What This [presidency] Campaign Is About This

People Who Know The Economy Is Rigged In Favor Of Big Money, People Who Know That Our Middle Class Continues To Decline And We Have To Go Outside Of Establishment Politics And Economics, People Who Know That We Need To Reform A Broken Criminal Justice System And We Need Comprehensive Immigration Reform.

I Have Not Heard Almost Anybody Suggest That Raising The Minimum Wage To The Level We Have In Vermont Has Been An Impediment To Our Economy Which Is Doing Reasonably Well ... If Somebody Is Going To Work That Person Has Got To Receive At Least A Wage That They Can Go Out And Live With Dignity On. That's An Extremely Important Point.

I Believe, Along With Pope Francis And Almost All Scientists, That Climate Change Is Threatening This Planet In Horrendous Ways, And That We Have To Be Aggressive In Transforming Our Energy System Away From Fossil Fuel And Defeat The Keystone Pipeline.

The Government Of Our Great Country Belongs To All Of The People And Not Just A Handful Of The Wealthy.

The Democratic Party Has Been Very Strong In A Lot Of Areas, In Fighting To Make Our Country A Less Discriminatory Country. And That Is Enormously Important.
