Bernie Sanders Talks Income Inequality at Black Churches in South Carolina
Source: ABC News
By MARYALICE PARKS
Bernie Sanders took his message of income inequality to black Baptist churches in North Charleston, South Carolina, today, in an attempt appeal directly to minority voters in the state.
Sanders, the only Jewish candidate in the 2016 presidential race, bowed his head and prayed, and occasionally tapped his foot and clapped to the gospel music, before addressing the congregations.
"My name is Bernie Sanders. I am a United States senator from the state of Vermont," he began at Mt. Moriah Baptist Church. "I am running for president of the United States, because I believe that in our great country we can do a lot better for working people and poor people than we are currently doing.
"I want to see the United States as a country that does not have more people in jail but has the best educated population on earth," he said.
