Bernie Sanders actually said...

"that seems to me to be totally absurd."

"The truth of the matter is, this issue is one of the issues in our country of enormous consequence and yet it doesn't get the discussion that it needs."

"The fact of the matter is that we have to start this discussion by saying, we are failing our children."

"We have experienced this in Vermont--here you have people giving them the responsibility of nurturing children in the most impressionable years of their lives and we are paying them minimum wage."
