The Pros And Cons Of Bernie Sanders

In this argumentative essay we are debating who would make the best presidential candidate. In my opinion, Bernie Sanders will make the best presidential candidate because he cares deeply about the people and is the oldest candidate, therefore has the most experience. He also has a passion for improving the lives of the American people.

Bernie Sanders is a Democratic candidate for president in 2016 and he has been serving in the U.S. Senate since 2006. Sanders began his career early in 1960s and it is the reason why Sanders is considered as longest-serving independent politician in U.S. congressional history. According to his website, “Bernie has been called a “practical and successful legislator” and he was dubbed the “amendment king” in the House of Representatives for passing more amendments than any other member of Congress” (“Meet Bernie”). In addition, Sanders has been the most aggressive voice on the environmental issue comparing to the Republican politicians, according from Sander’s webpage, “It is an embarrassment that Republican politicians, with few exceptions,

Sanders was born and raised in the New York City borough of Brooklyn and graduated from the University of Chicago in 1964. While a student he was an active civil rights protest organizer for the Congress of Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. After settling in Vermont in 1968, Sanders ran unsuccessful third-party campaigns for governor and U.S. senator in the early to mid-1970s. As an independent, he was elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont 's most populous city, in 1981, and was reelected three times. In 1990 he was elected to represent Vermont 's at-large congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 1991 Sanders co-founded the Congressional Progressive Caucus. He served as a congressman for 16 years before being elected to the U.S. Senate in 2006. In 2012, he was reelected with 71% of the popular

“The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.” said Franklin D. Roosevelt in his second inaugural address. Today, social inequality is highly apparent and many of the United States’ political candidates are unable to do anything to resolve it. Bernard “Bernie” Sanders, a democratic socialist, is the best candidate to resolve social inequality along with other problems the nation has today. Bernie Sanders has proven himself to be a defender of the people with his stance for social inequality and his plans on reforming the nation.

The only thing that surprises me the most is that Hillary's supporters completely failing or ignoring the fact that Bernie's supporters didn't voted Bernie because he was running for the Democratic nomination. They voted him because he was Bernie. Nowhere in Democratic establishment or in Hillary's list I can see a single agenda that can match up with what Bernie wanted to deliver. No seeing that there is no possibility of Bernie getting nominated Bernie's supporters will ultimately decide to weigh who is less evil between Trump and Hillary and vote for him or her or even for third party candidate or they can simply decide not to vote. It's their choice. Hillary's supporters can yell about denial all day long and bang their head on wall all

For the past 40 years, Sanders has defended the people. Born on September 8th 1941 in Brooklyn, New York, Bernie Sanders is an American Politician and Junior Senator for Vermont. He is seeking candidacy for the Democratic Party for the President of the United States. Sanders officially announced his campaign on April 30th of 2015.

It is important that the next leader of the USA knows how to deal with other countries. Bernie Sanders is this man. A major global issue currently is the problem of ISIS and the resulting Syrian refugees. Sanders would reach out to and help the refugees, considering it a moral responsibility, as it is. The Vermont Senator also understands that America is not the world’s policeman. It is not the job of the President to sacrifice American soldiers to decide another country’s political struggles for them. Instead, the United States ought to help in any way it can through kindness, not violence. Bernie Sanders voted to deter arms transfers to China and voted against helping India as a nuclear power. He knows that America must help others and limit global violence and terrorism through what the country has power over, rather than bullying and intimidating other countries and getting the US government involved where it doesn’t belong. It’s time America used its power for good, rather than control. It is no longer the age of imperialism; there is no need for America to expand its sphere of influence. Instead, this country should be focused on benefiting the world. Bernie Sanders suggests a multi-year plan to give Africa food and medicine. Senator Sanders understands the role of the US in relation to the rest of the world as a guiding light, not a tyrannical bully

There are currently two Democrats and three Republicans running in our 2016 presidential election. This includes Hilary Clinton and Bernie sanders as our Democrats and Ted Cruz, John Kasich, and Donald Trump as our Republicans. As previous elections, all the candidates have very specific views that oppose the other candidate’s views. This election is especially unique due to the increase in young adult’s active participation in the race. I believe that this increase is due to candidate Bernie Sanders who has shown a great appeal to young adults, including myself. He has not only shown great appeal to young adults but also white working-class voters. He has not gained much momentum with minority voters and older Americans and that has been a really big flaw with his candidacy. Sanders does have some strengths as well as weaknesses for his general election. In this analysis, I will break down Sanders’ strengths and weaknesses.

The 2016 Presidential Campaign candidate, Bernie Sanders, believes in creating a better America. In proving to the American people, rich and poor, how great the country can be if all people vote for who is trusted best as future President of the United States. The political figures in government care about money and wealth, not the people. Bernard Sanders would be the best choice for President for the main reason that he is concerned that the issues in America creates inequality for the people. Sanders supports social and economic equality.

On May 26th, 2015 Bernie Sanders announced his candidacy for presidency. Bernie stands for the underdog, the beaten down, and the abused. Bernie Sanders has been the Junior Senator from Vermont since 2007. He is an Independent that caucuses with the Democrats. In his run for presidency Bernie asked questions that others would not. He spoke on issues other candidates would not tackle. He did not just expand upon the Democratic agenda, he wrote an entirely new agenda, an agenda for the

In any form of democracy people are allowed to vote for who they think is the best candidate who any type of position. I would say now that Bernie Sanders if the best candidate for the presidential election due to his views on fixing the economy and his policies on immigration. Though I didn’t think this way before, I’ll delve into why I now do.

Bernie Sanders already has little bit of experience on being in charge. he was mayor Burlington Vermont from April 6, 1981 to April 4, 1989. so for that nine years he was a mayor. two years later he became a member of the US House of Representatives from Vermont from January 3, 1991 to January 3, 2007. so for 16 years he did this. Bernie Sanders would make a good president because he's not just looking out for the current generation but also for the future generations. Bernie Sanders cares about the well-being of everyone.  although some people may believe we should have someone more like Donald trump for president why would someone want to like someone and I end up starting a war with some of the things he says he will do if he becomes president like forcing Forcing Mexico to build a border wall. It is clear that Bernie Sanders would be a good present. if our government is so worried about her safety why do they only been people from fine no file us but not from other other things that could still potentially put us in danger.

And his campaign is, I think rightly, pushing super delegates to retract their anti-democratic support for Hillary Clinton and instead side with the voters in their states” (Sally Kohn, CNN Political Commentator 2016).Bernie Sanders should be the next president because he supports our education by making tuition free at public colleges and universities, lower student loan

The hypocrisy in politics, politicians are not even trying to hide their hypocrisy these days. It is sad to see how long it has taken for liberal-leaning news outlets and Democrats to condemn Bill Clinton for his sexual misconduct. The Democratic party, the party that champions Women's rights, LGBTIQ, African-American rights but do not believe in the rights of Religious people or straight white males. Remember that time Bernie Sanders applied the religious test to public office. The man champions for the right of poor people against big cooperation or the 1% but writes a book that made him almost a million, did he give that money away?

There are a lot of problems in the world that need to be taken care of when the new president comes into office. It doesn’t matter if it’s Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. Most people hate Donald and Hilary, but everybody loves Bernie. Some of the problems in the world are the wars, people not having equal rights, and tuition fees.
