Meet the Essential Bernie Sanders

Jonathan Tasini, Labor Activist and President of the Economic Future Group, discusses his new biography of Senator Bernie Sanders - The Essential Bernie Sanders and His Vision for America (Chelsea Green Publishing, 2015) - and explains how the Vermont Senator's path to victory is possible: "In his authenticity, his views are America's views".

@BrianLehrer HRC's Iran statement sounds hawkish compared to Sanders'. She's trying to have it both ways on this issue.

@brianlehrer guest is right. Most of the public agrees with Bernie Sanders' Message, despite what you hear http://t.co/gIpxvFcSZD
