Sanders added, \u201cOf course I have an opinion, but as I said, I\u2019m focused on my campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also in 2016, Sanders <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_AlgvqQruV4\">said<\/a>, \u201cDo I support the economic policies or their political policies? Of course, I don\u2019t. But you know what else? Cuba produces a lot of physicians\u2026 They go to poor countries around the world doing a lot of good\u2026 By and large, Cuba\u2019s educational system, for a poor country, is pretty good.
