This video is six minutes long.
The details come in at about four minutes.
The average ad is 45 seconds.
No delineation is made between public colleges and private. I personally balk at paying wealthy legacy kids' Harvard bills, but that just gets a handwave here.

Our family has two kids in their freshman year. I would love to see their exorbitant college paid for. But I want more details on how we really get to this, and how it differs from @ewarren's plan. Taxing corporations seems like a fantasy, tbh. Break it down, Bernie.
2/
This plan as described here asserts that all people making over $150k pay for their kids' college in cash. But is that true? Or are they taking out loans and just not paying them because of how investments work--it's a write-off. Bernie should know this.
3/
Bernie couldn't help claiming at the 2min mark that Democrats have tried to end Social Security and Medicare (false). There's a stab at Third Way a little later (no one knows who Third Way is, nor cares). These deflections are unnecessary and contrived.
4/
A solid plan can be laid out in less than a minute.
Bernie should cut another video that is shorter, SUCCINCT, and tells us who will make Wall Street pay for our kids' college and how. Throwing some coins down and shuffling $100 bills at the 3min mark isn't clarification. 5/
If this is your signature policy, people other than you have to be able to explain it to others and boil it down so it's not just a sound byte, but it's palatable as well.
