  18.  @c.san.8751 Take the example of healthcare. Medicare For All as Bernie originally proposed will save trillions over 10 years, according to the Lancet, a highly respected medical journal. If you just think about it logically, private insurance companies are an unnecessary, extremely expensive middle man between patients and doctors. Administrative costs are insanely high. Every program or policy Bernie's proposed has explained how it's paid for..
    11
  19. I understand how you feel (I volunteered for Bernie). I'd love to see him run as and Independent for POTUS. But I think in his position now, he's influencing many people directly. We must continue the fight til it's reality. #MedicareForAll #UniversalHealthcare #Solidarity #NotMeUs!

  20.  @c.san.8751  ask any elderly person or disabled person who has US Medicare coverage "Do you want to go back to private insurance, with high premiums, high deductibles, and hours of arguing on the phone when some idiot at the private insurance company is told to deny life-saving procedures?" Guaranteed the elderly or disabled person will choose Medicare every time.

  22.  @t2k777  that is not true. Bernie has the nickname Amendment King for his ability to work with people who have different ideas. A simple Google search will show what he's accomplished, and there are plenty of videos where he's out in the heat and cold with striking workers like Teamsters.
    8
  23.  @tedkirk7755  I'm not a Dem. I volunteered for Bernie but I've realized the DNC would never let him win. I don't belong to any political parties.

  24. You're absolutely 💯 correct!

  25. Thank you so much for your tireless fight, Bernie. Because of you, there are millions of #NotMeUs! #Democracy #UnionStrong

  26. Well said! #NotMeUs #Solidarity

  27. That's an excellent documentary. I always knew that social media used algorithms and is extremely manipulative and addictive, by design. But The Social Dilemma really freaked me out. I have been limiting my social media time since seeing that documentary.

  32. Maybe the teachers are also (correctly)concerned about safety, with the insane number of school shootings in the US..
    6
  33.  @Nan-59  such a tragedy, people are being driven away from teaching because of gun violence. And all the children learning "active shooter drills" is just heartbreaking. It doesn't have to be this way. From 1994-2004 there was a decade of significantly reduced gun fatalities due to semiautomatic weapons being illegal. That legislation needs to be passed again.

  34. He hasn't been silent at all. Pay more attention. Smh
    6
  35.  @juneelle370  he's even nicknamed Amendment King for his ability to work effectively with GOP
    5
  36.  @galemartin9155  1. He's nicknamed The Amendment King for a reason. Google his many accomplishments. 2. He's not in the boomer generation. 3. There are millions of #NotMeUs 🔥

  37. ​​ @wayneburgess2885 do you like high gas prices? Paying crazy amounts for prescriptions? Corporate greed. He's talking about huge, multi-billion dollar companies. #Solidarity #UnionStrong

  38. Thank you for your service. I'm sorry you've suffered and been let down. Just know millions of us support Bernie and his policies, and will never give up. #NotMeUs

  43. Thank you, Senator Bernie Sanders, for your tireless work for the people. All of us who are the pro-choice majority must be willing to rally, march, and protest. #NotMeUs

  44. There are millions of #NotMeUs! And we aren't giving up..

  45. We can't give up. #NotMeUs. Phone bank. Knock on doors. Sign petitions. Attend rallies. Strike with workers. Bernie can't do it alone.
    4
  46. I volunteered for Bernie in 2020. Do you know that some people, when the d n c chose Biden as their candidate (which they unfortunately have the legal right to do), some who donated to Bernie's campaign asked for and received refunds?? Name another candidate who would do that....you can't.
    4
  47. ​​ @jeremyserwer2586 xactly 💯 I volunteered for Bernie. He's got more energy than most younger Senators. He gets right out there, striking with union workers in all kinds of weather, and he's known as the Amendment King for his ability to work with GOP to find common policy goals. I have a friend who voted for Bernie, back when he was running for mayor of Burlington. Bernie is a gem. #NotMeUs

  48.  @woofwoof-w4g  I'm glad I did, too. I saw his TED talk about what he did for Braddock, PA and immediately knew I had to support him.

  52. It may seem futile, but more people who share his beliefs and policies need to run for Congress...people who can't be bought and controlled by billionaires.

  54.  @808zhu  well said!

  55.  @heidibenner1577  Bernie has been fighting for workers' rights for decades. This summer he was out in the heat striking with Teamsters.

  56. To help you understand the difference between a million and a billion: A million seconds is 3 weeks. A billion seconds is 31 years. You're welcome. Also, Bernie pays his taxes.

  59. He's trying but he's only one person. That's why his 2020 slogan was #NotMeUs. We need more people to run for Congress who share the same beliefs.

  60. Millions of us not giving up. Phone banking for progressive candidates. Helping people get to the polls. Running for office ourselves or electing local and state progressive candidates. #Solidarity #NotMeUs

  66. I understand your point. Bernie is one of the few people in government who actually takes action. He took busses full of people up to Canada for cheaper insulin, before Biden capped the price. Bernie has marched and protested with nurses unions. He's a gem.

  67. Yes..Independent ticket!

  70.  @JamesKovacic  those are contributing factors but the dnc would never let Bernie be the nominee. Both major parties fear him because he fights for the working people, not billionaires. I wish he'd run Independent but unfortunately I don't think he will.. He's a rare gem.
    2
  71. Bernie lives in Vermont. He has a small condo in d.c. where he works( kind of a long commute. ) His wife inherited a summer cottage. Bernie has always been willing to pay his fair share of taxes and never ever accepted money from billionaires. He's out in the streets I'm the heat , in the cold, with striking workers. #Teamsters #LivingWage #NotMeUs #UnionStrong

  72.  @audreywitko1445  I agree! Bernie is an absolute gem. Katie is also a fighter..love it when she whips out her white board and grills Big Pharma CEOs.

  73.  @lindablackwell4852  I'll be phone banking for progressive candidates at every level of government.

  75.  @chazbennett8676  ranked choice voting would be best. Start at the local level, then state..from the bottom up..

  76.  @frankd.506  absolutely 💯

  77.  @Semper_Iratus I didn't deflect. the topic you brought up is campaign contributions. List your source for your numbers.

  78. Bernie has been speaking about this for a long time. Pay attention.
    2
  79.  @rack9458  most wealth is inherited.
    2
  80. But you are wrong. Unions such as Teamsters (who Bernie has been supporting when they rally, outside in the heat, in the cold) are getting more demands met. Nurses got their demands met. Amazon workers are forming unions and forcing Amazon to provide better benefits. This isn't a sprint, it's a marathon. #Solidarity #UnionStrong #NotMeUs
    2
  81. I'd vote for them in a heartbeat. Jon Stewart has proven over the past couple of decades he knows what being a public servant means. He's shamed Congress into extending healthcare benefits for 9/11 first responders, then did it again for the veterans of burn pit exposure. He held their feet to the fire. Sanders/Stewart should run on an Independent ticket, so the DNC has no control over them.

  84.  @nmt9648  that's why the Georgia runoff election on Nov 6th is so important. Warnock must win for Dems to get a true Senate majority.
    2
  85.  @Laura-LaFauve  yes, and I also like Katie Porter, she's a fighter.
    2
  86.  @Laura-LaFauve  I love when she's questioning ultra rich, big pharma CEOs and she's got her whiteboard with all her numbers ready..

  87. Doctors and nurses would benefit from Medicare For All. It's the greedy insurance companies who wouldn't ..We must keep fighting. #MedicareForAll #UniversalHealthcare #NotMeUs

  88. Bernie should run as an Independent this time, with a young, progressive VP!

  90. Education is lacking in some parts of the country, and people don't even know the meaning of the insults they repeat.
    2
  91.  @lifeisagift.cherisheverymoment this shouldn't be true in the US in 2024, but there are many places without internet access. There are places where critical thinking isn't being taught, and people aren't even taught how our government is structured. When funding for education is cut, that's the result.

  92. I volunteered for him in 2020 and went to one of his rallies. Everyone there was so helpful, caring, and welcoming. #NotMeUs! #Solidarity

  93. Vote at every level for people who support progressive policies.

  94. I'm Independent. I don't like either party. But the GOP is far worse. Especially "maga" GOP.

  98.  @teejay3272  equally important to his amendments is the fact that he is willing to literally march with workers, such as the Teamsters, to get better benefits and wages. I volunteered for Bernie in 2020. You have no clue how hard he works and how many unions he's helping. #UnionStrong #NotMeUs
    2
  99. Stop purposefully misrepresenting reality by pretending Bernie has three mansions. Bernie lives in Vermont and works in D.C. So, like everyone else in Congress, he has a residence in D.C. It's a small condo btw. His wife inherited a summer home. He's in his 80s and written a few best sellers. (No ghost writer. He actually wrote them.) He pays his share of taxes and proposes he pay even more.

  100.  @jhor729  DNC vs will of the people. The DNC isn't even allowing primary debates in 2024...it's insane. They're just openly choosing Joe
    1
  101. His words raise awareness so people know what the f**k is happening. Most politicians would prefer we didn't know it's cheaper in all those other countries. Congress is made up of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Vote blue and Democrats will have the majority needed to get laws passed. Kamala Harris will gladly sign them if they provide more affordable healthcare.

  102.  @robertjenkins6132  Jamie Raskin would be great..don't know if he's interested..

  105. Don't get discouraged. More and more people are opening their minds to ideas like universal healthcare, pre-k programs and affordable daycare, 32-hr work weeks...millions of first time voters will hit the polls this November, and they want unions and living wages, they want to make their own healthcare decisions, they want increased Social Security. #Solidarity #NotMeUs

  124. Bernie is called the Amendment King because he's responsible for working with both sides of the aisle, and has been part of passing hundreds of pieces of legislation. He also goes out in the heat and in the cold to strike with union workers. He's been active since the 1960s in helping the working class.

  128. He's in his eighties and has written a few best-selling books. (Not with a ghost writer. He wrote the books.) He's worked as a public servant for most of his life, fighting for your right to earn a living wage and get healthcare. He did have other jobs. He worked as a carpenter, in a hospital, and in a school. Corruption? He didn't take money from billionaires when he ran for President. Stop repeating lies.

  129. Barry I understand how you feel. I volunteered for Bernie and I loathe our 2-party system. But Bernie is pushing Biden left. The student loan forgiveness never would have happened without his influence.

  130. Do you have any concept of math? A million and a billion are quite different numbers.

  131.  @dtruth5769  I volunteered for Bernie. He wants everyone, including himself, to pay their fair share of taxes. He flies business class btw. You've no clue what you're talking about.

  133. Eisenhower was the last of the GOP who had some decent policies. Then Reagan started the trickle-down bs, which never worked, and I can't believe some people still think it might work.

  135. Bernie ran as a Dem in 2020. I volunteered for him. Unfortunately the d n c has legal right to determine the primary candidate. Biden was chosen. I don't agree with many of Biden's policies, but in Nov the choice will be either Biden, or Donald, who has publicly stated he wants to do away with the US Constitution. He's responsible for 140 police getting injured and some dying, because of Don's inaction, as the Calitol was being stormed on Jan 6, 2021. He says he'll pardon those who hurt and killed police officers and others on Jan. 6th He also takes credit for Roe v Wade being overturned, because he packed the Supreme Court with people who have lied under oath. Donald has been found civilly liable for sexual assault. I'm not a Democrat, but the choice between those two is easy: Biden.
    1
  136. Bernie did run in 2020. I volunteered for him. The d n c made sure Joe was the candidate. But Bernie has been helpful with supporting unions all over the US. Workers are seeing they deserve to have union representation. Bernie was influential in the student loan debt forgiveness which Biden passed. And Bernie has always been active in decreasing the cost of life-saving medications, too.
