A new Sanders book is set to be released in two weeks. [View all]

You can pre-order it now on his personal page at Amazon.com

https://www.amazon.com/Bernie-Sanders/e/B01NAJEW2P/ref=sr_tc_2_0?qid=1542053037&sr=8-2-ent

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has a $158 billion question for the wealthiest person in the world.

“Jeff Bezos and his company, Amazon, make huge profits by paying their employees wages that are so inadequate that many of them need public assistance just to get by,” the senator says. “How absurd is that?”

But try to ask Sanders why he’s set to sell his upcoming book, “Where We Go from Here,” on Amazon and you won’t get an answer.

“This is a book question — you’re going to have to ask the publisher,” Sanders’ spokesman Joshua Miller-Lewis says. “I can’t handle any book-related stuff.”
