That 2012 Bernie Sanders Speech That Could Help Him Win In 2016

"You know, I, for the love of me, I cannot understand why people who have billions of dollars are compulsively driven for more and how many people have got to die because they don't go to a doctor, because you want to avoid paying your taxes?" ~ Bernie Sanders

I do love this man, and this was the first time I heard the Senator from Vermont speak. Every year, I like to update and republish the speech, in hopes others will see him at his best, attacking Wall Street/1%, expressing the anger and the frustration of the people, and offering assurance and solutions. I remember thinking, 'Wow, where did this guy come from (even though he'd been in office since 2007). Why aren't more lawmakers like him?'

You cannot listen to this speech and doubt that this man should be the next President of the US.

If you can't listen to the whole speech, then start at approx 17 mins and listen to the last seven minutes.

There is so much truth in this speech it is hard to believe it is coming from a Politician.

I think this speech could be used at house parties and other meetups to introduce people to Bernie Sanders.

Add to that, his voting record shows that he votes the way he talks.

Is there any way anyone who actually listens to him speak and looks at his record could NOT vote for him?

Just let the people hear him and I KNOW he will win!

The Best Political Speech I Ever Heard

Sitting here in my apartment after a long week of work, I came across this article on Daily Kos titled “That 2012 Bernie Sanders Speech that Could Help Him Win in 2016.” After listening to the entire 25-minutes, I must admit, this is the best speech I have ever heard in politics, as Bernie explains very clearly why the American people are angry, and how we ended up living in an oligarchy. Three years have passed and every single issue that he mentions is even more serious, especially since the McCutcehon vs. FEC Supreme Court decision last year.

This speech certainly will help Bernie gain followers, we just need to share it with every person we know. The mainstream media has been marginalizing Bernie, as was to be expected with Hillary already being considered the inevitable Democratic nominee.

Since 2011, we have created worldwide movements using digital communication, and there is no doubt that these tools have the power to subvert mainstream media messaging.

He's right about that.
