Bernie Sanders is warning Democrats not to write off one of the strongest parts of his coalition: young voters. 'We are winning the generational debate,' he said. '…to win in the future you need to win the voters who represent the future of our country.'
Sanders has acknowledged that the movement he promised to deliver him the nomination is not showing up in big enough numbers. But he's warning Democrats not to write off the strongest parts of his coalition — young voters and Latinos, particularly emphasizing the former on Wednesday:"We are winning the generational debate."
Sanders listed off issues central to his campaign, which he says are very important to younger progressives: health care costs, climate change, income inequality, student debt, racial disparities in criminal justice, immigration and housing affordability. And on Wednesday, it seemed as though Sanders was at least in part responding to that call, essentially laying down for Biden a challenge and a road map to secure his support and extend a winning coalition to the left.Some of what Sanders dared Biden on wasn't too challenging.
