Is Bernie Sanders really quoting Lincoln? That's hilarious https://t.co/GwxL3rVvyu

Coming from somebody who would at least double the size of government and said yesterday that he’ll probably vote for Hillary Clinton in the General Election, this is an ironic quote:
As Lincoln put it at Gettysburg, we want a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

Point of order:
Did Lincoln say "we want"? https://t.co/DM7sdJKVEX

No, but maybe Sanders just couldn’t help himself since those two words played such a vital role in his campaign.
@SenSanders "we highly resolve…that gov't of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth"

At least Bernie didn’t throw free college into the mix in that quote.

@SenSanders Interesting from a guy that is for gov't of, by, and for gov't.

Ironic, no?
