Democrat Sen. Sanders to run for 2020 presidential election

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Citing two sources familiar with the matter, politico said that Sanders and his team are conducting interviews with candidates for seats in the government in the event of a victory.

The sources also claimed Sanders had recorded a video announcing his decision to run for the Oval Office in the 2020 campaign. However, it is not yet clear when the video would be published.

Late last year, Sanders said he would take part in the 2020 US presidential election, adding that he would make such a decision only if he is sure that he is the "best candidate" to beat the current US president, Donald Trump.

Sanders claimed last year that the Democratic establishment was running attack ads in early primary states to undermine his progressive agenda should he run in the next presidential race.

Sanders added that he knew the US political, financial and media elite would spend vast amounts of money to oppose his candidacy if and when he decided to run for the presidency, noting that he did not expect ad campaigns to begin before he announced his intention to run.
