European here. In such times like we are having nowadays, the USA is so much needed of honest, and decent people like you. Thanks for being there, Mr. Sanders.
As a Canadian living in Montréal, 30 minutes from Vermont, I wish you the best for this new coming term. And to all Americans and Vermonters, this man is a national treasure so take good care of him as he takes good care of you.
@@normnorm2743 sorry that you can’t handle the objective truth. He is the senator who has passed the least amount of sponsored bills. But oh yeah, he tells you what you want to hear. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm not a Vermonter, but I'm glad you're staying. You should be enjoying retirement, but here you are, fighting for Americans and democracy. I agree with you 100%.
I’m English.I wish we had 1 politician with as much integrity,honesty,intelligence.humility,empathy,common sense and kindness in our Parliament,as this legend of a man.
@@janwilson9485how dare you compare Corbyn to Sanders. Corbyn supported Serbia in the 90s as they enacted their massacres on civilians while Sanders was adamant in protecting the Muslims of the Balkans. Sanders is the reason my people are alive.
@@Lo51848the whole world! I’m in Canada and I have friends in Europe - we all feel the same. It is a crying shame that y’all didn’t vote for him as president. It would have been a much better decade.
I feel bad that you're not getting a retirement Bernie, but I do understand why. You're too vitally important to the progressive movement and to the country. I wouldn't feel it was morally right to retire under those circumstances either. Thank you so much for your sacrifice for our country.
@@AresTheDragon There are candidates but they’re generations younger, which means they’re also more overtly left on social issues which is a bit of a political liability for now. Bernie was like this in his youth, but as time has gone on he emphasized economics and the issues where he’s got the most popular support. He’s a very savvy politician. I fear we lack people like this
Agree 100%. Someone who has worked SO tirelessly for his constituents certainly deserves a great retirement, so we thank you all the more for your dedication. You are a gem 💎 !
I have been called "stupid" and "naive" for speaking positively about elected Senator Bernie Sanders in the past. Hearing him speak with conviction and focus makes me feel stronger even if others believe that I am stupid for my views of this man.
Thank you, Bernie, for committing your life's work to serving the people of the US! We are so lucky and honored to have you in our fight! Keep up the good work! You are amazing!
I'm not American but it's so gratifying to watch a politician say reasonable things and have a clear ideology and a desire to make their country and the world better for their people!
From India, I must say, thanks for being you Bernie. You stand for the human values we need across the globe. I was in Vermont for a few years and what a place, the Vermonters are lucky to have you. Good luck with everything you are working on.
@@tracesprite6078😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I don’t know what you are smoking, but you should share it with the rest of us. This man hasn’t accomplished a damn thing while being in office, other than making his bank account bigger.
Jesus Bernie! I thought you were gonna retire, i was gonna bust out in tears! Thank God. Thank you Bernie, I cannot take another heartbreak right now. Proud of you Bernie Sanders💗💗🫡
Sadly as a Dutchman I cannot vote for senator Sanders, but I have been continually impressed and awed by the honesty, well-weighed and informed opinions and sheer competence radiating from this man. I watched his appearance on BBC and ZML to promote his latest book and did not need more convincing to buy it. At least that way I supported the honourable senator while informing myself. Politicians come in all shapes and sizes and senator Sanders is one that fits the position of elected official well, yet it is sad that he is rather an exception. In my country, The Netherlands, we too suffer with democratic backsliding and politicians spreading misinformation, lies or claiming ignorance. If only we had such an honest politician to guide us. Thank you for your service, senator! May you find peace in all your accomplishments and remain in office for yet another term.
@@ZeroAlpha1173 True. But he still has his faculties and the only other “young” option (RFK) is another conspiracy theory lunatic. To save our democracy, we HAVE to vote Democrat all down the line. The GOP has become the American Fascist party.
I've voted GOP for decades, but I totally would have voted for Bernie. He's a radical socialist, but he's honest about it and speaks from the heart with conviction. That's worth more that anything.
Great news !!! even though I live in a less free state of Florida ….you are a great heart with a fantastic brain…Vermont and the country need you still 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I was scared he was announcing his resignation and was about to cry. Love you Bernie! Thank YOU from the bottom of our hearts for caring not just about the people of Vermont, but caring about all of us. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank goodness for such a patriotic and level-headed Senator. I don't live in Vermont and am glad that you fight not only for your state but for all Americans.
Senators don't fight for their state. Bernie is literally taking credit for all the actions of local government while he sits on committees for the federal government. What a liar and a phony.
I’m Australian, and highly respect Bernie Saunders as a politician, one of the most sane Senators in the US Senate and a true humanitarian. So glad his message wasn’t that he was going to resign. He has vision, compassion, integrity, and speaks ‘truth’ to power……. a most valuable asset to the Democratic Party. Bless you Bernie for your strength and courage in these difficult times.
I am not residing in Vermont, Bernie, but I believe in you and your goals for our country. We are at the crossroads and it if VERY scary and troublesome...but politicians like you give us hope. I hope you will be re-elected by your constituants and you continue to serve the country for all of us to benefit from your work.
I'm not even American but I watched this because it's always great to hear a politician who actually puts his people's interests above his own. He is one of the few people who keep my faith in a slim chance that we're not 100% doomed yet. Keep up the great work, Senator.
Me, too! I actually wrote his name on my ballot in 2016; the Democrats should have backed him then. I was embarrassed to say I was a Democrat. But when he made that announcement, I yelled, "Yay!" Go Mr. Sanders, even though I don't live in Vermont. 🥰
Honestly, the man DESERVES to retire... but I'm so grateful he's one of the few non-crooked politicians fighting for us. For a moment I was dreading the same thing when I saw the title of this video. We need more like him running and winning, and I hope he can inspire folks to do that.
I'm not American, but I'm a Bernie Sanders fan and I would like him to run for President of the United States, but as a senator he can do a lot for the United States.
I admire Senator Sanders so much. Never been to Vermont but I sure wish we had a Bernie down here in TX! I was watching his speech the night the little bird landed on his podium. What a moment from heaven-all of us needed the hope that sweet bird and Bernie gave us. So fitting that it visited Bernie. I wish you many more years of good health and a strong mind. Your dedication to the good for all is legend!
OMG...you mentioned the bird and I immediately began tearing up. I remember that moment like it was yesterday. I remember the hope and promise of a country I thought was possible, but never believed I would see. Bernie had--and still has--the vision we need. I have never trusted an elected official as much as I trust him and I likely never will. A big part of me wishes I could live in Vermont just know what it feels like to be represented by someone who actually puts the interests of the people front and center consistently.
My car still has the Bernie 2016 bumper sticker. I have the bird sticker I bought as soon as they came out. That was an incredible minute as the bird listened to Bernie’s thoughts! A warm and friendly moment.
I will never forget that bird on the podium, it was from God letting him know He is with him! Bernie is going to live on this earth a long time! God Please keep Blessing Bernie Sanders!
I'm British. My health care costs, including insurance premiums are £0/year. I pay £0 for my asthma medicines. My recent hernia surgery cost me a whopping £0. The number of bankruptcies every year due to health care is 0. That is real freedom, freedom from worry.
Not an American. But now, more than ever before, the world needs more Bernies. People who recognise the challenges the world faces, and have the commitment and integrity to push for what needs to be done to meet those challenges. The fact we were robbed of a President Bernie Sanders in 2016 was a global tragedy.
Thank you,Bernie. We need you! You are one of the few people who are actually serving the American people and not the special interests. I agree…you should’ve been the 2016 nominee. I think we might’ve been able to avoid the catastrophic situation that we find ourselves in
THANK YOU, MR. SANDERS ! I don’t live in Vermont, but I pay $1400/MONTH for my osteoporosis medicine even WITH a Part D supplement (without that it would be $4400/ month. 😮). It may not be considered a life-saving medication , but it can certainly impact one’s health and wellbeing to have spontaneous fractures which can LEAD to loss of life and health. Fractures -> immobility -> illness and death. Thank you for standing up to BIG PHARMA !!! ❤🎉🎉
Every State needs a Bernie Sanders! We need more politicians like him! He genuinely works for the average American! Thank you so much Bernie, for fighting on behind of us the people and not Giant Corporations.
Dear Bernie, if half of us were as active and passionate about human beings and "the big picture" of this beautiful world, it would be such a better place. Thank you for continuing to inspire me and others. Thank you for your bravery and your service. Bless you.
Bernie, I thought you were getting ready to say you were retiring! I'm so relieved you're gonna keep fighting for all of America! Thank you for all you are doing. We will fix this despicable situation. My belief is that good will always conquer evil. A vote for any Republican is clearly evident as a threat to our way of life!
Thank Goodness! I was afraid he was going to say he was retiring...we need him...He has the necessary experience and ability to get necessary things done for the people.
Best news yet....I'm from Oregon, but know you fight for all people. Also you stand up for your beliefs, especially to your own party members. Proud to have working for we the American people. 💯😊
I don't live in Vermont, but my heart sank when you said you had a announcement. Then you said you were running! Thank you, thank you. Thank you for your service, the great state of Vermont can be proud to have you. I wish your clone was here in SC.
From Germany (knowing what a decent health care for everyone looks like), I wish you all the luck and success, the US need you! Thank you for your engagement.
So glad to hear you are going to carry on your good work for ALL THE PEOPLE of our great country. Long and HEALTHY life to you Senator. I live in NC but very much in favor of your sensible approach to policies.
You are an inspiration. Stay strong and keep fighting. Thank you for leading by example and showing what making the US a better place for ALL of our citizens is really about.
I almost had a heart attack thinking Bernie was retiring. I may not be American but I have to thank you, Senator. For continuing to fight for the working-class everyday Americans and being one of the few authentic American politicians. ❤️🤍💙
And me. I'm Canadian. And we are so constantly bombarded by everything American, all day everyday. The Conservative politicians here have sold our whole country to the US, lock, stock, and barrel. So every event there affects us immensely! And we've been going through hell since 2016. The Canadian MAGA has been trying to take over ever since then. So we too need Bernie to be the next president!
I, too, thought he was announcing his retirement and was deeply saddened until I watched his post. I live in Ohio (home of J. D. Vance 🤢🤮) and wish that we had a Bernie Sanders of our own, someone who fulfills their oath to serve THE PEOPLE rather than serving themselves. 💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊
Me too. Thank God he is still running. I just desire the young to come and pick up the mantle. He has the best cognitive brain and critical thinker I have ever met and still does.
Thank goodness. I was scared he was stopping. This kind of politician we need more of. Someone who actually does work for the people, full stop. We lose Bernie, we lose a machine that has been working for last 5 decades for progress. Keep the energy going.
Bernie, you legend. I've been a fan of your bravery, compassion and brass tacks brevity since the 60s. I wasn't even born until '76, but you helped my family prosper and multiply.
When he began with, "Let me thank the people of Vermont from the bottom of my heart for giving me the opportunity to serve in the United States Senate...", I was VERY WORRIED that he might be resigning as Senator. What a relief to find out that he will continue to fight for you and me!
This man is a tireless advocate for all Americans and a true mensch. He continues to serve others in the winter of his life, no one would have judged him if he had announced his retirement, here. We'd selfishly be heartbroken, sure, but there would be no judgement. This man has inspired so many to get involved in politics and has improved so many lives. ❤
Thank you Vermont! IMMEASURABLE thanks, respect & my support continues from me. Bernie, history will show you have tirelessly contributed to the betterment of humanity & an environmental warrior. #1 Human EVERY! Everyday. Thank you Bernie; you da best!!
I'm French, and I just post a comment like yours... Funny how many people not being Americans, like this guy, and wish more like him where on the "driving wheel".
@@kellydalstok8900 I know reality and Bernie ain’t it. Name his major accomplishments, what legislation he got passed that helped the country as a whole. He became a millionaire as a politician all while decrying corporate greed, etc. he’s a hypocrite…
❤ you Bernie!! Thank you from PA for what you do for your state because what you do for Vermont is good for PA and the nation and the world! We ALL NEED YOU!!!
I am so glad you are not throwing in the towel which I was afraid this was going to be your statement. Thank you for your TRUE PATRIOTISM and continuing the fight for ' we the people ' here and abroad. Our country needs you desperately. Speak loud and often Bernie.
Hurray 🎉 If i was in Vermont you'd have my vote sir! All my voting years, i never realized how much impact politicians I couldn't even vote for effected all our life's throughout our entire country both good and bad. Vermot please make this happen, we need more good politicians like Bernie.

From Germany (knowing what a decent health care for everyone looks like), I wish you all the luck and success, the US need you! Thank you for your engagement.
A million thumbs up to you, Senator Sanders. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your still one of the only US politician that takes long covid seriously!, Thank you so much for your help in this uphill battle!
You're
I have it and it's no joke.
@@abeautifuldayful You missed the comma after the exclamation point. Your Karen skills are slipping.
It's a virus, kid. You act like there was never a Swing and Bird flu and a West Nile virus.
@@samsmom1491 - What are you talking about?
Thank you, Bernie. Your voice is so important for the country.
Vermont is lucky to have you.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!
Great news Bernie, thank you. You will always have my support and I strongly believe you are a great American. Rick, WA state - USA😊
Why is this liar pretending a Senator is responsible for anything that happens in Vermont?
As someone from Louisiana whose voice is not heard by my representative or either senator, thank you for all you've done, and all you pledge to do.
So glad to hear you are going to carry on your good work for ALL THE PEOPLE of our great country. Long and HEALTHY life to you Senator. I live in NC but very much in favor of your sensible approach to policies.
You are an inspiration. Stay strong and keep fighting. Thank you for leading by example and showing what making the US a better place for ALL of our citizens is really about.
Great news! One of the most important voices of our times.
Along with the great John R Lewis who sadly passed before he was finished with his important work!
RIP !❤❤❤❤
I almost had a heart attack thinking Bernie was retiring. I may not be American but I have to thank you, Senator. For continuing to fight for the working-class everyday Americans and being one of the few authentic American politicians. ❤️🤍💙
Me, too. 😳 💙💙💙
And me. I'm Canadian. And we are so constantly bombarded by everything American, all day everyday. The Conservative politicians here have sold our whole country to the US, lock, stock, and barrel. So every event there affects us immensely! And we've been going through hell since 2016. The Canadian MAGA has been trying to take over ever since then. So we too need Bernie to be the next president!
I, too, thought he was announcing his retirement and was deeply saddened until I watched his post. I live in Ohio (home of J. D. Vance 🤢🤮) and wish that we had a Bernie Sanders of our own, someone who fulfills their oath to serve THE PEOPLE rather than serving themselves. 💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊
I felt the same way !
Me too. Thank God he is still running. I just desire the young to come and pick up the mantle. He has the best cognitive brain and critical thinker I have ever met and still does.
If I lived in Vermont, I would vote for you ❤
As I’m in VT , I’m happy to do that for you. Please do us the favor and vote BLUE wherever you are!!! 💕
@@ellyningalls9518❤❤
Thank goodness. I was scared he was stopping.
This kind of politician we need more of.
Someone who actually does work for the people, full stop.
We lose Bernie, we lose a machine that has been working for last 5 decades for progress.
Keep the energy going.
Bernie, you legend. I've been a fan of your bravery, compassion and brass tacks brevity since the 60s.
I wasn't even born until '76, but you helped my family prosper and multiply.
America loves you Bernie. Thanks for working so hard for us all.
You are exactly where we need you....AND it is appreciated..... Thank you for your steadfast continuing service to our society.....
THANK YOU. There are a few exceptional people in our country and government. I'm thankful Mr. Sanders, for fighting for me and our country.
If I was an American and a Vermont resident I would vote for you Senator Saunders.
Keep the good work while I am keeping you in my prayers.
When he began with, "Let me thank the people of Vermont from the bottom of my heart for giving me the opportunity to serve in the United States Senate...", I was VERY WORRIED that he might be resigning as Senator. What a relief to find out that he will continue to fight for you and me!
ME TOO!!!
A national treasure, much love from San Diego Mr. Sanders, salud! 🛹
We need you in the White House 🎉🎉 thank you for all the hard work you do for us.
This man is a tireless advocate for all Americans and a true mensch. He continues to serve others in the winter of his life, no one would have judged him if he had announced his retirement, here. We'd selfishly be heartbroken, sure, but there would be no judgement. This man has inspired so many to get involved in politics and has improved so many lives. ❤
Thank you Vermont! IMMEASURABLE thanks, respect & my support continues from me. Bernie, history will show you have tirelessly contributed to the betterment of humanity & an environmental warrior. #1 Human EVERY! Everyday. Thank you Bernie; you da best!!
Dutchie here happy to see not all of the US is brainwashed :) This man makes the most sense from an EU perspective. Go Bernie go!!
I'm French, and I just post a comment like yours... Funny how many people not being Americans, like this guy, and wish more like him where on the "driving wheel".
If you support the EU you are part of the problem, not the solution. You must love big government…
@@1BobsYourUncle You know nothing Bob
@@kellydalstok8900 I know reality and Bernie ain’t it. Name his major accomplishments, what legislation he got passed that helped the country as a whole. He became a millionaire as a politician all while decrying corporate greed, etc. he’s a hypocrite…
@@1BobsYourUnclelmfao get lost. Sincerely, an American who understands things.
❤ you Bernie!! Thank you from PA for what you do for your state because what you do for Vermont is good for PA and the nation and the world! We ALL NEED YOU!!!
Bernie Sanders is the voice of reason and sanity. We are lucky to have him.
We just need a hundred more like him.
Hearing voices?
@@benstone5650 who are you talking to about what
You're wrong
@@ifthen1526 are you really that bored with life did you want to play word games. About what am I wrong. Besides even wondering
Love you Bernie. You fight for us and every everyday Americans. Of course I will vote you in again
From Australia, thanks Bernie for being willing to go around again. The USA needs more like you.
I’m not American but your public presence and words help me as well. Thank you for your dedication, strong sane beliefs.
I am so glad you are not throwing in the towel which I was afraid this was going to be your statement. Thank you for your TRUE PATRIOTISM and continuing the fight for ' we the people ' here and abroad. Our country needs you desperately. Speak loud and often Bernie.
Me too!
Hurray 🎉 If i was in Vermont you'd have my vote sir!
All my voting years, i never realized how much impact politicians I couldn't even vote for effected all our life's throughout our entire country both good and bad.
Vermot please make this happen, we need more good politicians like Bernie.
That scared me too! Thanking you for staying with we the people❤️
