Van Jones: Bernie Was For Civil Rights When Hillary Was For Goldwater

2:06 PM, Feb 23, 2016 | By SHOSHANA WEISSMANN

On Tuesday, Van Jones and Bakari Sellers discussed the democratic presidential race on CNN.

Jones emphasized that Bernie Sanders sounds like a one-issue candidate, but he doesn't have to. He added, "It is ironic [Hillary Clinton has] taken so many of his issues and now says he has one issue."

Jones later added, "Sanders does have a great civil rights story to tell. In the sixties he was for civil rights. Unfortunately, Hillary Clinton was for Barry Goldwater. He can talk about other issues, and I think he should, especially when he's talking to an African-American audience. Tell your story about civil rights."

Hmmm Van Jones obamas guy.
