Hickenlooper denounces Sanders' democratic socialism vision

Democratic presidential candidate John Hickenlooper on Thursday attacked rival Bernie Sanders' vision of an America remade under democratic socialism and chastised others in the 2020 race for not repudiating that political philosophy. The former Colorado governor said Sanders was "wrong" to call for policies such as "Medicare for All" that would dramatically increase public spending and government involvement in Americans' daily lives. "The Democratic field has not only failed to oppose Sen. Sanders' agenda, but they have actually pushed to embrace it," Hickenlooper said at the National Press Club.
