Bernie Sanders sets socialism speech date to compete with Hillary Clinton

During the debate, Clinton questioned Sanders’ 2013 health care legislation, saying it would dismantle the law and empower Republican governors like Terry Branstad of Iowa to administer the health care system in each state. Sanders’ campaign shot back that her approach to health care was all about her financial donors.

She says she was the only one at last weekend’s Democratic debate who wouldn’t raise taxes on middle-class families.

The Democratic front-runner said Sanders’ approach would “eliminate” major pieces of the health care system, including private insurance, Medicaid, the Tricare system for veterans and other coverage. In past years he’s introduced a single-payer plan. Private insurance companies would be sidelined to selling supplemental coverage and his plan specifies that Medicare beneficiaries would be covered during the transition. “I found them a little bit silly, a little bit absurd”, Sanders said when asked by Yahoo’s Katie Couric if he took offense at her comments.

“It is a stretch”, Bill Clinton said.

Clinton has endorsed raising the federal minimum wage to $12 an hour, a level below the $15 an hour that Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley have sought.

Clinton leads in the polls, but Senator Bernie Sanders tried to slow down the front runner, questioning her vote as senator to approve the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Her friends on Wall Street from the big banks, have given her hundreds of thousands of dollars in speakin fees, and are the ones that will be guiding our country’s economic policies should Hillary Clinton be elected.

The industry also supported her husband, former President Bill Clinton, during his two White House campaigns and backed her campaigns to serve NY in the Senate. “He’s raising taxes to pay for relief for middle-income and working people”, he said.

Clinton was holding a rally Tuesday in Dallas.

The union represents nurses, health care workers and other caregivers and is among the most ethnically diverse unions in the country.

Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton said, “We have to think of ISIS as a leading threat of an worldwide terror network”. The former NY senator invoked the 9/11 attacks during the event to defend herself against suggestions by her main rival, Vermont Sen. Clinton now has several large union endorsements accounting for about 10 million workers, an organizational force that will help her against Sanders.
