About 70 percent of voters say a vice-presidential candidate is not a major factor in helping them decide whether to vote for Trump, and about 72 percent say it’s not important in helping them choose whether to vote for Clinton. Early in the campaign, the registered Democrat had been intrigued by what Trump had to say on issues such as trade and immigration, he said, but “the more he talks the less I like him”.
Do Democrats really believe that Sanders’ peace-loving supporters who are exhausted of perpetual war are now going to embrace Clinton’s warhawk approach to interacting with the rest of the world? Regarding Trump, 63 percent have a negative view of the Republican candidate, while 31 percent like him.

This election also featured a credible third party candidate, a focus on worldwide trade with the subsequent loss of American jobs and an eventual victor who was able to put together a plurality of support, not a majority. In 2006, he interestingly campaigned for Joe Lieberman in the Connecticut’s Democratic Senate primary, which Lieberman lost (though he won the general as a third party candidate without Clinton’s blessing).

We don’t have to vote for Clinton or Trump; I know I won’t. She took millions in campaign contributions from Wall Street, so she’s not going to pick on them, he said.
It added that the Clinton campaign has also made the 68-year-old former secretary of state’s record of working for children and families a central focus, while trying to portray Trump as a poor role model for children. “Weeks of backroom and telephone negotiations resulted in Sanders-backed policy ideas landing on Clinton’s platform and in the Democratic Party’s blueprint”.
The Post-ABC poll finds whites with college degrees are evenly divided-43 percent Trump, 42 percent Clinton, with an outsized 10 percent volunteering support for “neither”. The spot, which features women and fathers with the daughters wearing Trump shirts and reading some of his more controversial lines about women, will be played an estimated 28,000 times, said the group’s spokesman, Justin Barasky. Twenty-nine percent of respondents said they speak mostly English at home; 35 percent speak mostly Spanish and the remainder speak both languages equally in their household. “What can I do to stop this?'” said David Pepper, the chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party.

Describing Sanders himself as “sincere to the core”, an outreach official with the campaign claimed that “he felt that neither campaign manager Jeff Weaver nor other high-ranking figures thought Sanders could overcome Hillary Clinton’s appeal to black voters”.
