Stephanopoulos pressed, "So it's about the lesser of two evils?"
"No, it's not about the lesser of two evils," Sanders said. "If you look at issue by issue, we have Hillary Clinton who wants to significantly raise the minimum wage because we have millions of workers in this country working at starvation wages."
Facing the same question on NBC's "Today," Sanders characterized his decision as "a choice about making sure that the middle class of this country, which has been in decline for 40 years, gets rebuilt."
Sanders also brushed aside a question about whether FBI Director James Comey's comments last week that Clinton was "extremely careless" with her handling of classified information on her private server while secretary of state.
"Well, look, Hillary Clinton is not a perfect human being, and Bernie Sanders is not a perfect human being. And you know, that's the way life is. But I think what we have to focus on is, this is what I said yesterday in my remarks--it's not Donald Trump as a person, it's not Hillary Clinton a person..."
NO PERFECT HUMAN BEINGS
Bernie Sanders is absolutely right about one thing. There are no perfect human beings in this race. "That's the way life is." And there are no perfect devils. Resist, Yes! Work for change, Yes! But to demonize another person, to try and paint them as completely evil is to take away their humanity and pave the way for annihilation. That is not political action. It is the path of chaos and destruction. It is the path the Nazi's took in 1933.
