Sanders also said he had 'no idea' what Biden’s entry into the race would mean. 2016 Bernie Sanders: 'I've had many, many meetings with Elizabeth Warren'

The political world is buzzing about Joe Biden’s hush-hush weekend meeting with Sen. Elizabeth Warren, but on Monday, Bernie Sanders suggested it was no big deal.

“I’ve had many, many meetings with Elizabeth Warren,” the independent Vermont senator said when asked by NH1 News Network if the unannounced meeting, held at the vice president’s official Naval Observatory residence, had him worried.


Biden is considering a presidential run, and he’s been reaching out to influential party members to assess his potential viability.

Sanders, who spoke Monday morning to more than 750 people for a town hall in Conway, New Hampshire, is running on an aggressively progressive platform, and has attracted many of Warren’s supporters.

On Saturday, he told POLITICO he had “no idea” what Biden’s entry into the race would mean.

“I’ve known Joe Biden for many many years. The people who know him respect him. If Joe gets into this race, I look forward to continuing running an issue-oriented campaign and discuss[ing] the important issues of the country with Joe,” he told POLITICO on Saturday. “Whether he gets in or not, I have no idea, and what its impact will be, I just don’t know.”
