“My hope is, is that over the next couple of weeks, we’re able to pull things together”, Obama said, recalling his own bitter campaign rivalry with Clinton in 2008.

It capped a remarkable day for Clinton, which included endorsements from President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
“It is unbelievable to me … that the Republican Party would have a candidate for president who in 2016 makes bigotry and discrimination the cornerstone of his campaign”, he said.
Some Sanders supporters would like him to battle all the way to the party convention in Philadelphia next month.
“I know there’s been a lot of speculation about this”, Warren said, adding “the truth is I love the work I do”.
“I will be meeting, as I understand it on Tuesday night with Secretary Clinton, and I will get a sense from her about the nature of the Democratic platform”, Sanders said. “Yes, I am ready to get in this fight and work my heart out for Hillary Clinton to become the next United States president and to make sure that Donald Trump never gets any place close to the White House”, Warren told MSNBC news channel.
Bernie Sanders met face-to-face with President Obama at the White House on Thursday, after which Sanders gave nervous Democrats a handful of reasons to exhale. “I don’t think there has ever been someone so qualified to hold this office”. “We’re good at arithmetic”, said Sanders, despite trailing Clinton by more than 500 superdelegates.
“Our job is not to allow politicians, Mr. Trump or anyone else, to divide us up by where our family came from, the color of our skin, our religion or our sexual orientation”, Sanders said.
Hillary Clinton’s snarky tweet Thursday to her White House rival Donald Trump was among the funniest of the campaign.
The meeting itself was a very public show of respect for Sanders’ insurgent campaign.
Obama’s endorsement and Sanders comments, Conyne explained, could help unify the Democratic Party but it will still not affect the mindset of the undecided independent voters.
He then affirmed his plans to compete in Tuesday’s primary vote in Washington, DC – the last for the Democratic party.
