White men as a whole would likely prefer any Republican over any Democrat this fall, but Clinton would have to find a way to cut her losses. Including superdelegates, Clinton’s lead stands at 1,944 to 1,192 for Sanders, according to an Associated Press count. Sanders has been telling his supporters that he will fight on, but he has given varying rationales in the last day for doing so. On all these issues Ms. Clinton has advanced realistic, well thought out proposals whose details make sense both as sound policy and as good politics.
Sanders told the Times that he would remain in the race through the Democratic party’s national convention in Philadelphia, Penn., in late July, but that “hundreds of staff members” would be let go in the near future. “When we were competing in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina and all the March 1 states we had a thousand staffers”.
On Thursday, he hedged on whether he would strongly support her if nominated, telling MSNBC his involvement would depend upon what she includes in her convention platform. “I’m not a fan of Bernie”.

“She does need him”, said Kunin. They can only switch to another candidate if they are released by Cruz or he fails to get a third of the overall vote.
The FAA told plane’s chief pilot earlier this month to stop flying the aircraft after The New York Times reported the expired registration. Despite Sanders’ efforts to gain the support of low-income voters, their voter turnout at the polls is extremely low.
Mr Sanders has vowed to continue on until the California primary in June.
The critical factor, as Clinton has frequently said from the podium, is that she enthusiastically campaigned for Obama.

“I am in sympathy with him and I want to see what kind of public speaker he is”, said Shelley.
