Clinton promises to take on gun violence at Iowa visit
Quinn, who ran for New York City mayor in 2013, said a recent Bloomberg Politics story that quoted Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver joking that “we’re willing to consider her for vice president…we’ll even interview her” was beyond the pale.
Karthik Ganapathy, Sanders’ New Hampshire communicators director, told Boston.com Monday the Vemont senator’s campaign has enlisted 53 paid staffers and 4,600 volunteers in the state since August.
“Let me tell you a word about Social Security”.
Instead of simply rallying his core supporters and boosting his name recognition, Sanders would actively seek to win over undecided Democratic and independent voters, by precisely articulating a contrast with Hillary Clinton.
The ad uses footage from an October 5 town hall in Manchester, New Hampshire, where Clinton said she would pursue expanded background checks and take steps to hold manufacturers accountable for crimes committed with their weapons.
Casting Sanders as “the son of a Polish immigrant who grew up in a Brooklyn tenement”, the ad says Sanders fought “injustice and inequality” while winning elections for mayor of Burlington, Vt., the U.S. House, and U.S. Senate. That’s a slight shift since an AP-GfK poll conducted in December 2013, when 52 percent of Americans said gun laws should be made stricter. So he’s giving in a little bit to the professional campaign strategists. Holding no illusions about the bill’s future, however, he admitted that he and Sanders don’t expect Republican leaders on the energy committees in both chambers to markup or hold a hearing on the issue.
“We started something here in Vermont – we started talking about issues which resonated in this state, where there is a lot of support in this state people think those same ideas are resonating all over the country now”, Sanders said. The Sanders campaign has not responded to Global News’s request for comment on the Bernie-themed undies ” We’ve heard a few rumours that they may have seen it”, Sherman said. This is just among Democratic voters.
A plurality (42%) feel that Congressional Democrats agreed to the right amount of compromise to reach this deal, while 26% say the Democrats compromised too much and 14% say Democrats did not compromise enough – a mixed result which indicates that Democratic voters are not overly upset with their own party’s role in the budget negotiations. Because that’s not exactly easy to achieve, we ask our candidates to jump through hoops. A majority of the Republican candidates say they don’t believe the science behind climate change, denying that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, contribute to global warming. “I’m different than every other politician”. Another ad has to do with Clinton’s new granddaughter, and it shows the candidate saying, “You should not have to be the grandchild of a former president to know that you can make it in America”.
