Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) argued the “current model of the Democratic Party was “not working.”

Sanders said, “The current model of the Democratic party obviously is not working. Republicans control the House, the Senate; they control the White House, they control two-thirds of the governors’ offices throughout this country. In my view, Chuck what we need to do is to reach out to independents. There are a heck of a lot more independents in this country than there are Republicans or Democrats. I’ve worked within the Democratic caucus for over 25 years. I continue to do that.”
