US Democratic Party gives Sanders say on platform

“They’ve gotten very little information that they have to request a ballot”.

Schultz limited the number of presidential debates and scheduled many of them for Saturday evenings, when they were sure to draw the smallest audience, in order to minimize the chances of any lesser-known Democratic rival gaining ground on the former first lady, senator and secretary of state.

The truth is that Hillary is running to become president by default.

In that sense, it’s impossible to overstate how successful he’s been. According to an ABC7-Southern California News Group poll released Monday, Clinton is favored by 57 percent of California’s likely Democratic primary voters, compared to 39 percent for Sanders. He has an opportunity to end the race as

This history is worth noting in light of Clinton’s 2016 predicament.

But the kinds of sweeping, transformational changes that Sanders calls for have only ever been achieved with a coordinated inside/outside strategy. If Republicans can coalesce around Trump, who is far more unpopular in their ranks than Clinton is with Democrats, then surely the Democrats can unify behind her.

On Tuesday Reid had a different message, signaling to fellow Democrats that pressuring Sanders is not the way to go. So that’s the “outside” part of the strategy.

Sanders has remained steadfast in his long-shot battle with Clinton for the Democratic nomination for the November 8 presidential election, even though he lags her in the delegate count with only a few state contests remaining.

“No president, not Bernie Sanders, not the greatest president you could possibly imagine, can take on the billionaire class alone”, Sanders wrote in a fundraising email to his supporters.

“We are going to unify the Democratic Party and stop Donald Trump”, she said in her speech at the Service Employees International Union’s convention.

The Democratic Party almost fissured in 2012 over language in the platform backing Israel. “Could they have done anything to mitigate the anger?”

One example of the fierce competition: Clinton held a rally at a nearby college on Cinco de Mayo, the annual celebration of all things Mexican, where Sanders supporters organized a noisy protest.

Nevada has a ridiculously complicated, three-tiered caucus system.

In another day of triumph and frustration, Sanders beat Clinton in liberal-friendly Oregon; Sanders fought Clinton to a photo finish in Kentucky, Clinton edged Sanders 212,550 votes to his 210,626. The win also gave her more delegate slots for the second round-the county conventions in April.

“Here in Anaheim and the surrounding areas, Disney pays its workers wages that are so low that many of them are forced to live in motels because they can’t afford a decent place to live”.

Asked if the convention could be messy, Sanders said: ‘So what?

So they thought they had “flipped” the results for the 12 delegates that would be awarded at the state convention last week. These days he often echoes Sanders as he rails against the influence of big money in politics and predatory lending practices while calling for more government action to improve the nation’s infrastructure.

“Thousands of people took the time out to fill out the cards and put it in the mail, ” campaign spokesman Ryan Banfill said in an email.
