Dem candidate Sanders wants fundamental changes in Wall Street
Warren, who is credited as the architect of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, declined efforts by some supporters to enter the 2016 presidential race and has refused to offer any endorsement of the current candidates for the party’s nomination. “The message is that Hillary Clinton is the most electable Democrat”.
“I’m a progressive who likes to get things done and I will get into that White House”, Clinton said.
“The first, and maybe most, important is to make sure that if a police officer breaks the law, that officer – like any other public official – must be held accountable”, Sanders said.
The comments come hours after North Korea claimed to have tested a hydrogen bomb. Bernie Sanders promised to remake the financial system to serve America’s working families. “They’ll have to push North Korea to start adhering to global agreements”.
STEPHANOPOULOS: How do we lean on China?
SANDERS: We need the Fed to act with that same boldness today, that fierce sense of urgency to combat unemployment and low wages. North Korea is a paranoid, isolated nation.
“When you have a hydrogen bomb, if that’s true, you are a threat to China, as well”, he added.
STEPHANOPOULOS: How about this argument from Hillary Clinton yesterday?
“I honestly didn’t even know that Nevada was a caucus state until I got involved with the Bernie Sanders’ campaign”, she said.
JANICE CABAN: I think people trust him, and he’s very honest.

Clinton has also been criticised for close ties with financial tycoons on Wall Street, and faced criticism for eliciting political donations from them while she was a New York Senator from 2001 to 2009.
SANDERS: Well, actually they are not. We’re talking about the banks that have assets equivalent to 60 percent of the GDP of America.
“We can no longer tolerate an economy and a political system that has been rigged by Wall Street to benefit the wealthiest Americans in this country at the expense of everyone else”, Sanders noted. As for Clinton, he said the challenge was simple: “How do you keep them motivated when folks think this is in the bag?”
“We need to level the playing field and end too big to fail”, she wrote in her series of tweets. Secretary Clinton is wrong.
“I have yet to recover from Trump’s shock that women go to the bathroom, I’m still recovering from that”, Sanders quipped. That is exactly what the core is.
Views of the two leading Democratic contenders are highly partisan and ideological, with large majorities of Democrats and liberals viewing each positively, while Republicans and conservatives have mostly unfavorable opinions.
Analysts said Sanders’ plans to break up the large banks would be hard to achieve and is not the only way to limit their size or future bailouts. Or, if you don’t like those fees, then choose another financial institution or credit union.
Individual companies were also name checked by Mr Sanders.
“Think hard about the people who are presenting themselves to you, their experience, their qualifications, their positions”, she said. $200 billion in fines. “Not only will big banks not be too big to fail, but big-time bankers will not be too big to jail”.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Senator Sanders, thanks for joining us this morning.
