@@jrsinsf really, you don't support Bernie because he is too old? That's the only thing bothering you? I thought ageism was just a joke but here it is I guess. Old or young, Bernie has the best ideas to save your country.
@lyla debusy Bernie IS the Democratic show. Every issue being run on was brought up by HIM. No one was even talking about the majority of these issues. He completely changed the conversation.
You missed the retort! Here I'll finish it for ya Colbert. Bernie Sanders: "We are spending twice as much per capita on health care as the Canadians or any other major country on earth." Joe Biden: "This is America." Bernie Sanders: "Yeah, but Americans don't want to pay twice as much as other countries."
That really was the oddest response. Was he saying that Americans can easily afford to pay twice as much? Was he saying that Americans want to pay twice as much just so they can say they're not those sissy socialist countries? What exactly did "This is America" mean?
And US is 10 times larger than Canada by population so Medicare for All should be a lot cheaper than it is in Canada per capita. That's the logic of insurance. (Economies of scale)
@@an5192 I agree with you on principle, and am a big supporter of MfA. As someone who works in healthcare, I do want to say that we have an issue here that Canada and Europe do not - and that is a culture of healthcare for profit. Of the ten or so doctors I've worked for, less than half could I say I felt sure were not in it for the money. And, to a degree, I can't blame them - not when their college tuitions cost them six figures. Address the cost of education alongside public healthcare, and we may just inspire a massive cultural shift in our healthcare industry over maybe ten years or so. For now though, because the prices of healthcare services reflect a need to pay high doctor salaries and profits, I have doubts about how much MfA can reduce the overall cost - but to the average American, it's certainly a lifesaver.
It will show up in the primaries, not necessarily in the polls. He built the infrastructure in 2016 and has worked consistently on it, nobody has his ground game. I am quite convinced he will win the primaries and Warren will drop out, right now they are splitting a lot of the same polling numbers.

Trump has plans to sell off all the Democrat voting States to Putin and Kim before the 20/20 election begins. That way he will be sure to win. He'd be willing to trade all those States for Greenland if Norway would go for the deal. Do you know why Trump wanted to buy Greenland.....just to be able to say he's a big believer in saving the environment....by buying Green!!!!!

@@kappadarwin9476 If Yang stopped supporting UBI, he would probably poll better with people not currently supporting him, but might lose a large chunk of his initial supporters. In addition to that, the reason for dropping UBI would prove that he is choosing positions strategically in order to win, rather than what he genuinely considers to be priorities to focus on. This would make him lose even more supporters.
bigpimpdaddy69 bigpimpdaddy69 First off, Bernie Sanders isn't socialist, he's a social democrat. It's a common misconception. Socialism is used in Venzuela, social democracy is used in places like Scandinavia, Denmark, Norway and Sweden, countries which often rank high in list of countries with the lowest income inequality, highest standard of living, and the worlds happiest countries. And as for your question about paying for Sanders' proposals, let's start with his Medicare for all plan. To pay for that, taxes would probably rise a bit, but you would not have to pay co-payments, premiums or deductibles. No out of pocket expenses, just a little more in tax. 🙂
bigpimpdaddy69 Oh, I’m really sorry about that, I didn’t realize that you were being sarcastic. English isn’t my native language, so stuff like sarcasm can be difficult to pick up on. Especially online. Thank you for not being angry that I misunderstood you🙂
Lmao yang's giving out 120,000. People spend wayyy more than that on campaigns. And even if he doesn't win, maybe itll actually open people's eyes a bit about how beneficial ubi would be
But why is it necessary to give 18 year olds a thousand dollars a month? And this money also goes to billionaires and millionaires who don’t need government handouts. The whole policy just doesn’t make sense, and if it went to the senate it would shock me if more than 3 people vote for it

Fred Curry I often wonder if anyone in the USA government has ever sat down with their counterparts in other counties to discuss the issues of government run healthcare. The ‘USA is the greatest country in the world’ fails to impress when you see the healthcare problems when it is money driven. I have never heard anyone say that they have had talks with other countries about how they dealt with the problems associated with the change over.
Nameless Progressive Clone The quality is the best, if you have the insurance or can afford to pay in cash. It isn’t the best for everyone when people are denied care for one thing or another. There is no reason anyone should be going bankrupt because of medical bills. If we are such a rich country, we should be able to provide it for everyone.
As a nurse, I can tell you that American doctors and private hospitals are going to fight Medicare for all. Most don’t even want to take Medicare patients because the reimbursement is low. State run hospitals we have now, are training centers for med students and nurses-they are different than private hospitals. Wait time for doctor appointments, tests, and surgery will be long. These are facts seen in countries with universal healthcare, such as Canada and the United Kingdom. I’m not saying that I don’t think Medicare for all is a bad idea, but it will be a nightmarish scenario for years in our Capitalist Country.
Thank you, Joe Biden, for endorsing Bernie Sanders, even if it is from another gaffe! Joe Biden sure misses listening to the wireless and going to the talkies.

Then we can have Yang, Gabbard, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Tlaib and others like them hopefully for years to come. But Bernie first. He is the leader of the revolution right now
Lol! Well, Yang decided to spend his promotional budget on making a difference for people rather than on TV ads. He wants people to deeply consider what the UBI could really mean for people and this is a way to get them to try that on. While the other candidates duke it out, he stays cool and sticks to policy. That's the kind of president I want. Even while he is CONSISTENTLY given the least time in each debate, he makes the best use of his time. A very smart guy with great ideas, especially when you look beyond the surface. Definitely pro-Yang. BTW, did you notice that SNL finally hired their first asian actor? His name is Yang too.

@@makesmefeellikeatalltree8250 In a post-debate interview he said that they had a bunch of lawyers sign it off and Rick Hansen, professor of law and political science at UC Irvine and election law expert wrote on Twitter "I don’t see a legal problem so long as it is not tied to voting or registering".
A UBI, while a nice idea, is not remotely feasible in the near future with the skyrocketing deficit and recent $1.5 trillion tax cut for the wealthy. While it would benefit the economy, there are far better, more feasible and more likely ways to do that, such as a wealth tax, a marginal tax of 60-70% on highest earners and a boost to the Fed minimum wage which hasn't been raised in more than 10 YEARS. Then we could forgive a lot of student debt which would also boost the economy significantly because thousands of students would be putting that $20k-150k back into the economy instead of paying off loans. There's no way a UBI would EVER get passed with any Republicans still in Congress, they won't even allow people to have basic healthcare or a living wage, you think they're gonna let people just get free money? Fuck no they won't. Yang unfortunately doesn't have a chance as president and should run for a Senate seat if one is open in his state because there are 22 GOP seats up for grabs next year and we need those just as much, if not slightly more so, than the presidency.
James Skyvaper well said. I don’t hate yang (or any candidate) but this 1k to everyone plan is not feasible. I’m not sure your 70% tax on high earners is feasible either though (unless I’m miss reading that). Warrens 2% on the above 10million earners seems more likely to cover education. I will say getting rid of student debt is a good plan in any shape or form and finally can everyone agree whoever the democratic nominee is everyone will get behind him/her.
@@Chamelionroses Good question as we know the Republicans never play fair (they could not possibly win if they did). The only way to over ride the gerrymandering and any other election b.s. is to have a massive turn out. I personally believe there will be a massive turnout of young people this time if either Sanders or Warren is the candidate. If Biden is the candidate, the turn out will definitely be smaller.

Just now, I think he’s “using” the experiences for political gain. Finally, I would be much more impressed if he’d been contributing to our society during his years out of office but instead, he went silent & dropped off the map. Now, he’s suddenly back to try to saunter into the highest position in the land. In essence, I see him as someone who feels entitled. He won’t and can’t earn my vote. He’s not an inadequate person.

And they actually cut the top of the poll off on the screen that showed Bernie in the #1 slot.

Because of his past, middle America and disenfranchised Trump voters view him as too far left, even if he isn't any more. Not fair, but true.

Here is a schedule of state primaries, don't forget to vote for Yang in yours. www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/us/elections/2020-presidential-election-calendar.html?auth=login-smartlock
In 2016, I voted Bernie in the primary, but no more! The #BernieOrBust crowd got us "bust" and screwed all women, latinos, immigrants, and all Americans with preexisting conditions. Bernie never even admitted Putin backed him against Clinton, even though it's as crystal clear as Putin backing Don the Con. Warren has my support this time around.
Because he IS the front runner. I know he's too Republican for everyone's liking but everyone longs for Obama's touch. What polls is he tanking, anyway?
Because they are trying to trick the DNC voters into believing Sanders doesn't have a chance... but he is the true front runner. When he is President they will still pretend he isn't. They are afraid of Bernie's revolution.
Trump won because of the rust belt. People forget that. Some people don't understand that people voted for Trump because they are desperate. Their jobs have been outsourced and they can't afford their prescriptions. Of course they are going to vote for the candidate that says I will give you the best and cheapest health insurance and your jobs are coming back because we are making America great again. Why would anyone in the rust belt who lost jobs due to outsourcing vote for a guy who was for Nafta and TPP? We need a candidate who is strong on jobs to get the rust belt votes.
I understand treating all of them equally, but Stephen is better than making fun of people for things they cannot help, especially someone working as hard as Bernie Sanders.
They don't want to talk about Warren or Sanders but Sanders to them is worse because Warren although she goes far for us she doesn't go far enough while Biden is at least a corporate democrat and literally stands for lack of change
Colbert's mimicry is hilarious. He nails Trump and his 'Bernie' is dead on. The "bumblebee" 🐝and "anaphylactic shock" 🤯 remarks had me on the floor. O..M..G! 🤣🐝
@C-Ann W ha ha Bernie Sanders just wants healthcare and education for all.. Perteey basic stuff that other developed nations have and their citizens are happy to pay for it.
Why didn't they play the whole Biden clip where it explains why kids need to be around the record player? I'll just post it here: In the second hour of the debate, ABC correspondent Linsey Davis asked Biden to reflect on a remark he made in the 1970s: “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather. I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation, and I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.” Davis said to Biden, “You said that some 40 years ago, but as you stand here tonight, what responsibility do you think that Americans need to take to repair the legacy of slavery in our country?” Biden’s answer was staggeringly incoherent, obscuring, to his own benefit, what was, underneath, a horrifyingly racist answer. Here’s his whole response: "Well, they have to deal with the - look, there’s institutional segregation in this country. And from the time I got involved, I started dealing with that. Redlining, banks, making sure we are in a position where - look, you talk about education. I propose that what we take the very poor schools, the Title I schools, triple the amount of money we spend from $15 to $45 billion a year. Give every single teacher a raise to the $60,000 level. Number two, make sure that we bring in to help the teachers deal with the problems that come from home. The problems that come from home. We have one school psychologist for every 1,500 kids in America today. It’s crazy. The teachers are - I’m married to a teacher, my deceased wife is a teacher. They have every problem coming to them. Make sure that every single child does, does in fact, have 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds go to school. Not day care, school. We bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children. It’s not that they don’t want to help, they don’t want - they don’t know quite what to do. Play the radio, make sure the television - excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night, the phone - make sure that kids hear words. A kid coming from a very poor school - a very poor background - will hear 4 million words fewer spoken by the time they get there." That's way worse than Julian breaking decorum.
So basically his plan to help heal the racial divide in this country is to make children listen to just any random words? Kind of sounds like he wanted to just say they just have to deal with it at first, and then dodged the question.
