Clinton, Sanders clash in Democratic presidential debate

Another test also awaits Clinton on October 22, when she testifies before the U.S. House committee investigating the Benghazi attacks, and will face tough questions about the email system she used as secretary of state.

During a Friday afternoon campaign appearance in Nashua, Clinton said Obama did not reach his decision “easily” and noted the partnership the USA has established with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) in the state. Clinton opposed that bill in the Senate and said in the debate that Sanders wasn’t tough enough “at all” on gun violence. Former Virginia senator Jim Webb was at 3%, and former governors Martin O’Malley of Maryland and Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island were each at 1%. Good Morning America co-host Stephanopoulos cheered, “Hillary Clinton smoking out Joe Biden after Wednesday night’s debate'”.

“I’m going to continue to run my campaign and make my case for my candidacy”, she said after a campaign event in Henderson, Nevada. She was speaking after a televised debate on Tuesday among the Democrats who have announced they are running.

Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Floridian who heads the Democratic National Committee, also seemed to ignore the possibility of Biden joining the race. When asked about her constantly changing stand on a few hot issues, such as same-sex marriage, she acknowledged the changes of heart that she has gone through all throughout her campaign and said, “I do absorb new information, I do look at what was happening in the world”. “But I think the time has come for a decision”.

Mrs Clinton, who has received tens of millions in support from bankers, claimed that she told Wall Street to “cut it out” in 2007 before the financial crash.Mr Sanders responded: “Congress does not regulate Wall Street”. In tone and style, the candidate they saw on the debate stage was the same one who has drawn tens of thousands to campaign rallies-passionate, serious, and unbowed by political convention.

He said: “The American public is sick and exhausted of hearing about your damn emails”.
