Bernie Sanders knows he needs to get older voters

Bernie Sanders has repeatedly voiced that he is not going anywhere despite his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton’s delegate lead in the election. Clinton had 49.6 percent of the vote to Bernie Sanders’ 49.4 percent. Yet Mitt Romney, the GOP’s 2012 presidential nominee, is telling his fellow Utah voters in a recorded phone message that Cruz “is the only Republican candidate who can defeat Donald Trump”. Both John Kasich and Ted Cruz would win Utah.

President Barack Obama has reportedly told select Democratic donors that the party will have to coalesce under the candidacy of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sooner than later.

Trump appears to be in a stronger position in Arizona.

As the Democratic party establishment continues to throw its full weight behind a candidate who is essentially a socially liberal Republican, some of you may be wondering: “Do I have to vote for Hillary Clinton in the general election even if she represents very few of my interests?” But he said that while “we know we’ve got a hill to climb”, he was pleased his campaign was able to accumulate more delegates and he had a strategy to take his campaign to the summer convention in Philadelphia.

The Vermont senator told reporters here he was content with the overall delegate count and that his campaign’s strategy is to accrue delegates through the primary process, reiterating what his top campaign officials have been saying for weeks.

The idea that if you elect Donald Trump, you are in any way saving the Republican Party is delusory and it ascribes to Donald Trump an expectation of functionality in the president of the United States that is the ultimate triumph of hope over experience. “And we can have momentum coming into the convention”, he said. Although Clinton wound up sweeping all five states, she only garnered 100 delegates over Sanders, leaving them just 314 delegates away from each other with Sanders at 825 and Clinton at 1,139. With solid popularity, he will be considered a valuable asset in pitching the Democratic nominee to voters.
