"We Must & Can Aim High": Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich on Endorsing Bernie Sanders

We speak with Robert Reich, the former labor secretary under President Bill Clinton from 1993 to 1997, about his decision to formally endorse Senator Bernie Sanders for president on the Democratic ticket. "What worries me about other candidates, particularly Hillary Clinton, is that the message seems to be we cannot aim high, or we must not be ambitious, we must not try to be bold, because we can’t get there. That, to me, is exactly the wrong message," Reich says. "In terms of mobilizing Americans and organizing and getting the kind of response we need from Americans to push Congress, to change Congress, to get a government that is responsible for us, the message should be we must and can aim high. We can do it. And we’ve done it before in this country." This comes as four top economists and former advisers for Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton have issued an open letter to Senator Sanders criticizing his economic platform. Reich is the author of many books, mostly recently, "Saving Capitalism: For the Many, Not the Few."

Clinton And Sanders Clash Over Path To Universal Health Care | ThinkProgress

As the leading Republican presidential candidates are busy offering incoherent plans that would repeal Obamacare and make the insurance landscape more confusing — Donald Trump, for instance, put out a 40-word health care platform that makes very little sense — the Democratic candidates are having a substantive debate about how to make universal health care a reality...

Watch Bernie Sanders Go After Obama's Opponents in this Passionate Rebuttal of Racism

"By the way, I am appalled, people can agree with Barack Obama, you can disagree with Barack Obama, but anybody who doesn't understand that the kind of obstructionism and hatred thrown at this man, the idea of making him a delegitimate president by suggesting he was not born in America because his dad came from Kenya—no one asked me. I'm a citizen and my father came from Poland. Gee, what's the difference? Maybe the color of our skin... All of us together have got to say no to xenophobia and to racism and to bigotry of all forms."
