Colbert interviews Bernie

Stephen asks about the policy differences between Bernie and Joe, since Joe does not adopt The Green New Deal or Medicare For All (3:42). Bernie responded that to iron out these difference they agreed to the task forces on several issues. Bernie then said: "If the resolutions adopted in the task forces are in fact implemented it would make Biden the most progressive President since FDR" (4:48). He also notes that those resolutions did not go as far as he would like but acknowledged that Joe wants to work toward universal healthcare. Bernie goes on to detail some of Joe's other good policies in his "strong progressive agenda."
