors, nurses, and dentists among other professions to support an aging population. I never wanted to be in massive debt so the thought of going to college without a plan scared me. The only reason I went to college was for getting a full academic scholarship for an essay contest in 2004. I have experienced my share of debt and paying bills in monthly increments, but I don’t think total forgiveness is possible for student loans, for example, without writing off a lot of money as bad debt in an accounting ledger.
