Bernard "Bernie" Sanders (born September 8, 1941) is an American politician and the junior United States Senator from Vermont. He is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. A Democrat as of 2015, Sanders had been the longest-serving independent in U.S. congressional history, though his caucusing with the Democrats entitled him to committee assignments and at times gave Democrats a majority. Sanders has been the ranking minority member on the Senate Budget Committee since January 2015, and previously served for two years as chair of the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee.
Sanders was born and raised in the New York City borough of Brooklyn and graduated from the University of Chicago in 1964. While a student, he was an active civil rights protest organizer for the Congress of Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. After settling in Vermont in 1968, Sanders ran unsuccessful third-party campaigns for governor and U.S. senator in the early to mid-1970s. As an independent, he was elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont's most populous city, in 1981, and was reelected three times. In 1990, he was elected to represent Vermont's at-large congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 1991, Sanders co-founded the Congressional Progressive Caucus. He served as a congressman for 16 years before being elected to the U.S. Senate in 2006. In 2012, he was reelected with 71% of the popular vote. During the 2016 presidential primaries, Sanders became the first self-described democratic socialist and first Jewish American to win a presidential primary of a major party, namely the New Hampshire primary.
In the state that gave Bernie Sanders his first primary win, some of his most ardent supporters are grappling with a polarizing election.

In this Majority Report clip, Paul Ryan explains to a crowd in Wisconsin that if Republicans lose the senate, BERNIE SANDERS would become the chairman of the Budget Committee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He then says, "This just tells you what we would be dealing with...if we lose control of the senate." Actually...it does not tell anyone what exactly they would be dealing with. It conjures an image of a guy for most people there, and that's about it probably.

http://democracynow.org - With the election just 18 days away and three presidential debates behind them, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are campaigning across the country. Clinton is scheduled to spend Sunday in Raleigh, North Carolina, where she will be joined by the Mothers of the Movement—women who lost their children to police-involved incidents and gun violence. We discuss the election with former Bernie Sanders supporter Shaun King, senior justice writer for the New York Daily News. "We learned a lot of tough lessons" from the Sanders campaign, King says. But, he adds, "I think [Clinton] has evolved, and we’ll have to see, if she is elected, what that evolution means in terms of policy and practices."

Bernie Sanders recently sat down with NowThis to convince his supporters to shed their revolutionary attitudes and begin thinking practically. Judging his support of Hillary Clinton, someone Sanders had serious reservations about that still apply today, it doesn't seem like he knows what practical actually means. https://youtu.be/rTvYl2Tl_ew ############################# Tweet us: @LetMadnessBegin Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LetTheMadnessBegin/ Instagram: @LetMadnessBegin Check out our website: http://www.LetTheMadnessBegin.com To Help Our Channel With A Monthly Contribution: Become a patron: https://www.patreon.com/LTMB paypal.me/LTMB #############################
