I'm a 45 year old white guy who grew up in the south, in a conservative, Rush Limbaugh listening family. I'm happy to say listening to Bernie and AOC seriously helped me in my metamorphosis from GOP/libertarian to committed liberal/progressive. It was actually the hate & vitriol from the right towards you two that really made me pay attention to you because they were so irrationally scared of you. Keep fighting for what's right. Workers of the world unite!

That’s a beautiful story! I too used to be a diehard Libertarian. But then I realized how idealistic I was being and allowed myself to look harder at reality. We need nuance and cooperation, not just a religious belief in unfettered free markets and the invisible hand. Markets are a tool that must serve all humans or they’re barbaric.

Amazing people who are of the same mind. I live in the UK and we have just the same issues that you have experienced and lived through. However, we all have had the opportunity to access affordable healthcare in the past but this is beginning to change in the UK. Long waits for surgery, lack of funding to support people with long term healthcare needs. Doctors who are just starting out in their careers already disillusioned with their earnings. The people who support our creaking NHS are the hard working nurses, many of them immigrants, the cleaners, the on the ground office staff and porters and kitchen staff. Sadly this is going downhill. At 75, I recently had a pacemaker fitted after many years with deteriorating health. During the surgery the consultant said, very sarcastically, 'And this all free on the NHS '. I was dumbfounded. My husband and I both came from working class families. We are not graduates, but sacrificed to enable both our children to have the opportunity to go to university and have financial security. Neither of them had an easy journey but both worked hard, as we expected them to and have done well. We are fast mirroring the States' with an influx of thousands of migrants who see the UK as a safe haven. But we are experiencing seeing our resources diminishing. The haves and have-nots still exist as always. The way things are going in the world, exhausting our natural resources, climate change....... I could go on. The world needs more Alexandrias and Bernie, but what do we get? Trump and Putin and the rest of the greedy warmongers who continue to exploit and destroy. 😢😢😢😢😢

I grew up in a wealthy town in Westchester. After college I moved to Manhattan. It was in 1969. As a white woman, I never went above 96th Street. Bronx went from being a lower middle class community to a Puerto Rican enclave. It wasn’t considered safe. Everything AOC is saying is so true. We didn’t know about the lives in the Bronx. But as a single mom, I soon learned about poverty and the stress it brings. So often it’s the people you don’t”see.” They are the dishwashers, the janitors, the garbage collectors. Everyone deserves a decent life. That includes health care and a wage where you can bring up your family without having to work three jobs.

Dad did not make a lot of money back then in the mines, and it was very dangerous to work in a mine back then. Even though we were actually quite poor, as kids, we didn't realize it.

It gradually became clear to me that many things about the conservative views I held, were not in harmony with my moral and ethical values. I've deconstructed my previous understanding of history, politics, the world, and come out the other side as a passionate socialist and progressive. Bernie was the first in politics who gave me a sense of hope for an alternative that genuinely embodies human caring and dignity. I will vote for AOC if she chooses to run for president someday.

There actually is a LOT more similar about her upbringing and the upbringing of blue collar rural Americans than there are differences and if only the right wing would realize that the average American regardless of party, struggles and works hard to just get by, and drop all the baloney fringe social issue garbage, then they'd wake up and realize it's corporate corruption that has turned our government into a malignant mess. And that's what the status quo wants; to keep the average people fighting in ignorance so they don't realize the money bag holding corporate swine standing over them poking both sides with a stick.

Thank you Google algorithm? Well, however this ended up on my home page, I'm so grateful, because that was a FANTASTIC interview! As a two time Bernie Sanders State Delegate in Hawaii, I was soooo pissed off when the DNC, DCCC stole the election from Bernie, but this interview shows the impact Bernie has had, just by running for President. Now.... when will AOC run for President? 🤩

@@phillipcraddock8248because she shows all the qualities that we want in leadership. She's open and willing to talk out ideas, she's strong enough to challenge the system and has already shown that she can win against a rigged system. She's highly intelligent and able to learn, which is something the GOP has completely forgotten, the GOP is stuck 50 years in the past. Their policies have never worked, and the only reason they stay in power is due to propagandized fear.

I agree. In a world without Bernie I don't think the US would even exist anymore as even a figment of a democracy. Trump didn't change anyone's mind or inspire anyone, and never will. He merely latched on to longstanding fears like a leech on an open wound. Bernie and AOC et al. changed the minds or hearts of millions. (The discipline of political science, as opposed to anthropology and psychology, has a very hard time understanding this, and mistakes winning the Electoral College once against a former First Lady for evidence of political genius.)

Hi from the UK. I wish we had a Bernie Sanders in our political system. Things aren't as bad here because we still have the NHS but the corruption in our current Government is unprecedented. They are the equivalent of your Republicans and to them 'socialism'is a dirty word. Things rapidly deteriorated for both our countries in the Thatcher/Reagan years and the gap between rich and poor has become wider. We now have more people living in poverty, especially children, in both our countries than at any other time since the war. It is shameful when you think we are 2 of the richest countries on the planet. Antonia sounds like a younger version of Bernie...maybe she'll make President one day!! She'd definitely knock spots off any of the Republicans I've seen! Solidarity with all of you democrats💙💙💙 . I'm rooting for Biden
