Cardi B recently met up with Bernie Sanders in a Detroit nail salon for a discussion on police brutality, healthcare, wages, student debt and other questions posed by her followers. 

In the interview, Sanders also took the opportunity to ask Cardi a few questions himself. “ Do you get nervous when you do your big performances?”  he asked, before pushing Cardi B to talk about her “favorite president,” Franklin Delano Roosevelt. 

Watch the full 12-minute interview below. 

Prior to the interview, Cardi took to Twitter to talk about Sanders, tweeting, “I been reading about Bernie Sanders and I’m really sad how we let him down in 2016.  This man been fighting for equal rights, HUMAN rights for such along time.  Seeing this country become a better place been really his passion for a long time not a new front for a campaign.”

The point of the video is to get young people more involved in politics, and the video does a good job of presenting the issues in an easy format.  Sanders told CNN, “We (are) working on a way to involve more young people in the political process.  The future of America depends on young people.  They are voting in large numbers, but not large enough numbers.”
