CBS Guest: Sanders’s ‘Talking Points’ Popular, But ‘He’s Maybe Not the Right Vessel’

‘So the idea of fairness, the idea of income equality, all those things that he’s playing very strongly on are going to be critical talking points, I think, for any Democratic candidate’

ESPUELAS: "Well, I think he’s also talking to an angry group of voters who feel disillusioned by the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, the system in general. And here you have a very articulate voice of dissent, that he’s saying things that perhaps make him unelectable, but at the same time have a natural appeal. So the idea of fairness, the idea of income equality, all those things that he’s playing very strongly on are going to be critical talking points, I think, for any Democratic candidate. He’s maybe not the right vessel for it."
