FROM WIKILEAKS WHICH GOT ACCESS 
TO THOUSANDS OF E-MAILS FROM THE
DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
IN MAY OF 2016 THE CHIEF 
FINANCIAL OFFICER OF THE DNC 
BRAD MARSHALL SENT AN E-MAIL TO 
THREE OTHER STAFFERS SUGGESTING 
THAT THE PARTY SHOULD TRY TO GET
SOMEONE TO ASK YOU ABOUT YOUR 
RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.
HERE IS THE E-MAIL.
QUOTE, IT MIGHT MAKE NO 
DIFFERENCE, BUT FOR KENTUCKY AND
WEST VIRGINIA CAN WE GET SOMEONE
TO ASK HIS BELIEF, DOES HE 
BELIEVE IN A GOD?
HE HAD SKATED ON SAYING HE HAS A
JEWISH HERITAGE, I THINK I READ 
HE IS AN ATHEIST, THIS COULD 
MAKE SEVERAL POINTS DIFFERENCE 
WITH MY PEEPS.
MY SOUTHERN PEEPS WOULD DRAW A 
BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A JAW AND
ATHEIST.
UNQUOTE.
SENATOR SANDERS THAT IS THE 
CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER OF THE 
DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
WHAT IS YOUR RESPONSE?
>> WELL, I THINK IT'S 
OUTRAGEOUS, BUT IT IS NOT A 
GREAT SHOCK TO ME.
I THINK, AS I SAID, IT'S WHAT WE
TALKED ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO.
I MEAN, THERES NO QUESTION TO MY
MIND AND I THINK NO QUESTION TO 
ANY OBJECTIVE OBSERVER'S MIND 
THAT THE DNC WAS SUPPORTING 
HILLARY CLINTON, WAS THIS 
OPPOSITION TO OUR CAMPAIGN.
SO I'M NOT QUITE SHOCKED BY 
THIS.
AND THAT IS WHY MANY, MANY 
MONTHS AGO I MADE IT CLEAR THAT 
I THOUGHT DEBBIE WASSERMAN 
SCHULTZ SHOULD RESIGN, SHOULD 
STEP DOWN.
NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE 
PREJUDICE I THINK THEY SHOWED 
DURING THE CAMPAIGN, BUT ALSO 
BECAUSE I THINK WE NEED A NEW 
LEADERSHIP OF THE DEMOCRATIC 
PARTY WHICH IS GOING TO OPEN UP 
THAT PARTY TO WORKING PEOPLE, TO
YOUNG PEOPLE, TO HAVE THE KIND 
OF VITALITY WE NEED TO NOT ONLY 
WIN THE PRESIDENCY, BUT GAIN 
CONTROL OF THE SENATE AND THE 
HOUSE AS WELL. 
>> SENATOR, WHAT IS YOUR 
PERSONAL RESPONSE, THOUGH, TO 
HAVING YOUR FAITH QUESTIONED 
LIKE THAT BY A FELLOW 
DEMOCRAT -- WELL, YOU ARE NOW A 
DEMOCRAT OR YOU WERE A 
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE, BUT BY 
SOMEBODY SUPPOSEDLY NEUTRAL AND 
THEORETICALLY ON YOUR TEAM?
>> WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I AM NOT 
AN ATHEIST, BUT ASIDE FROM ALL 
OF THAT, I MEAN, IT IS AN 
OUTRAGE AND SAD THAT YOU WOULD 
HAVE PEOPLE IN IMPORTANT 
POSITIONS IN THE DNC TRYING TO 
UNDERMINE MY CAMPAIGN.
IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THE 
FUNCTION OF THE DNC IS TO 
REPRESENT ALL OF THE CANDIDATES,
TO BE FAIR AND EVEN-MINDED, BUT 
AGAIN, WE DISCUSSED THIS MANY, 
MANY MONTHS AGO ON THIS SHOW.
SO WHAT IS REVEALED NOW IS NOT A
SHOCK TO ME.
I THINK THE FOCUS, THOUGH, THAT 
I AM GOING TO GO FORWARD ON 
RIGHT NOW IS TO MAKE SURE THAT 
DONALD TRUMP OR PERHAPS THE 
WORST REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE IN 
THE MODERN HISTORY OF THIS 
COUNTRY, SOMEBODY BY
