As I dug through the new Bernie Sanders interview, I found a gem from Bernie that I think Americans will want to hear. Bernie is putting Wall Street on notice!
That is one of the reasons why people become alienated from the political process. They just don't see justice. From a public-policy point of view, in terms of holding people accountable for serious crimes, the Obama administration blew it. From a political point of view, in giving people confidence that we have a criminal-justice system that works for all, regardless of their wealth or power, it blew it.
Now what do you think a president should have done? On Day One, I am appointing a special committee to investigate the crimes on Wall Street. We're gonna move this quickly, and if these people are found guilty, they will be in jail. Nobody in America is above the law. Is that what Barack Obama said? Mm – not quite.
Is that what Bernie Sanders would say on Day One?
Absolutely. People have got to be held accountable for their crimes, and these guys committed some very serious crimes.
Bernie is going to take care of business! Love this guy.
Harry Truman and Teddy Roosevelt would be proud!
You’ll want to also read how toughly he thinks Hillary will be on Wall Street. Heh. Good stuff
