I vs. We -- Hillary vs Bernie

This is an edited video of the last CNN debate. It is 6 minutes long. When Hillary spoke, all she talked about was "I" and "me". And all the clips of Bernie when he spoke he used "we" and "our". All Hillary spoke about was "me" and all Bernie talked about was "us". It shows a very interesting contrast from an unusual perspective.

I am sorry that I don't really know how to get this link but hopefully you can go and watch it.

PS maybe someone can tell me how to get a link like this from facebook so I could actually post the video here. Not too difficult from youtube but I don't know how for this one.

"I" is self centered. "WE" is inclusive.
Bernie does not use the royal "We" either. He has a long record of working for the common person.
Who would you rather have as a leader? A person who knows better than you? Or a person who is one of you?
