bernie bernie sanders and of course he's bernie sanders is no socialistic he's a new deal democrat but bernie sanders is an austerity busty new deal a democrat and busting austerity and that is reversing the policy that makes workers more and more precarious so that they will be so desperate they'll take any kind of lousy gig appointment with an employer and accept that that is a job that is absolutely necessary or the only class the citizens simply necessary for the maintenance of the system and so they're locked in to joe biden types presentations they're the ones who fear that any break in the austerity regime will be the slippery slope that would lead to all kinds of social supports that would make workers unwilling to take the gig jobs that that which are all that the rulers. really to offer i want to talk about the. jesters police taking a need of the mayor of washington painting the streets with black life better reminds me of an abusive relationship where your folly walked out and then the abuser shows up at your door with flowers and chocolates but i want you to talk a little

it wasn't just bernie sanders. it was also elizabeth warren. and if you look at what happened really beginning in october of last year, and then right through the primaries, which is a is that bernie and elizabeth, bernie sanders and elizabeth warren, kept on splitting the progressive voter together they had more votes anybody else. in fact, even up to super tuesday they both had more votes than anybody else but those votes were split. jill biden managed to move right through the center. -- joe biden. the old center, and i think the establishment was quite relieved. one of the reasons that bernie sanders and elizabeth warren both ultimately lost is not just that they split the vote, but also that the democratic establishment got extremely nervous elizabeth warren first, when she was number one. there was a brief interval where she was leader. she was promoting a wealth tax. it scared the bejesus out of the democratic establishment, the corporate and wall street democrats. and then bernie sanders moved into the leadership and, of course, he's sca

if bernie sanders can't get progressives to move towards biden, aoc certainly cannot. they are serious about the platform of medicare for all, $15 an hour, serious about the green new deal and all the things they push and we have yet to hear what the task force board came up with to meet progressives in the middle. until that happens in biden is able to adopt the policies that are important to progressives i don't see them moving to be honest. shannon: look at the statement from bernie sanders to the new yorker on pushing joe biden to the left. if you're unhappy with biden's politics, if you disagree and i certainly do than the fight has got to take place turning today to make sure he moves in as progress of a way as possible, that his administration is as progressive as possible. do you think the country is ready for that much moved to the left? >> most of what they say our moderate towards the center but the thing bernie sanders forgot is the fight started a long time ago. these individuals four years ago to say this was indeed a revolution so a lot of progressive su

they wa nt to bernie sanders promised them. wealthiest people. isjoe biden going to deliver of that? well, we will have to wait and see. there is the deal, as somebody who supported elizabeth warren very proudly, as somebody who you referred to in the beginning as having radically liberal ideas, look, i don't agree withjoe biden on everything and he doesn't agree with me on everything but i have a better chance to move policies in the direction of that i think a good for this country with joe the direction of that i think a good for this country withjoe biden as president as opposed to donald trump. right, you're talking a lot about values and about healing america, i want to ask you want very specific thing about the democratic party right now which is the pick thatjoe biden is going to make for vice president. a lot of people are saying that his ready committed it to being a woman. a lot of people are saying that it needs to be a black woman and names have been put forward from kamala harris, susan rice, val deming ‘s, the an

while she narrowly one in the general election, bernie sanders one by only 30 -- almost any percent over- almost 30%ady percent -- almost over hillary. getting that grew behind her was important. beau biden has not had that difficult with bernie. they have; had a good relationship throughout the early campaign. and there were few low blows fired by either campaign. so folks are looking forward to getting behind biden. what is interesting, particularly for the body campaign, he is going to profit from september. in september we have a primary race for governor, which is statewide. again, that is unusual in new hampshire. in the democratic party, the leadership of the party tends to anoint their candidates for major office. reallyn do not have aggressive active primaries on the democratic side. this will help the body campaign really as an exercise get out their right to vote, their get out the vote efforts, and hopefully be well tuned up in time for november. host: we will come back to the race this year. but let's look ahead four years from now. as you know, the debate continues as to w

. >>> tonight join jimmy and his guests senator bernie sanders, dr. bernice a. king, wyatt cenac, and the legendary roots crew it's the tonight show at home edition. and now, here's jimmy! >> jimmy: welcome to the tonight show, everybody. thank you for watching it's been a long and intense week in this country and i really do appreciate you tuning in i know a lot of these conversations are a little bit uncomfortable. but they need to be had and we're having them and we're going to continue to have them so thank you again for joining me in these conversations. i think we have a very interesting and fun show for you. the senator from the great state of vermont, bernie sanders is on the program this evening also, she's the head of the king central. ceo of the king central. her father is dr. martin luther king jr. and her mom is coretta king also the very funny wyatt cenac is on the show we'll close out the show with a performance from the roots first let's get to some news well, guys, a former member of donald trump's cabinet is speaking out against him that could

while she narrowly won in the general election bernie sanders won by almost 30 percentage points over hillary. and so getting all of that group behind her was really, really important, and it was difficult. but biden hadn't had that problem with bernie. i think they've had a good relationship throughout the new hampshire primary campaign. there were very few low blows fired by either candidate, so sanders folks are looking forward to getting behind biden, and what's interesting is particularly for the biden campaign he's going to profit from september. in september we have a primary race for governor, which is of course statewide. and that -- again, that's unusual in new hampshire. in the democratic party the leadership of the party tends to anoint their candidates for major office. we often don't have really aggressive, active primaries on the democratic side. this will help the biden campaign really as it exercise get out there, test their get out the vote efforts and hopefully be well tuned up in time for november. >> let's look ahead four years from now because as you know the deb

bernie sanders, elizabeth warren, alexandria ocasio-cortez all endorsing him. there is a big financial disparity here between these campaigns, mcgrath, nearly $20 million, booker, only a couple hundred thousand dollars but this is an interesting test, this late momentum that's behind booker, this sudden focus, grassroots emphasis on black lives matter and all those issues. the question is, could this lift booker to an upset victory tomorrow in the democratic primary? by the way, one thing to keep in mind here, kentucky's got mail-in voting for this primary, got a lot of people who have requested ballots but in terms of in-person voting tomorrow, lexington and louisville, they had 2,400 polling places in the state. there are 177 tomorrow. there's one for the county where louisville is. there's one for the county where lexington is. these are the big population centers. these are big polling places. it's an expo center and a football field but that's one

that is bernie sanders, far left democratic politics. are hearing much the same from joe biden, nancy pelosi, from the mayor of minneapolis. everybody is saying we have to respond to the george floyd situation but it's not about saying there's not going to be any police. instead people are thinking about, how do you do this more effectively? if someone has a mental health issue, sending some one with a gun may not be the best way to deal with it. maybe that person becomes violence in which case you do want to send a police officer. but again, is it the case that we want something like mental health services or for drug addicts, drug treatment programs. it's kind of a more sophisticated way and not putting police on what should not be police work in the country. i think it's important to understand that even as you can sort of caricature defund the police and make it an argument, it's a distortion from the reality of the kind of conversation, even the kind of legislation that we are seeing on capitol hill where they are talking about no c

former bernie sanders supporte supporters, that's exactly who they are. black lives matter, the cofounders, they said they want to get trump outcome of these are bernie sanders supporters and they become mercenaries for biden. you're going to pull down jefferson's memorial, i want to ask these people a question. the declaration of independence, the first draft was written by thomas jefferson. each of the of independence applied to the antifa, the biden bolsheviks? i think we ripped down the declaration of independence as applies to them. you got a problem with that? got a problem with that? that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the government. if you're going to pull patches down i think we ought to look rip up the declaration as applies to biden's bolsheviks. let's take a look at the constitution. you know who voted for the declaration of independence? the second continental congress, i wonder if these marauders even knew there were two contine

these are bernie sanders radicals, these are marxists. and get hats and shirts and they burn things down and break things and democrat cities because these pathetic, left-wing democrat mayorses wont stand up too them! it's all happening democrat cities. they are pulling down the nations monuments, but only certain monuments. whatever happened to robert byrd? the democrat party makes him a majority leader, makes in a minority leader, he's got a statue in the capital. i noticed pelosi doesn't talk about taking that down, the grand kleagle. i also noticed you gave the eulogy for robert byrd and obama and biden gave a eulogy for robert byrd. let me make a quick suggestion. there had to be four debates, three trump versus biden, and one biden versus biden. where does he stand on busing today? he was for it, against it, for it, where deceased anime crime bill? today? he was an author, now he was against it, where does he stand with segregationist? use to work with them, not against it. four debates, three trump versus biden, one biden versus bi

is so people who truly believe in what bernie is saying, if you believe bernie sanders, bernie sanders is telling you why he has gotten behind joe biden. vice president biden believes it is going to take all of us if we are going to defeat donald trump and build on this bold, progressive vision that both senator sanders and vice president biden have together. secondly though i'll say that vice president biden himself has said for a long time that he needs these young people that senator sanders brought in. these folks that were maybe a little disconnected from politics, but senator sanders or senator warren or kamala harris inspired them. we need those folks. we need the enthusiasm, we need the ideas, and we we cannot do this without them. our campaign -- [inaudible] we welcome you. and i think that's really important because leadership starts at the top. and the third thing i'll say is our engagement to these folks is really genuine. you know, when we talk about progressive engagement, we have gone literally organization by organization, what i like to call meticulous, surgical precis

does he embrace bernie sanders and aoc, keeping the left wing of the party?ng of the democratic party which is borderline on socialism right now, does he appease them by appointing them to major positions where they have impact on economic policy? alexandria cortez, the your congresswoman elected by a landslide, does get the administration in some way? not necessarily a cabinet memb member, something he wants to do economically we don't know. we think they will determine the size and scope of volatility but there is this fear about what the democrats will bring to the table if the poll numbers continue to stay where they are. hillary clinton lost last time, everybody on "wall street" thought she was going to win. different times, they remind me, what's interesting is how much corporate america really despises donald trump. they may say nice things to his face, aside from a handful of executives, people like steve and a few others, there is real animosity and you know what's weird, it is not policy wise, it is personality wise. we start to talk. liz: charlie,

so everybody does not have bernie sanders. i think we all have a similar encounter. the question is when your opportunity comes, do you have an answer? and how may times the young people out there when someone asks you what for dinner everybody's like like oh, i don't know i'm unsure. we asked what kind of vegetable do it for dinner he's like i don't know is that you do know what vegetable do it. he says carrots and green beans and french fries. while french fries not a vegetable but he had an answer. not only have an answer but ask for what it is we want not what we think someone is going to give us. ask for what we deserve. so many times we ask for the things right up under the thing we really want because we think the thing we really want is too much. we can't ask for that is not proper once ask for this down here and maybe we can work our way up here. i own a shoe for on the moon. it is knowing what you want for dinner. often times when son asks you what you want for dinner you know. so just tell the people what you want for dinner. you might not get it but maybe

what they call the revolutionary platform he started out saying he's a moderate he's not like bernie sanders although biden didn't actually embrace the label moderate but he cast himself as the alternative to sanders now he's talking about revolution he actually used that word himself a few days ago revolutionary policies that's right out of bernie sanders so he's not putting the socialist label on himself but he's adopting the rhetoric he's adopting the policies and that's because he's not sure of his own base you know even with all this unrest which i think some democrats hope to use in the election against donald trump a lot of the protesters are saying they want to hear more from biden he hasn't made the sale to them they don't feel like he's on their side enough so he's under a lot of pressure from the left and so as obama said about biden he's the most progressive candidate or he's running the most progressive platform in american history so you know obama thinks biden's to the left of mcgovern maybe you probably have a better sense of perspective and then obama does but certainly it's

i'm not so aware of what bernie sanders and jeremy corbin a saying now i'm i'm very aware that caroline lucas in the green party has been working on a green new deal with people like john of them part they've been working since 2007 on the models that franklin roosevelt set down in 1933 that they not only planted 3500000000 trees they also did a lot of restoring of soil they prevented millions and millions of dollars of loss of juta fires with new services to prevent fires we have we we have so many jobs to do in terms of our relationship with our environment i don't know why any political party is not thinking about this particularly when they have to they have to intervene now i know a lot of more right wing governments don't want to be seen as intervening in society they want to light a touch of government but everyone's calling out to the government in to be known and support us and help us through this there are other benefits too in my mind as well in terms of the rare important issues of racial diversity in our society this all the divides that have grown up in our society of the

bank black mark against our system and the idea that we were arguing about medicare for all and bernie sanders very reasonable health care things now seems absurd when you have at the center of the most advanced medical system in america new york you have the center of this vast tragedy so i think this is a great teaching moment and the folly of the new cold war is it didn't have sense when you didn't have wrestle who is certainly makes no sense when you have these communist capitals in china who are better at doing capitalism then we are yeah and you know unless people forget the pivot towards asia go really against asia started under obama because they were fearing you know china's economic influence and and their gaming their gaming on us $59000.00 americans for just have memorial day die supposedly stopping communism than vietnam and we wasted you know we killed what between 4 and 5000000 indochinese people ok were killed in that war and what happened we lost and that war the most ignominious defeat and communist china communist vietnam went to war and invaded said now who i am right now w

i actually left the democratic party in 2016 after watching them cheap bernie sanders and after i didn't work on his campaign actually lobbying that the n.c.a. members to try to persuade them of the kinds of things that i was saying that was the job i added in that campaign and so if that is it the heel or a project is a bipartisan projects you know you have seen for decades on end working people have not gotten a rise the minimum wage in real value in 1968 and so that is consistent through democratic republican administrations both parties that helped all control of government during this on their bill clinton we worked with democrats across obama with democrats as well and that is basically why i'm working with an organization actually called the movement for people's party who just was out was a major new progressive up those already in the united states and that has nothing to do it with the democrats are taking her to get away from both of them because so much access and able. to see how do you respond because the interesting thing is if it and again in principle. i would agree with

the same day we had our first coronavirus case was the primary and he won pretty handily over bernie sanders. 12 is a big number. do i think it will be 12 on election day? i would be shocked. where we are seeing other polls nationally, given that polls are showing biden up in areas in north carolina and florida, states that are far more republican leaning than michigan. cover a lot of trade issues for the detroit free press. who has the upper hand on that topic? >> that will remain to be seen because president trump has made such an issue of trade in the last election. the rewrite of nafta means a lot in michigan where autoworkers naftaularly feel that sent a lot of jobs to mexico and they never got them back. that is what really cost the auto industry. there is evidence on both sides of that. biden, even though he has supported trade deals as vice president under barack obama, has a particular kind of report with working-class voters who do not see him as such a globalist as other democrats. it is certainly a working-class field to him. it was a more in line to take that fight to trump in a

senator bernie sanders. does he add any gravitas to the campaign in the fall? >> they seem to have had a good relationship and you hit on something really important, steve. as we saw in 2016, if hillary had great difficulty getting bernie's huge organization here to line up behind her. i mean, that's what folks tend to get in the election and bernie won percentage points over hillary. so getting that, all of that group behind her was really, really important and it was difficult. and what biden hasn't had that problem with bernie, i think they've had a good relationship throughout the new hampshire primary campaign. there were few low blows fired by either candidate. so sanders folks are looking forward to getting behind biden and what's interesting is particularly for the biden campaign. he's going to profit in september. in september we have a primary race for governor, which is, of course, statewide and again, that's unusual in new hampshire. in the democratic party, the leadership of the party tends to anoint their candidates for office. we don't have reall

the same day we had our first coronavirus case that the primary and he won pretty candidly over bernie sanders. it was a big number and do i think it's going to be 12 on election day? i would be shocked if it's 12 on election day. but, 12 given what are we are seeing other polls nationally , given that polls are showing biden up in -- and in north carolina and florida. states like ohio, states that are far more republican leaning that michigan. >> frankly you cover trade issues for the detroit free press, who has the upper topic? >> that is going to remain to be seen. because president trump has made such an issue of trade in the last election and with nafta the rewrite of nafta means a lot in michigan for autoworkers and particularly, they rightly or wrongly feel that nafta sent a ton of jobs to mexico and they never got them back and that's what really cost the industry jobs for years which is evidence on both sides of that. biden, even though he has supported trade deals and certainly supported trade deals as vice president under barack obama had a particular kind of rapport with working-cl

has imposed steep and he trusts penalties american politicians like elizabeth warren or bernie sanders is even calling for the internet tech giants to be broken up. that's a lofty promise and by the way 7 of the 10 most highly valued corporations worldwide tech firms apple microsoft alphabet amazon facebook the chinese e-commerce group alibaba and tencent which owns. the market dominance it seems unshakeable except for apple and microsoft all these companies have been around for less than 25 years in just a short time they've become the biggest players in the world market and their main resources i intended they include user data and algorithms. but would really change anything if you broke up logic operations well then wouldn't you play is just take over the market and we'd be back where we stop it is a platform isn't a lot only these platforms are markets but since they're part of our digital infrastructure the classical market mechanisms no longer apply. to these platforms should be treated as a public service and be a freely available infrastructure fossil to one because the india

. >> it was a state in the democratic primary that bernie sanders one over hillary clinton but the opposite in 2020 when the primary was shelved in early april after the start of this pandemic and an easy victory for the joe biden campaign for what you attribute that to? >> on paper this good event of perfect state. he pointed to his win in 2016. wisconsin is a big progressive element within the democratic party wisconsin and by the time wisconsin presidential primary came around in early april the national picture had just entirely slept with joe biden taking command of the race and democratic voters across country deciding that he would be the nominee so we had presidential primary in wisconsin that coincided with a big april nonpartisan state election and by the end the state election ended up demanding attention within the state the democratic presidential primary. >> if you look at the campaign with president trump traveling to the state on a couple of occasions and a lot of effort by the democrats with the party convention in milwaukee now in mid august, what do you see on the ground?

but carell‘s gary, he is bill clinton with impulse control or a churchgoing bernie sanders with better and so gary attempts to persuade jack to stand for mayor. yeah, we're the good guys. throwing behind him the kind of high—tech campaign that attracts national attention and national dollars. meanwhile, byrne's faith shows up to fight to the republican corner as a local election becomes a bellwetherfor greater things. pitched somewhere between the appointed barbs of barry levinson‘s wag the dog, and the fish out of water charm of bill forsyth's local hero, it is broad strokes fair. hardly radical, but still entertaining nonetheless. do you have a bottle opener? no, it's just a twist, twist off. yeah, yeah, yeah. i know. maybe he does need a bottle opener. use your vest. most importantly the nonpartisan action does not try to tie the sickness of american politics to one party or another. instead, stewart who proved himself an astute political commentator on the daily show takes aim at a system in which money and power ride roughshod over the interests of ordinary people, whatever their
