Biden says Sanders has ‘credibility’ on income inequality issue – while

Sanders has argued that he is a more authentic choice to be the party’s nominee as he tries to undermine Clinton’s double-digit lead in national polls by gaining ground in the important early nominating states of Iowa and New Hampshire. Now among likely Democratic participants in the February 1 caucus, Sanders is up 5 points, 49% to 44%, a huge turn around in one month.

Vice President Joe Biden this week praised Bernie Sanders’ views on income inequality, while noting that Hillary Clinton was “relatively new” to the issue, before quickly rolling back his comments after they were interpreted as an endorsement of the Vermont senator. During her remarks, it was clear Clinton wasn’t exclusively talking about the prospect of a Republican in the White House – but the possibility of a strong rival for the Democratic nomination. The Clinton campaign now faces real concerns that it could lose both in Iowa and in New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation primary.

After Iowa and New Hampshire, Democrats will compete in Nevada and SC, where the most recent polling shows Clinton maintaining a broad lead. “I think both states are going to be very tight”, Sanders said in an interview from Capitol Hill.

“Senator Sanders wants to dismantle Obamacare, dismantle the CHIP programme, dismantle Medicare and private insurance”.

“There are some parts of that bill are right, and there are some parts of that bill that are wrong, and I am, as I said several months ago, willing to re-look that”, Sanders said, refusing to say he regrets the vote. But the poll results in the two states with the first voting prompted Sanders to claim that Clinton’s campaign is in “serious trouble”.

When asked by ABC News on Monday in Waterloo if she was feeling nervous about Iowa, Clinton showed optimism. He was supported by 78.6 percent of its membership in an online vote of more than 340,000 members, according to the group.

The vice president suggested that Obama’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday night will include renewed calls for presidential candidates to take up gun control as a major campaign issue.

Although he was once considered a long-shot, Bernie Sanders not only has a shot at winning the primary, he’s in a good position to become the country’s next president. She talked about helping the middle class by not adding taxes.
