  • Bernie Sanders' accent, explained

    Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump both speak with a New York City accent. And Queens College linguist Michael Newman thinks it might be good for their brand. Writing in the New York Times, he said:
    "Americans have come to associate New Yorkers, and so New York accents, with saying what you mean, intense emotional talk and not worrying too much about whom you offend."
    But the larger pattern outside this year's presidential race is that the New York City accent is stigmatized, and its most distinctive features are fading.
    That's why Bernie Sanders provides such an interesting case study. He was born in 1941 and raised in a lower-middle-class household in a Jewish part of Brooklyn. Even though he's now spent more of his life in Vermont than in New York, his voice tells a story of his past and the past of the nation's greatest city.

      @Nick Arjomand the DNC also admitted they rigged the 2016 primary and a federal court ruled they are ALLOWED to select their own candidate. But that completely defeats the democratic process which is the entire point and why so many voters become fatigued and ambivalent.

And if you’re local accents less pronounced it’s probably gonna be even less pronounced by your kids especially nowadays with kids hearing accents from all over the country and world from an early age.

      Not true.
      Olof Palme, the Swedish social democrat who is regarded as one of the founders of the Nordic model, was born into an upper-middle class home. He just saw that social democracy was a fairer system and he spoke up about it. It's a question of ethics, not a question of "Hey, that guy has more than me!"

      What a retarded comment. The nordic model is a fundamentally flawed and failing system. How is stealing money away from hardworking people and subsidizing laziness "fair"?
      Liberal policies punishes success and rewards failure.

      Rishi Kaufman FDR is closer to an Obama type. Firstly, many things in the new deal were actually made by people further left politically than him (he was more of a center-left person), just like how govt. healthcare was made largely by Bernie types. Also, both led us out of recessions.

    Trump is from Queens, and his accent is just as rough around the edges as Bernie's NY accent. Brooklyn and Queens are both very similar. They said it's more common among working class, but really, it's common among all types of people if they're originally from the boroughs.

    I love the way those videos are made, the music is good, and we can feel there's a lot of work behind it. It's nicely done, and designed to keep you hooked (in the good way) and entertained by all of these different schemes. I'm not saying that i understand everything is this video, but it's really pleasant to watch. Ah, and off course the splendid women speaking make this video even better!
