Candidates Clinton, Sanders in Columbia for forum

Trump helped lead the drive to raise doubts about Obama’s citizenship in what is known as the “birther movement”.

CNN’s Chris Cuomo moderated as the candidates came together to deliver their closing arguments to Palmetto State voters.

Just on Saturday Clinton beat Sanders in Nevada, winning over most of the black voters, which is notable leading into the South Carolina’s primary on February 27. What the Democratic Party has is Clinton, with her many flaws, and a septuagenarian socialist, Sen. He said he’d start by raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour.

One thing Sharpton would not do is criticize President Obama’s treatment of African-Americans. “Otherwise, we are never going to be the nation we should be, we are never going to overcome our legacy”.

The campaign acknowledges that she will likely dominate in the South with its large African-American population and her high favorability there, but his team added that, they think he will do well in the rust-belt and states further west. The Vermont senator clearly appreciates the urgency and is taking an increasingly tough line against the former secretary of state.

Hillary Clinton stated at the CNN Town Hall event Tuesday night that she will release her Wall Street transcripts when everyone does, including the Republican presidential candidates.

“When Secretary Clinton said, ‘I will do it if other people will do it, ‘ well, I am very happy to release all of my paid speeches to Wall Street”.

Sanders sought to defend himself against Clinton’s campaign charges that his proposal to make tuition free at public colleges and universities could harm private historically black colleges and universities.

“If everybody else does it and that includes the Republicans because we know they’ve made a lot of speeches”, said Clinton.

That’s interesting because during the New Hampshire Democrat debate she asserted, “I went to Wall Street before the crash”.

Both she and Sanders noted the need to rid the criminal justice system of racism, but a question Clinton received on this topic involved Beyoncé’s Super Bowl performance, which some have denounced for negativity toward police.

“She (Clinton) can not win the presidency without strong support and a solid turnout from those individuals”, West said.

“I’m well aware of the drip, drip, drip” of negative news, Clinton said. She appealed to women voters, who were expected to coalesce around what has been the best chance this country has ever had to elect a woman president. He just realizes the economy is driving the other issues, and that corporate money, where Clinton gets most of her funding, is responsible for social and environmental degradation. Clinton asked, to applause.
