Bernie Sanders actually said...

"I don't believe in charities. Government, rather than charity organizations, should take responsibility for social programs."

"It is time to begin a serious discussion about the role of government in our lives."

"In Vermont, at least, I am not viewed as a crackpot. I am viewed as a serious candidate for mayor."

"We have to deal with the reality that 50% of the American people don't vote, don't participate in the political process."
