“I understand that guns in my state are different than guns in Chicago or Los Angeles”, Sanders said.

“If Sanders wins Iowa or New Hampshire it will build a lot of momentum for him that will help in the states that follow, but he’s still going to struggle in places like South Carolina with large black populations and Nevada with large Hispanic populations unless he improves his appeal to nonwhite voters”, Jensen said.
Americans are the hardest-working people in the world, Sen.
Sanders mostly reiterated his stump speech in both his prepared remarks and question-and-answer session, until an anti-gun activist confronted the Vermont senator for not aggressively advocating for gun control.
Dunn calls Sanders the Republican Party’s “best friend” and says the GOP should “turn Bernie loose” in his campaign for the Democratic nomination.
But not unlike many conservatives from the heartland of America, Sanders asserted that it would be folly to make Burlington and Boston live under the same gun laws.
Now, all eyes are turning to the senator’s still-nascent campaign infrastructure, the importance of which Clinton stressed in a CNN interview this week and a point that even Sanders admitted could be overwhelmed. “People in urban America have got to appreciate that the overwhelming majority of people who hunt know about guns and respect guns, and are law-abiding people, that’s the truth”.
The relatively high rate of contributions from Bush and Fiorina, both of whom are millionaires, is perhaps less surprising than the hefty sum from Graham, whose net worth was estimated to be $834,812 in 2009 by the Center for Responsive Politics.

Hillary Clinton and her campaign are reportedly feeling the “Bern” when it comes to outside candidate Bernie Sanders.
“I think voters are capable of distinguishing the Republican Party from Donald Trump”, Rubio told reporters.
“I have a degree in economics I graduated in a time where the economy was destroyed, 2011″, Peter Ildefonzo said.
“He’s using phrases that the gun extremists and the NRA use, saying things like it’s about people not liking guns”, she said.

“A lot of us are super Bernie Sanders supporters and we were all really disappointed that he could talk about in this way”, she said. “He reinforces the idea in people on the other side of the divide that this is about people hating them and people hating guns, and it’s not. It is [a deal breaker] for everybody in the gun violence prevention community”.
