First, Senator Sanders. Well, John, let me concur with you and with all Americans who were shocked and disgusted of what we saw in Paris yesterday. Together, leading the world This country will rid our planet of this barbarous organization called ISIS. I'm running for President because as I go around this nation and talk to a lot of people and what I hear is people's concern that the economy we have is a rigged economy. People are working longer hours for lower wages, and almost all of the new income and wealth goes to the top 1 %, and on top of that we have a corrupt campaign finance system, in which millionaires and billionaires are pouring huge sums of money into Super PACs, heavily influencing the political process What my campaign is about is a political revolution. Millions of people standing up and saying, Enough is enough. Our government belongs to all of us, and not just a handful of billionaires. All right, Senator Sanders. Secretary Clinton. Well, our prayers are with the people of France tonight, but that Is not enough. We need to have a resolve that will bring the world together to root out the kind of radical jihadist ideology that motivates organizations like ISIS, a barbaric, ruthless, violent jihadist. Terrorist group. This election is not only about electing a president, it's also about choosing our next commander in chief. And I will be laying out in detail what I think we need to do with our friends and allies. In Europe and elsewhere. To do a better job of coordinating efforts against the surge of terrorism. Our country deserves no less because of all the other issues we want to deal with depends on us being secure and strong. Governor O'Malley. My heart, like all of us in this room, John and all the people across the country, my hearts go out to the people of France in this moment of loss. Parents and sons and daughters and family members, and as our hearts go out to them and our prayers go out to them, we must remember this That this isn't a new face of conflict and warfare. Not in the 20th century, but the new face of conflict and warfare in the 21st century. And there is no nation on the planet better able to adapt to this change, than our nation. We must be able to work collaboratively with others. We must anticipate these threats before they happen. This is the new sort of challenge. The new sort of threat. That does in fact require new thinking, fresh approaches, and new leadership. As a former mayor and a former governor, there was never a single day, John, when I went to bed or woke up without realizing this could happen in our own country. We have a lot of work to do to better prepare our nation and to better lead this world into this new century. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"CBS Democratic Debate: Opening Statements","description":"CBS Democratic Debate: Opening Statements","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/8wrx3uj6/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-11-15T02:27:29.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/8wrx3uj6.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/8wrx3uj6/","duration":"PT3M22S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/8wrx3uj6/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
