Bernie Sanders To Announce Presidential Run Vermont Public Radio

VPR News has learned from several sources that Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will announce his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday.

Sanders will release a short statement on that day and then hold a major campaign kickoff in Vermont in several weeks.

Audio from this story will be posted at approximately 11 a.m. on Wednesday, April 29.

Sanders' entry into the Democratic race ensures that Hillary Clinton will face a challenge to win the support of the liberal wing of the party.

Sanders' basic message will be that the middle class in America has been decimated in the past two decades while wealthy people and corporations have flourished.

His opposition to a proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal (T.P.P.) shows how he plans to frame this key issue of his campaign.

I would rather see him nominated instead of Ol' Money Bags. Of course he will have to be fitted up with all the life support equipment before the campaign.
 
He'll never raise the money it will take to fight the massive fortunes from the Kochs/Adelson but I'd vote for him in a heartbeat.

A truly great American.

Honestly, so would I. I actually somewhat trust Bernie Sanders; I just don't agree with his view on the role government should play. He'd be a disaster, but I think he'd be an honest one.

I'd pay to watch him and Hillary fight over a tank of O2.

My dream of a Hillary presidency creating 37 states so gerrymandered to the GOP that no D president would be possible in the future is fading fast.

Why? You think he's in poor health? Not that I've ever heard.

Btw OP how come Sanders is "Grandpa"? Mitt Romney wasn't "Grandpa"... John McCain wasn't "Grandpa"... Sarah Palin wasn't "Grandma"...

It's just a sad state of affairs that our political quicksand toxic waste dump system requires a candidate to pimp with a political party to have a shot.

I think Elija Cummings should run so that he can continue the Obama Era of Racial Healing.
 
Excellent, good for him.

He's gonna start some good conversations.

Here's the question, to me anyway: Will Hillary's Democrat opponents go after her all the way, or will they hold back to protect her in the general?

.
The way the game is played......

Why is it always the rabid RWs who hate the US Constitution so much?

Why are they always SO afraid of Americans voting?

I think all of the DNC candidates will go for Hillary's throat immediately, especially since it's fully exposed thanks to the dozens of scandals surrounding her.

Old man Sanders is too crazy and far too old to be running for "symbolic" reasons. He believes that he can WIN!. At a minimum he will seek to drive the DNC even further left. He's never seen a redistribution plan, welfare state expansion, or tax increase he didn't love. He's a full on socialist wack-a-doodle.

Sanders will force hiLIARy to clarify her nebulous and oftentimes contrary positions on a variety of issues.

:thup:

I'm only afraid of the dead ones and the illegal ones voting.
And the dumb ones, but enough about you.

Yeah, I'd agree that he'd be the last one to pull any punches.

Should be interesting to watch how she handles him. I'd guess her basic posture will be to barely acknowledge his existence, if at all.

VPR News has learned from several sources that Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will announce his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday.

Sanders will release a short statement on that day and then hold a major campaign kickoff in Vermont in several weeks.

Audio from this story will be posted at approximately 11 a.m. on Wednesday, April 29.

Sanders' entry into the Democratic race ensures that Hillary Clinton will face a challenge to win the support of the liberal wing of the party.

Sanders' basic message will be that the middle class in America has been decimated in the past two decades while wealthy people and corporations have flourished.

His opposition to a proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal (T.P.P.) shows how he plans to frame this key issue of his campaign.

"If you want to understand why the middle class in America is disappearing and why we have more wealth and income inequality in America than we have had since the late 1920s, you have to address the issue of trade,” Sanders said in a phone interview on April 23.

As the longest-serving Independent member of Congress, Sanders has been a vocal critic of the influence that large corporations have on the political process.

"All of the major corporations want to continue with this trade policy. Wall Street wants to continue this trade policy. The drug companies want to continue this trade policy. But organizations representing American workers and the environment do not want to continue the trade policy. They want new trade policies,” he said.

And Sanders says it is imperative that all the Democratic presidential candidates address the issue of trade and income inequality.

"So, I think that Hillary Clinton and every candidate out there should in fact address whether or not they support this T.P.P.," Sanders said.

In the past few months, Sanders has been actively visiting many of the early presidential primary states. Just last weekend he traveled to South Carolina to address the state Democratic Party and news reports indicate that his economic message drew a lot of support at the state meeting.
