Bernie Sanders takes aim at 'greedy' Koch brothers

[Uncle Joe]

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders is making the billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch the face of a "corrupted" political and economic system that the Vermont senator wants to upend

Sanders delighted a South Carolina rally of more than 3,000 people Saturday with his assertions that the Kochs and other "greedy" billionaires are destroying American democracy by infusing huge sums of cash into campaigns and election.

"They are very, very powerful and many of them are extremely greedy," he continued. "For the life of me, I will never understand how a family like the Koch brothers, worth $85 billion, apparently think that's not enough money."

In each of his South Carolina stops, Sanders attempted to link his progressive agenda to concerns and challenges prevalent in the black community. He called for restoring sections of the Voting Rights Act that the Supreme Court overturned and pledged to fight "institutional racism," with a particular focus on the criminal justice system.
