Marc Morial: Clintons Have a ‘Track Record’; ‘People Are Just Getting to Know’ Bernie

‘He also starts out in a place where people are just getting to know him for the first time’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
WOLF: "The -- I guess the question is this. As president of the national urban league, I assume you've worked closely with Bill and Hillary Clinton over the years. Has Bernie Sanders been directly involved in the issues that you're promoting as president of the national urban league?"
MORIAL: " So this is -- this is true when it comes to Bernie Sanders. My first opportunity to meet Bernie Sanders is when he attended the national urban league's 2015 conference in ft. Lauderdale, Florida. But Bernie Sanders and I did have a telephone conversation about two or three years ago when he called me to talk about a youth employment bill that he was introducing. But certainly there's been a long standing I think relationship with Hillary Clinton, with Bill Clinton, and many leaders of cities and many leaders in the urban community and many African-American leaders. So the track record is there. I think with Bernie Sanders as an acknowledgment that he's been a proponent of Progressive causes. But I think he also starts out in a place where people are just getting to know him for the first time."
