Famous Bernie Sanders Quotes

“If you want to run for the United States Senate, you hire a consultant who will do polling for you, who will tell you the kinds of television ads you should run, who will tell you that most of the money you raise has got to go into TV.

If somebody is going to work that person has got to receive at least a wage that they can go out and live with dignity on. That's an extremely important point.”
