Sanders: ‘We Are Going to Win the Presidency’

‘We need to create an economy that works for all of us and not just a handful of billionaires’

STEPHANOPOULOS: "Look at the crowds coming out for our next guest. Nearly 5,000 there in Colorado. And that is not all, so many headlines right now for Hillary Clinton’s top challenger, Senator Bernie Sanders. He joins us now from Cochran, New Hampshire this morning. Senator, thank you for joining us this morning. We looked at the Keene Sentinel. They say you’re up with a crowd in Keene, New Hampshire just the other day. And you told them, let me tell you a secret, we’re going to win New Hampshire. Care to repeat that prediction now?"
SANDERS: "We are going to win New Hampshire. We’re going to win Iowa and I think we’re going to win the Democratic nomination, and I think we’re going to win the presidency. And I’ll tell you why, the American people are sick and tired of seeing the disappearance of the great middle class of this country. They’re sick and tired of working longer hours for low wages while at the same time 99 percent of all new income generated is going to the top 1 percent and the top one-tenth-of-one-percent now owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent. George, we have seen in the last 30 years a massive shift of wealth and income from ordinary Americans to the very richest people in this country and the American people are saying enough is enough. We need to create an economy that works for all of us and not just a handful of billionaires."
