Coverage. We are still more than a year away from president ial election. So far, this eleion cycle has beeee defined by protest candidates who dont exactly fit the mold of your typical politician. Fox 28 News Reporter kevin barry sat down with one of them, democrat senator Bernie Sanders, to find out why hes doing so well. Well. Ononhe republican side, the best known protest candidate is donald trump. But for the democrats, even after 35 years in politics some people think senator bernie nders is on the outside looking in. But he disagrees. Theres no denying when Bernie Sanders first jumped in he was just as far behindHillary Clinton as everyone else with single digit polling in the early ststes. I thoughghfrom the very beginning that we had a shot to win this thing, but we came in clearly as an underdog. And one who freely calls himself a socialist. But in the democratic deba, he said all hed have to do is explain what that means. How do y explain that when so many people are turned off at the door at the word socialist. Thats a great question. Number 1 were going to give a big speech in nthe coming weeks defining what i mean. He points to programs like Social Security and Public Libraries that already embody those technically social ideas. So i think there is something to be learned from other countries just as they learn from us. So while the idea of protest candidates who o e picking up support from people fed up with establishment politics might be the phrase of the 2016 run for the white house sanders says it no longer applies to him. If the election were today, no question we would not win, but i think the momentum is with us a a i think weve gone from a fringe candidate to a candidate who stands a chance to win. Coming up at the bottomf the hour, senator sanders weighs in on the impact that colle students cod have on the 2016 election and why his message is a best suited for them.
