Dick Van Dyke has endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders for president.

The legendary comedian and actor endorsed Sanders on Friday in a video on social media. Van Dyke, 94, also encouraged older voters to vote for Sanders.

“It just doesn’t make sense to me that he’s not getting my generation," Van Dyke said in the video. "And I want to urge my generation to get out and vote for him, please.”

“He never has changed his attack because of pressure from the outside or when he felt the wind was blowing another way. He stuck with who he is and what he believes." –Dick Van Dyke pic.twitter.com/j8bKHBlCkT — Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) February 22, 2020
