Should "old white men" withdraw? (VIDEO).

In a backward democratic race full of new and diverse presidential candidates, a familiar face has reached the status of world champion: Senator Bernie Sanders. But when the Liberal favorite sat down with Trevor Noah on The daily show On Thursday, the host asked a question that was of great concern to many voters: "Some people said, you have a very diverse field, but it seems like the leaders are still older white men," said Noah, referring to Sanders and his alumni Vice President Joe Biden, who has not yet announced his candidacy. "Is not it time for you to withdraw?"

After a brief joke, Sanders replied, "I think the American people must make that decision, nobody else does it. But I think it's appropriate for people to say, "Okay, who was talking about this when? Who had the courage to go ahead and what time? He continued, "It's important not to look that personalities. I think in American politics, in general, we do too much. "

Sanders then gave an overview of his mission, pointing out that while many of his ideas are now considered dominant ideas, he was among the first to fight to defend them. "What we have to do is focus on a progressive agenda," he said. "I am proud that I am a leader in the fight for this program for a long time."
