Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders has bought and aired his first major presidential campaign television ad, which is part of a $2 million ad buy for the early primary and caucus states of Iowa and New Hampshire.

The ad portrays Sanders as an honest politician and takes an autobiographical look at the Vermont senator.

Watch this ad, share it, and give Sanders more exposure.
