4. * BIDEN: Bernie as Dem. Socialist, Income Inequality Credibility, Middle Class Broken Bargain, More

CNN's Gloria Borger sits down with Vice President Joe Biden and discusses the prospects of Democratic Presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. Jan. 2016.

Biden discusses Bernie as a European style democratic socialist, that Bernie speaks to a yearning that is deep and real, and he has credibility on it. That is the absolute, enormous concentration of wealth in a small group of people, with the Middle Class now able to be shown as left out.
There used to be a basic bargain, that if you contributed to the profitability of an enterprise, you got to share in the profit. That's been broken and productivity is way up, wages are stagnant, Biden said. No one questions Bernie's authenticity on those issues he continued. The Vice President said it was new for Hillary to talk about that, when Borger brought up her platform. 'I never thought she was the prohibitive favorite, and I don't think she ever thought she was the prohibitive favorite' he added.
