"The kind of criticism that we've heard from Senator Sanders about our President I expect from Republicans. I do not expect from someone running for the Democratic nomination to succeed President Obama," Clinton charged during the Democratic presidential debate.

"Madam Secretary, that is a low blow," Sanders responded by arguing that he respects Obama, but as a Senator he has the right to disagree with the President.

Sanders said Clinton in the last debate talked about getting the approval or the support or the mentoring of Henry Kissinger.

"Now, I find it rather amazing, because I happen to believe that Henry Kissinger was one of the most destructive secretaries of state in the modern history of this country.  I am proud to say that Henry Kissinger is not my friend," he said.

Responding to a question on America’s role in the world, Clinton said the US has to go after terrorist networks, predominantly ISIS -- that's not the only one.

"We have to lead a coalition that will take back territory from ISIS. That is principally an American-led air campaign that we are now engaged in," she said.

Sanders said a powerful nation like the United States, certainly working with allies, can overthrow dictators all over the world.

"I believe as president I will look very carefully about unintended consequences. I will do everything I can to make certain that the United States and our brave men and women in the military do not get bogged down in perpetual warfare in the Middle East," he said.

Sanders said the current campaign finance system is corrupt and undermines American democracy.
It allows Wall Street and billionaires to pour huge sums of money into the political process to elect the candidates of their choice.

"And aligned with a corrupt campaign finance system is a rigged economy. And that's an economy where ordinary Americans are working longer hours for low wagers. They are worried to death about the future of their kids. And yet they are seeing almost all new income and all new wealth going to the top 1 percent," Sanders said.

Clinton said she is running for president to knock down all the barriers that are holding Americans back, and to rebuild the ladders of opportunity that will give every American a chance to advance, especially those who have been left out and left behind.

"I know a lot of Americans are angry about the economy. And for good cause. Americans haven't had a raise in 15 years. There aren't enough good-paying jobs, especially for young people. And yes, the economy is rigged in favor of those at the top," she said.

"We both agree that we have to get unaccountable money out of our political system and that we have to do much more to ensure that Wall Street never wrecks main street again. But I want to go further," Clinton said.
