Tonight will be the Democrats’ chance to answer that and they will do it with some heavy hitters, one of them, Leon Panetta, a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency and former director of defense.

We contacted Clinton’s campaign and requested the source of information for this approval rating. Sanders didn’t go after black voters, while Trump ignored standard conservative messaging.
