Sanders: Our Job Is to Reinvigorate Democracy So We Have One Person, One Vote, Not Billionaires Buying Elections

‘Within a corrupt political system where billionaires buy elections, our job is to reinvigorate democracy’

EXCERPT:

SANDERS: "And if you are African-American or Latino, then you got a whole bunch of additional hurdles that you’ve got to overcome. You have to deal with the racism that exists in the healthcare industry, the racism that exists in the financial sector, the racism that exists in education. So if you are black in St. Louis, if you’re a black all over America, the likelihood is, not always but the likelihood is your kids are going to get an even worse education than white kids are going to get. So you’ve got all that stuff out there, and what is our job today? It is not hard. It’s to say that within a corrupt political system where billionaires buy elections, our job is to reinvigorate democracy so we have one person, one vote, not billionaires buying elections.”
