★ About Bernie:
Bernie Sanders is a Democratic candidate for President of the United States. He is serving his second term in the U.S. Senate after winning re-election in 2012 with 71 percent of the vote. Sanders previously served as mayor of Vermont’s largest city for eight years before defeating an incumbent Republican to be the sole congressperson for the state in the U.S. House of Representatives. He lives in Burlington, Vermont with his wife Jane and has four children and seven grandchildren.
Bernard “Bernie” Sanders was born in Brooklyn, New York, to immigrant parents and grew up in a small, rent-controlled apartment. His father came to the United States from Poland at the age of 17 without much money or a formal education. While attending the University of Chicago, a 20-year-old Sanders led students in a multi-week sit-in to oppose segregation in off-campus housing owned by the university as a Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) officer. In August of 1963, Sanders took an overnight bus as an organizer for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee to hear Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic “I Have a Dream” speech firsthand at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
After graduation, Bernie moved to Vermont where he worked as a carpenter and documentary filmmaker. In 1981, he was elected as mayor of Burlington as an Independent by a mere 10 votes, shocking the city’s political establishment by defeating a six-term, local machine mayor. In 1983, Bernie was re-elected by a 21 point margin with a record amount of voter turnout. Under his administration, the city made major strides in affordable housing, progressive taxation, environmental protection, child care, women’s rights, youth programs and the arts. In 1990, Sanders was elected to the House of Representatives as the first Independent in 40 years and joined the Democratic caucus. He was re-elected for eight terms, during which he voted against the deregulation of Wall Street, the Patriot Act, and the invasion of Iraq.
In 2006, Sanders defeated the richest man in Vermont to win a seat in the U.S. Senate as an Independent. Known as a “practical and successful legislator,” Sanders served as chairman of the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs where he authored and passed the most significant veteran health care reform bill in recent history. While in the Senate, Sanders has fought tirelessly for working class Americans against the influence of big money in politics. In 2010, he gave an eight-and-a-half hour filibuster-like speech on the Senate floor in opposition to extending Bush-era tax breaks for the wealthy. In 2015, the Democratic leadership tapped Bernie to serve as the caucus’ ranking member of the Senate Budget Committee.
Known for his consistency on the issues, Senator Sanders has supported the working class, women, communities of color, and the LGBT community throughout his career. He is an advocate for the environment, unions, and immigrants. He voted against Keystone XL, opposes the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal, wants to expand the Voting Rights Act, and pass the Equal Rights Amendment.

@Steven Prime I don't get why American People get worked up, because of people having sex at 16 years old. That's literally the age women are physically built to start doing it. It's their thing wheter they do it or not. It almost seems like you get your morals from the laws and not from critically thinking about it. Why are people called pedos for advocating for teens having sex. They dont want to have sex with them, they want to legalize something they are probably doing anyways.

@@sofa7219 and like all conservatives, you go about judging someone and shunning them even though you have no idea what they've been through, and are going through now Conservatives love to say that liberals live in a fantasy land, the opposite is true , conservatives believe that America is a perfect meritocracy, they praise rich people as hardworkers and job creators, even if they inherited that wealth and are automating and outsourcing jobs. They shun and rebuke poor people as lazy welfare leeches who don't contribute, even if it is a single mom with 3 jobs struggling to pay rent and raise her kids, conservatives live in a fantasy land, liberals live in the reality that the country is far from perfect and needs fixing

[@sofa7219]

But millions of dollars is still actually a crazy amount of money and it's depressing that we at this point have to argue that such amounts of money are small for one person to have.

[@azure9809]

If you're getting your political news from mainstream media, you're wrong. One of Hillary Clintons biggest supporters is time Warner who owns CNN. They keep as many facts about Bernie away from their viewers as possible. This is why we are standing up and fighting against these large corporations. It's a rigged economy and we're almost to the point where elections are controlled largely by the media/large corporations. The media has a lot of power over the minds of America because people still have that small bit of hope that CNN is an honest unbiased news source. Almost every single mainstream media corporation is trying to prevent Bernie from winning, to include the newspapers.

+Peter Spalthoff This is what gets me about people who say "free higher education isn't possible in the USA." It's so funny that the concept is so underwhelming abroad -- cause it's totally doable! I think it's important that all of us in The States look to our global community for guidance on occasion. This "we're better than everyone" mentality has no place in an ever-shrinking world/global economy.

[@SuperToughnut]

If the people keep the spirit of Bernie's campaign alive after the primaries are over, then we all win. He may not end up being the Democratic nominee, but he can still be a strong representative for the people of this nation. He's in our blood now. We need keep this progressive pressure on government leaders and this that are leading the government to the right.

[@yizhang7293]

People never realize how much they should cherish something until they lose it. And then they regret and feel ashamed.

[@roncv26]

"People, through this campaign, are sensing that they are not alone.". Powerful stuff.

[@88omair]

+Ron Smith That's the most poignant point. We want to feel like we have the support of people around us. And Bernie's campaign is all about standing together.

[@roncv26]

Omair Sheikh Exactly, that's why they use the Not Me, Us, I guess.

[@none4530]

This is so calming, peaceful, and lovely. Please show this to people. Spread it around, show it to classmates, send it to colleagues, broadcast it to friends, but please spread the love of this

[@D00NBU66Y]

People saw this and Hilary somehow beat him? Don’t act like politics aren’t rigged. If he doesn’t win this time, it’s all over for us.

[@georgerekhviashvili7008]

Lol

[@sherylF5610]

Things are just getting started.

[@nikasukiashvili2622]

Unfortunately American nation has to either choose between Donald "Only Rosie O'Donnell" Trump and Joe "You ain't black" Biden

[@timothyrogers5810]

Just seeing this revelatory ad today. What a beautiful, heartwarming thing to hear of some of Bernie's accomplishments/history for the first time. If this man does not become our next President, there is absolutely positively NO justice in this world!

[@Bryan-lu4du]

One of the best interviews with Bernie I've seen. Please forward this to all of your friends and especially ones living in NY. He is such a good person.

[@ErikGoff]

Many people in The Netherlands also support Bernie ! Go for it USA!

[@redvelvetsprinkles]

My most favorite campaign video. I began crying. So personal. So authentic. So presidential. #feelthebern #bernie2016

[@chelsealong5191]

This guy deserved to be president. America needs him as president.

[@josefstalin3394]

As you wish

[@yammmit]

justinian1962 why not?

[@lordfabulous6198]

@justinian1962 I love how you think our divided capitalist nation could ever or would ever agree to them itself into an authoritarian government, let alone communist. That would require the military going on board with it in eliminating the other members of congress that don't agree. That simply can't be accomplished in the modern world.

[@lordfabulous6198]

@justinian1962 you definitely sound paranoid, and likely have tons of guns in your house that you never use, and think spending more money than the entire world combined on the military is considered a "good idea". I can respect being prepared when it's reasonable, but any further I do not. No one has given me a good enough argument against supporting Bernie Sanders. There's just not enough wrong with what he wants. I mean, how can you argue against making insulin actually affordable like the rest of the world? What about trying to create a better environment? A lot of what he is proposing is considered "radical" or "socialist" when in truth it's just what's already been implemented throughout modern Europe. We aren't electing dictators, and there's not enough to make any leader able to turn our country into an authoritarian government. It just won't happen, it's not possible unless our culture actually shifts on itself. Same issue with removing guns, that won't happen. Any extreme policy he'll try and implement that isn't agreed on, he'll simply be forced to compromise. I can see him doing that, because he's so passionate about his views that he'll do whatever he possibly can to make it implemented, even if compromises must be made. He has passion to his ideals, and has been consistent with them for decades. A good debater, and knows the right decisions for war issues (he literally predicted the outcome of the Iraq war) and knows what's actually important for our nation, itself, and the success for it. When our nation fixes itself, THAN we can help the world. It shouldn't be the other way around like us helping Israel despite them not giving a shit about us.

[@trevorvanloon1125]

Lets make this thing go VIRAL so all Americans can have tears welling up in the edges of their eyeballs. Peace and Love! #FeelTheBern

[@LewugaBenson]

Mark Buffalo said when he thinks of Bernie that, "all my ideals as a young person can actually grow up with me" dude, that's what I feel when I think of Bernie as well!!

[@johnmadison3472]

This the decency and humility America needs, and dare I say love.

[@plotlinevideo3719]

The idealism of our youth doesn’t have to die, it can be real! Bernie 2020!

[@Wolf9030]

As an immigrant father of 3 American born children this video had me in tears. This man is the definition of the American Dream

[@craigd8922]

It took us 30 years to catch up to you Bernie but we are here now!

[@88omair]

+Craig D I get teary eyed when I see him passionately sharing his points in front of an empty congress, and compare that to decades later, talking in front of tens of thousands of people. Thank you Bernie for sticking it out for this long. We're here for you now.

[@craigd8922]

[@craigd8922]

Omair Sheikh Well said!

[@eedleate]

Bernie's campaign ads can't be beaten. Because they're filled with honesty. Loving the mini-documentaries with all the folks from different walks of life.

[@MoneyOverFame]

Bernie your legacy will never be forgotten.

[@shadowfax6226]

From the UK and support Bernie!

[@yehiaalshehri1006]

we support him and we're from Saudi Arabia!

[@Drivebymumble]

+Feroz ShadowFax Omg imagine a Bernie and Corbyn period. I truly think the world would end up a better place.

[@shadowfax6226]

Tony Benn (RIP) was more democratic socialist and similiar to Bernie.

[@Drivebymumble]

Feroz ShadowFax It's a damn shame but all other options scare me too much, and unfortunately Greens really do have no chance, the public just isn't quite there. I hate how under the table our corruption is in comparison to America. Did you know our taxes our being used to evict Papa New Guineans and privatise electricity in Africa? The Tories and their disgusting use of foreign aid.

[@shadowfax6226]

+Zalx Its not just that its the quality of our elected representatives - MPs - most of them are completely uneducated, unimaginative and uncommitted. Especially the cuts and how the bureaucracy has been managed with health care and education its atrocious

[@Supernaturlisch]

I'm, like, crying right now

[@austinknudsen2747]

You know someone is consistent when I clicked on this video thinking it was a 2020 ad

[@ratnakumar23679]

I had the same feeling... Felt very nice that few people are the same till their last breadth.... If many people could understand and realise the truth,earth would be an awesome place to live...

[@sherylF5610]

Me too

[@alanmcoll101]

Such a humble decent person. And I mean both of them.

[@erNomic]

Ya I love this guy.

[@malou6472]

Love and support from belgium!!

[@LeNaSmileyStar]

Vids like this makes me trust in the good of politicians and human kind again. I'm not a very religious person, but I pray that Bernie will be PoTUS in 2020. The World needs this. We all really do, no mather nationality. Kudos to Mark Ruffalo

[@bishnugaire20]

As a son of a immigrant living in uk this guys inspire me to go back to my country and actually build a community with his ideas and principle. (I love uk but it's already been built.)

[@PerthTowne]

+bishnu gaire Good luck to you!

[@PerthTowne]

This is an incredible campaign ad. They ought to buy five minutes of time on all the New York TV stations tonight and run it--all five minutes of it. What a way to introduce people to Bernie. Nothing but respect for this man.

[@thomasmackelly7685]

+Samwise the Brave The "Greatest Generation" was lead under FDR. Not exactly a reagan capitalist. Never forget that.

[@flagermusen]

+Samwise the Brave Oh you mean like how the Fire department doesn't work? Or how the roads, infrastructure, plumbing and wastewater plants don't work? Those are all socialized projects. You could also take a look at Northern Europe in particular, some of the best functioning societies on the planet, with some of the highest standards of living with the most happy and well educated populations, and they have both socialized healthcare and socialized higher education. They work just great, in fact they play way less for their healthcare than the US does per capita. How is that for efficient?

[@Cerulean_Frost]

+Joe Blues To be fair we in Sweden have big problems with.. Most social stuff really.. But it comes down to all the babyboomers retirering, we don't have enough people to fill the vacancies.

[@heha9752]

I’m applying to City College, and Brooklyn College to study Journalism. I want to make the world better, and make people aware of all the injustices in society. So that way, I hope more people can support Bernie Sanders, because they are more aware of the world.

[@LaPotraBellaca]

I could listen to Bernie talk all day

[@MrJc9600]

People who think Bernie did "nothing" during his career need to see this video.

[@Demiurge66]

Damn I just came from the gym and at subway watching this and I'm tearing up.. Again. I'm 23, going to register and vote for the first time for the California primary. I never believed in politics but this man is the one.

[@paxcallow]

i haven't seen this until today. this is beautiful.

[@brentshowers741]

This ad gives me hope and I can't help but tear up for my nation. I think for many of us we haven't felt any form of patriotism for our country in a long time. Now is the time. Or we die trying. I pledge my life and my sacred honor to the revolution. I'm a college graduate who will be running for governor of Michigan in the next couple of years. It's time to make the dream a reality

[@ajakia7891]

Real as you can get. #BernieInBrooklyn

[@kamran5461]

This is such a real conversation. So inspiring.

[@dani4ever]

+kamran5461 I love bernie and he sounds as real as ever. But Mark's words are for sure scripted which kind of bummed me out. But it's a great video and I hope it helps some minds get on your side. A lot of us around the world are wishing you the best! And that is Bernie Sanders :)

[@tomorange7199]

Boosting youtube ranking by posting this. You should post too. Needs to be seen

[@eballa9056]

What a beautiful mini documentary. Really touching. Bernie has been fighting for the American people his entire life and so few know about this. What a perseverance. Endurance. Conviction. And faith in the American people. I hope this November more people recognizes that. I hope they do. For their own sake.

[@AqilahNaqlis]

I cried :(

[@notia2000]

me too and Im not American, finally a politican that gives the world hope
