so expanding it in the way that senator michael bennet suggests would allow private insurance to continue. clarify, bennet is defending the existence of private insurance as an option. bernie sanders doesn't want that at all. bennet's argument is that this would create competition which would allow the public to choose a public option over private insurance which is an entity making a profit. a practicing physician and vice president of payer and provider integration at johns hopkins medicine. she served in the obama administration as director of policy for the office of intergovernmental affairs and public engagement. good to see you. this is tricky. you can get tripped up on the words and the technicalities of all of these things. in general, everybody on the democratic stage wants us to move more toward what other countries in the world have, and that is a system in which everybody either has coverage or gets health care paid for. >> right, absolutely, ali. and just keep in mind just like you said. there is kind of a spectrum of how people get there. but i think every democratic candid

effectively, i thought in the debate, where biden is praising the tax deal he cut with mcconnell and michael bennetthat was a horrible deal and wake got to the cleaners and we've been fighting it ever since ch it's interesting with vice president biden, because he's seen as a person who a canract the african-american vote. he has that through labor but it yn dissipate quickly goo think about the african-american vote. mosthillary clinton held of it and barack obama was challenging her. she held that for quite some time until he won in the iowa caucuses. seemed like a credible candidate. thenmeou saw africancan voters in south carolina and elsewhere go to him. i think we don't want to overstate the impact of two nights of debates. joe biden has a long history, been very successful raising money.s we think hoing to have a big money raising figure coming out t soon. other hand, this first debate really reinforced the questions that a lot of democrats, including democrats who like joe biden, have about whether he' a credible candidate and whether he's a candidate that can lead a party thatlways wants t

michael bennet started laughing? john hickenlooper started laughing.ee democratic socialism as a bernie sanders idea, obviously not just his idea, but as a thing that bernie sanders has committed to and that they think is the wrong way to go. as kirsten gillibrand put me, the senator from new york, this is about fixing the system, not totally overthrowing it. and that is something that i think you'll see really clearly as sanders tries to differentiate himselves from the field starting now and go into the debates at the end of the month. >> isaac, as you know, recent polls have showed sanders slipping slightly, a number of these polls, is there a risk of bernie fatigue, isaac? >> well, we'll find out. obviously, this was a very different race than it was in 2016. that was essentially a binary race. this is a race between 23 people and lots och differef differentt there. but also a race that has been in many ways redefined by bernie sande sanders. many of the positions are positions they probably would not have had four years ago without sanders showing

that was colorado senator michael bennet last night during the debate last night reacting to one of twons from the supreme court yesterday. many progressive democrats saying one reason congress remains under republican control is because of gerrymandering and redrawing of election maps by state legislatures. in a 5-4 vote they said they were effectively powerless to stop the drawing of such partisan maps. chief justice john roberts wrote in his majority decision excessive partisanship in distributing leads results that reasonably seem unjust but the fact that such gerrymandering is incompatible with democratic principles does not require redistricting. >>> representative for the common cause whose plaintiff was the person at the center of yesterday's supreme court ruling. what is the supreme court ruling they will not administer justice. >> that's the problem. the supreme court is saying this is not their fight. we live in a democracy where every vote should count and every voice should matter. quite frankly, the supreme court took the cowardly route here. >> i grew up with one man one
