In a Monday night CNN exclusive on the neck and neck Clinton and Sanders race, Vice President Biden spoke of Sanders' democratic socialist characterization and that Bernie is speaking to a yearning that is deep and real, and he has credibility on it.
Biden pointed out the absolute enormous concentration of wealth in a small group of people now with the middle class being left out. There used to be a basic bargain, Biden continued, that if you contributed to the profitability of an enterprise you got to share in the profits. That's been broken, productivity is up and wages are stagnant he added.

It's relatively new for Hillary to talk about that, her focus has been on other things up to now and no one questions Bernie's authenticity on those issues, Biden said. The idea of Clinton's probablity as the favorite was also discussed.

1. Biden is awesome

2. The Vice President has a long record of concern for the working and middle classes

from his background and career as a public official. It's highly commendable that he spoke the truth about the broken workers bargain and the rise of tremendous wealth by the few and widening income inequality. Thank you Mr. Biden.
