Has Warren Buffett joined the Bernie Sanders bandwagon? The billionaire investor and Berkshire Hathaway chief executive Tuesday praised the U.S. senator from Vermont who is running for president against Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
"I think Bernie Sanders has been a terrific campaigner. He campaigns exactly as I would campaign if I were a candidate," Buffett said in an interview on CNBC. Buffett pointed to Sanders' refusal to criticize Clinton and his opposition to political spending by corporations and unions.
"He's not going around saying things about other people. He's just saying, 'Here's my program,' " Buffett said. "I think he's run a model campaign. He's not going to get elected, but I admire him."
