it's senator sanders tradition and it's our tradition, too. the same values also formed the backbone of the senator's strong support for israel. a country founded by progressive dreamers hoping to build a social democracy and they have driven him to provide strong support for u.s. leadership towards a two state solution. during the campaign, senator sanders made clear that the future of israelis and palestinians are intertwined. he said in one speech is from violence and metabolism but also the security for every palestinian. [cheering] it means achieving self-determination, civil rights and an economic well-being to the palestinian people. [applause] along with secretary clinton, senator sanders helped establish a new standard for discourse in israel and the democratic party as the candidates show the politicians can win support from the voters by touting the importance of diplomacy comes serious compromise and progress towards peace. [applause] in this difficult era, we know senator sanders will be an important voice setting up a dangerous p

and i remember going to a bernie sanders rally at the fox theater in atlanta. he was innate souther swing trying to -- southern swing trying to a legal to black voters. -- trying to appeal to black voters. the crowd was overwhelmingly white when he walked out, they stood up and remained standing .or one hour and 40 minutes they stood the whole time. there weren't that many black voters, and i felt i could speak to every single one of them, which i did. they were all young, and they all told me, they kept trying to convince their parents to vote for bernie. and they said, i just can't do it. they are with clinton. they won't leave clinton, and is because the bill. they don't like her that much, it is because of bill, and they won't change. i think bernie sanders would have had a hard time putting those voters and might have done worse with the constituencies which are absolutely vital to the democratic victory. different: a totally dynamic. elections do not follow the path they think we will follow. that would have been a fun election to cover. matt schlapp: so

rick: what would have happened to bernie sanders was twofold. he would -- hillary did not pull enough voters from certain democratic constituencies, bernie sanders really would have had that problem. the other problem, we are being honest with each other, bernie sanders' program didn't work. there were nice ideas, but if you actually put -- [applause] matt: i think ungar is just playing up to the crowd. rick: perhaps the biggest reason that hillary clinton lost was that she did not re-create the obama coalition, black and other minority voters did not turn out in the numbers they had for president obama twice. and actually, i remember going to a bernie sanders rally at the fox theater in atlanta. and he was in a southern swing trying to appeal to black voters. well, the crowd was overwhelmingly white, but he really packed the place. when he walked out, they stood up, and they remain standing for one hour and 14 minutes that he spoke. they stood the whole time. there weren't that many black voters, and i felt i could speak to every single one of

ellison accepted sanders offer. senator sanders will be live. mr. chairman, thank you for joining us. >> please to be with you, jake. >> i know your voice is from vigorous campaigning, so nobody at home should sound any alarms. >> yep. >> i want to ask you, president trump told cpac on friday that the republican party will be the party of the american worker, and in november, president trump carried workers without a college degree, working class voters by 37%. what is your plan to work these voters back into the fold. >> we lead with our values and our actions, we talk about how literally hours into the trump administration was a fraud, he made it harder for first-time homeowners to buy a home. he made it harder to save for requirement. he nominate adjust for the supreme court who wants to evis rate collective bargaining. if you want good jobs, elect a democrat. that's the message that we have to communicate, it's a message that is true, it resonates in every zip code and that's what you're going to be doing all over the nation, the fact is that th

senator sanders versus senator senator sanders versus senator cruz. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com [ applause ] >>> live from the george washington university in the nation's capital, this is cnn's debate night on the future of the affordable care act, also known as obamacare. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm y i'm jake tapper. >> i'm dana bash. president trump has made the repeal and replacement of the affordable care act a priority. these defenders and supporters of obamacare will get to question two leading members of congress who will shape what comes next. >> so, please welcome the runners-up for the democratic and republican nominations for president, bernie sanders, independent of vermont. [ applause ] [cheers and applause] and senator ted cruz, republican of texas. [cheers and applause] >> senators, welcome. please take your positions behind the podiums. now before your opening statements, i want to talk about the ground rules you both agreed to. you will get 90 seconds to questions posed to you, 45 seconds for responses and rebuttals. a

sanders' wing and the elizabeth warren wing? >> well, it is an excellent question, and there is certainly that i can do more report on that. >> you can have your show back in a moment, jonathan. >> i have no problem with really good questions, and that is a good one. >> from what i have observed, yeah. there is a schism there between the people who want to completely disrupt the democratic party, and hey, we have it going there, and tear it up and start from the scratch, and there are people who want to go in there to fix what is wrong. and debbie wassermann schultz was not a good leader, and the idea that i would stand with the establishment or anybody else who stands with tom perez stands with the establishment is wrong. >> that is the flaw in this sort of the line of logic. that tom perez represents the little guy and just because he serves in a democratic administration, and very popular democratic administration, and continues to be pop you har administration, that it should disqua disqualify him, because we need disruption

when senator sanders liked to -- would senator sanders like to make a statement? >> i will. i would hope, given the importance of this nomination, this nominee will be the most important one that this committee deals with. i would hope that members on both sides will be able to make brief statements given the importance of this nomination. is it that something you would consider? >> the precedent on this for has been for people to submit statements to be part of the record. >> that is unfortunate. and this is a nomination of significant consequence and i know that members would like the opportunity to say a few words. >> i appreciate that. i delayed the vote so you would have the opportunity to review the fbi files. i would like to get on with it. >> the essence of my statement is less about mick mulvaney who seems to be a straightforward gentleman who has extreme right wing economic point of view which is his prerogative but what testers me very much about this nomination is virtually everything economically that mr. mulvaney stands for and has fought for is in direct contr

bernie sanders ran a terrific race. he had the advantage of running a race in which there was no negative ads going against him. she did not want to do that. i think that is a strategy that the race, buton if you add up all the primary and caucus votes for all 50 states, you know, she got 56%. he got 44%. a lot of the states that he won were caucus states. so she won the race fair and square. i do not think it is accurate to say it was somehow in the bag for her. host: i consider myself a progressive and want nothing to do with the democratic party after the stunt they pulled in tweet.n 2016, a how do you bring those people back? guest: frankly, i am not really sure what stunts they are talking about. people think somehow the system was gamed, the people were not denied the right to vote. i think, personally -- host: this is a bernie sanders supporter who did not feel the primary was run fairly. thingsto me, one of the about the primary system is that we have caucuses. caucuses are voting sessions that take several hour

i think all these factors played a role, and sanders just ran out of time. if he had two, three, four more months, started his campaign earlier, played to win, i think he would have had a chance, i think he did win over the broad middle of the country and he would have won the general election. >> had he had enough time and become the democratic nominee. in retrospect, do you think he could have beaten trump? >> i would say that i think trump fluked his way into this election, in many ways, i and other people thought that clintonism couldn't defeat trumpism in the long run. but we did think that clinton would be able to defeat a candidate as gaffe prone and inept as donald trump. a variety of things happened, they all clicked for him and the clinton campaign was inept. you should be afraid of donald trump and vote on the basis of that fear. donald trump had a clear, more positive message of, you know, make america great again. i think on the left, we want to make america great for the first time. but in many ways, that message is more affirmative i think, an

senator sanders wanted an appeal. this is a compromise we have been able to reach. working on this iligently from the days that this has passed both bodies. the fact that there has been movement for a long period of time i think was exaggerated. among sanders and i other members of the conference committees have worked very to bring this ry to closure before we left for the august recess. host: jeff miller and bernie sanders on their july 2014 a veterans bill one of four you highlight in your book. one that did s play out in the headlines and he headlines were saying veterans bill falling apart overnight. t was very rocky and the two people involved were two of the most different people you could have. described dent sever ocialist -- self-described socialist bernie sanders and from the panhandle. lots of military, bible belt conservatives and they managed to do it. but it was tough. where the situation larger debate over the government's role in healthcare play.into how much access much veterans to private care to stop the wait times and would to support oney itsel

erica huckabee sanders said why pretend?> i think it's kinds of naive of us to think we can walk into a room for a couple of hours and pretend some of the tension isn't there. one of the things we say in the south, if a girl scout eggs your house, would you buy cookies from her? i think this is a similar scenario. reporter: the white house secretary respond with a quote, the dinner continues to be a celebration of the first amendment and the important role played buy an independent news media in a healthy republic. so while we may be about to enter the 6th week that president trump is in the white house with tweets like that. it sounds like he's still campaigning to get here. eric: it's a two-way street. some reporters said they may not want to go, fan news organizations boy together those after parties. what do we expect he will say in the joint session of congress? and what do lawmakers save they want to hear from the president? reporter: i think they want to hear less of what i was just talking about and want more policie

caller: we supported bernie sanders.hen the democratic party stole it from him and gave it to hillary who was the pre-appointed -- pre-anointed one, we turned on the democratic party. i am disturbed and disgusted but certainly not surprised by the democratic choice of leadership. i don't see any change between the old guard. i don't know why they did not respond to the debbie wasserman schultz fiasco. that is what cost them the election. they disenfranchised so many people who were so enthusiastic about the democratic party with bernie sanders and they pulled the rug out from under him. this was set up in advance. she was the anointed one and i don't see any change. going with allison would have been -- would have indicated a change. perez, old guard. goes way back in time. nothing is going to change. this is the old democratic party. they picked the candidate and the public just has to vote for that lousy choice. i see no improvement in the democratic party. perez was the former labor secretary. now the chair of the dnc

sarah huckabee sanders, thank you very much. >> let's bring in the democratic leader in the house. nancy pelosi, thank you for joining us today. >> my pleasure. >> you heard sarah sanders talk about the committee looking into the russia ties with the trump campaign. also, pretty much saying there will not be a recusal for now from the attorney general. your response? >> as you read the law and saw the law, the attorney general must recuse himself. but let's just take it back a step. you have seen a flurry of activities that are completely inappropriate, encouraging lawmakers, encouraging officials to say something is one way or another. let's have the investigation and find out the truth. and we have been calling. we have 100, plus now one republican, on eric smallwell's bill for an outside, independent commission to study the personal, political, and financial relationship between president trump and the russians. >> so far, the efforts have been quashed by the republican leadership in the house. you're getting pressure from democrats to go farther. michael moore put out a tweet t

we had bernie sanders speak at our campaign. we invited -- liberty university invited bernie sanders, they invited hillary clinton, gary johnson came, jill stein was invited. i am proud of my alma mater for opening the discussion and allowing people to come in for an opportunity to speak openly. i imagine bernie sanders came to liberty university and was received with applause even though they disagreed overwhelmingly. if donald trump had gone and spoken at a barrel university, do we think people would quietly sit and listen to him speak? there is a double standard. i commend the pretty university for listening to people and hearing their opinions. >> host: this from td fredericks, are a student's political beliefs affecting their grades? >> guest: yes they are and at cpac in national harbor, over a dozen students came up to me at our campus and they said look, i had a paper on whatever the topic is, not just political classes, geography and history and student say i got my grade talked because my professor and i got in politica

but on the philosophy, this is bernie sanders party.as strieng striking as it is under trump, it's strike from my point of view from a policy point of view of a vermont social wloift has been out there on the far reaches the democratic party now is the central figure in their party. that is something that's really remarkable. >> but aren't you the person who was talking about making sure that trade is fair? i mean, aren't you raising -- haven't you been raising these same issues? you and i have both been raising these same issues so bernie sanders has been raising those issues too. that economic core issue is a democratic issue. you can brand it all you want, but you've been raising that issue too. >> if i've been raising the issue it's not a core democratic issue it's something i've been ragds. and if you recall the last president to put in tariffs was george w. bush who put in still tariffs. >> so you're in alignment with bernie and is serz all i'm saying on that. >> on the issue of trade there is assignment but on just about everythi

senator sanders believes health care is a right.very american has right to get it whether from government or employer or other means whereas senator cruz says every american has right to access to health care. that was bernie sanders trying to drive a hole through what access means for people who can't afford it. >> and they're talking about repealing and replacing obamacare. >> should congress move swiftly to repeal obamacare? absolutely. nobody thinks we're done once it's repealed. then we need common sense reform that increases competition, empowers patients. gives you more choices, puts you in charge of health care rather than empowering government bure bureaucrats. for six years republicans proposing and democrats saying no change at all even as people were hurting and losing coverage. >> the president has been saying maybe 2018 before they can replace it. question is are republicans changing their tune now they're seeing how tricky it is and that they'll own it? >> they're changing their tune in terms of the time line, no ques

lots of work, brianna. >> one of the criticisms that bernie sanders supporters, because bernie sanders was very much behind keith ellison, one of the things ellison supporters said was -- tom perez doesn't have a lot of electoral experience. he's won one race from montgomery county council. that's it. is this really the guy that's going to help democrats in the mid terms as you mentioned, so important coming up for democrats. is this the guy with that experience when it comes to a 50-state strategy, an electoral strategy? what do youcy to that? >> i think that's going to be a challenge. remember we've had former dnc chairs with no electoral experience. we've had ron brown, terry mcauliffe, who later ran to be governor. so i don't think that's a bigger challenge. he's got to put the right people around him. he's got to have the right message and he's got to do a better job of bringing in the bernie sanders voters and supporters in the dnc. give them significant positions, give the progressives a voice, and talk about a progressive economy that brings back those trump voters, who normall

who many bernie sander suppo supporters are backinging. listen tolt pitch he made earlier to this crowd. >> a united democratic party is not only our best hope, it is donald trump's worst nightmare. and we will be there. together. with hope. with hard work and with a hell of a lot of organizing, we will turn this party around and get democrats winning again. >> if you were to poll this room, there are probably more keith ellison supporters in the room, but only have the roof is eligible to vote, so there is certainly some passion by keith ellison supporters, but there are likely more tom perez voters standing behind me, and they're the ones who are going to decide who's the next chair, but the key here, is that next chair is going to have to unite both ends of this room if they have any hope of organizing the party and being a true check. donald trump and his administration, so that will be a big job and pecht whoever wins to reach out to the side that didn't vote for him in the beginning to begin that process. >> so, now, it's down to is

let's take a look at when exchange with vermont senator bernie sanders. [video clip] sanders: there is a rolling bearing this country that we are moving toward what some would call an oligarchy form of society, where a small number of very, very wealthy billionaires control with significant degree are economic and political life. would you be so kind as to tell money or family has contributed to the republican party over the years? betsy devos: senator, thank you for the question. i was pleased to meet you in your office last week. i wish it could give you that number. i do not know. senator sanders: i have heard the number was 200 million, is that in the ballpark? devos betsydevos: it is possible. senator sanders: i do not mean to be rude, do you think if you are not a multibillionaire, if your family had not made aliens of dollars of contributions to the republican party, that you would be sitting here today? betsy devos: senator, as a matter of fact, i do think it would be that possibility. i have worked very hard on behalf of parents and children for

sanders: go when you say -- sanders? --messages i look forward tom perez: my messages i look forward to listening and learning from you. if we are all in this together. out on thehave gone road over the past two or three months, i have had fascinating learning moment, talking to people, some of them voted for senator sanders, some of them voted for jill stein, and gary johnson power hillary clinton. what is so important to understand is what unites us is our differences, and as congressman ellison said, we are staring unbelievably existential threats right in the eye right now, and we have to be united moving forward, because we have 70 people across this country who are fearful -- so many people across this country who are fearful. we have a lot to work -- of work to do, but i think our diversity is the strength of the party. >> what the folks in the back of the room? tom perez: i love passion. because we cash and need to make sure we address the abiding issues and equality. when congressman ellingson -- ellison and i w

sanders talked about obamacare. what's the changes?'m the first panelist to be on cobra insurance. >> i'm on it too. >> are ya? now i'm looking at how much does insurance cost under obamacare? it is extremely expensive. this is going to be extremely complex issue that moves beyond pop pewism. >> you know -- >> did you set up an exchange? >> i'm staying on cobra as long as i can. >> listen -- >> that's $1100 a month, and for a middle class family, that's a lot per year of net income out of your pocket. >> obamacare, republicans fought it when it was passed because it gave so much power to the secretary of hhs, and enormous power, like 2500 references. now the shoe's on the foot, now a republican hhs director can do so much. >> nba weekend is not in north carolina. it was not repealed yet. you and i had a back and forth on this. >> i do -- i'm very concerned about the purge iing. houston, texas, they did the exact same law as north carolina, and there was no boyco boycott. >> they hinted they could take it further. >> no problems in hous

from what i heard from sanders' supporters, not sanders himself, that perez was reaching out to them all along, and in some ways more than keith ellison. he went straight to activist. a lot of the street activist that are steering and energizing and demanding stronger action from the democratic leadership, and these are people perez is more familiar with, and probably more than some of the corporate donors sanders is worried about. >> i read the exchange in tweets between the president and perez. this may be just a one of for tom perez, but is there any real value here, something you want to see the dnc do more with the president? >> i think it's more political banter than effectiveness, and it sends a message to the republicans and a message to donald trump that perez is going to be fully engaged, and he is going to be not only a leader, but a cheerleader, and he's going to challenge donald trump at every juncture, whether it's social, on the ground, at the white house, or whether it's in congress. look for a spirited debate and a spirited aggressive dnc, because they are not that f
