And he has talked about

Worker's Rights
Civil Rights
Women's Rights
Rights for the Disabled
Gay Rights

So apparently, he is addressing social justice as well as economic justice in his campaign.

Please add this to the Bernie Sanders Group Bulletin Board thread so people can find it easily to share whenever they need to. I think this is thelong version of Bernie's stump speech where he lays out his views. It's great sound and picture so it is very easy to watch.

And sharing with friends and family, I think you're going to see them start nodding their heads in agreement. Because he is describing the situation in this country and gives honest solutions. He doesn't sound like he's seliing himself, he's making he's making a strong argument for his ideas. It's long, but if they are willing to commit for the first ten minutes they will mostly likely get sucked into the whole thing like I was.

Hoping to share this far and wide. Thanks for posting.

I''m thrilled to hear him!

He gives me hope that, as he says, the world will be OK for my children and grandchildren. Maybe we will see some real change in America before I die. I'm not dying yet, but until Bernie stepped up, I figured it would take another century for Americans to wise up.
