Bernie Sanders booked to appear next week (Sept 18) on Colbert’s ‘Late Show’

Sen. Bernie Sanders says he’s looking forward to his turn on Stephen Colbert’s new show and plans to have a good time.

“I love Stephen Colbert,” said the independent senator from Vermont, who has been booked for Sept. 18.

Sanders, who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, joins a growing cast of politicians scheduled to appear on “The Late Show” on CBS as Colbert takes over hosting duties starting Tuesday.

Republican presidential hopeful Jeb Bush will be on the inaugural episode, and Vice President Joe Biden, who is mulling a White House run, is booked on Thursday.

“I’m sure that Colbert will have a large viewing audience, and I think it’s a good thing to be seen by people outside of the normal political context,” Sanders said in an interview.
