dean was at odds with the democratic base. dean s point when he ran for president 12 years ago and bernie sanders is making the same argument now, basically saying the idea of having national policy on guns doesn t make sense because a gun means something very different in vermont. in vermont it s used for hunting, for food on the table. in a city like chicago where you re seeing it every weekend, it s killing people. it s being used differently. he says we have to have a political discussion that reflects that. i wonder what you think of that. on the policy the problem with that view is then if you have lenient gun laws in one place and the next-door neighbor has stricter gun laws you ve sort of negated the ability of the state with the stricter gun laws to be able to enforce who is bringing what into their state. i do think it s interesting with bernie sanders that this is the one place where he hasn t been consistently on the left. i wonder if there s been too much made of this is
there s very little we don t seem to know about the key moments in the life of hillary clinton, childhood outside chicago, student commencement speaker of wellesley, yale law school marriage to her law school classmate, partnership at a law firm. her husband in the arkansas governor s. hillary clinton s life in not an open book is at least a heavily scrutinized and very familiar with. but not so much for her closest rival pour the 2016 democratic nomination. senator bernie sanders of vermont has managed to keep huge swaths of his personal life off limits, even as he has succeeded in politics. first as the mayor of burlington vermont, then a congressman, now a u.s. senator now running for president. sanders is so private it wasn t until yesterday that we learned that his only child, a son, was born out of wedlock and not during his first marriage.

older generations had. we can put those numbers up actually krystal. let s put these up so you can see. this is people age 18 to 29. that is striking. they ve used socialism more positively than capitalism. an amazing disconnect. they think of it more in terms of the bernie sanders model, right? looking at yes, i believe we should support people. i believe we should have a social safety net. if you look at most of the positions that bernie sanders advocates for, they re quite popular, including expanding social security which is popular across a broad range of ages. i think most folks are not thinking so much about the lanl that they re looking at the positions. look bernie sanders has a ceiling. he s not going to be the democratic nominee, not going to be ultimately a national candidate. but the thing that people are responding to is that he is crystal clear about where he stands. he s been in the same place his whole career and that authenticity is a very rare
talking about. he has the certainty and willing to say exactly what he thinks. yes, it will be fun to watch. one thing i ve been thinking about, watching how well bernie sanders by the way, you get a lot of credit for predicting how well he would do unexpectedly. you were one of the first people to say this guy would do better than people think. i look at this and say imagine if elizabeth warren would have gotten in this race. i wonder if elizabeth warren thinks that, too. she would have a much broader range of support and could have given hillary clinton a run for his money. martin o malley is sitting in baltimore saying why isn t it me? all those years of planning. still ahead, why federal authorities say the gunman in last year s charleston shooting shouldn t have been allowed to buy a bun in the first place. a deadly explosion outside the consulate in egypt. the latest on that right after
