Sanders: No, I’m not rethinking comment about Hillary emails

“Everybody evolves on issues – nothing wrong with that”, he said. “But I also fault the neoconservatives within my party like Rubio who have been eager for war in Libya, in Syria, in Iraq, and they want a no-fly zone in an airspace where Russian Federation is already flying”, Paul said. “Let’s just get on with it”. “I think it’s important because I think leadership isn’t about following polls”.

“No, here’s why”, Clinton said.

In an effort to break into what’s shaping up to be a two-person primary race, O’Malley also took aim at Sanders, suggesting that the self-identified democratic socialist is not a loyal member of the party.

“It’s not about punching up”, campaign manager Jeff Weaver told reporters after the event.

O’Malley parried Weaver’s jab. And I like to think and relax and sleep and stuff like that.

Retired school teacher Helen Davis said “I was thrilled. So I mean, what’s the difference?”

Collins say he drove from Georgia just to hear Sanders speak about his political platform in South Carolina. But there are fundamental differences between the three of us…. “Like “hang out” or ‘I’m good either way, ‘” Clinton replied.

Following the defeat at the ballot of a high-profile LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination ordinance in Houston, Maddow asked Clinton why she thinks the measure was voted down.

But for the next hour, while peppered with questions from prospective voters, Clinton outlined the way she would go further than the president on the economy and growth for African-Americans.

Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Rodham Clinton, left, shakes hands with Democratic presidential candidate, Sen.

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton explained late Friday her controversial assertion the Defense of Marriage Act was passed in 1996 to avert a US constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage, saying the potential for worse anti-gay discrimination came up in “private conversations”.

Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-South Carolina, who does not plan to offer an endorsement to any presidential candidate before the primary, said ahead of the forum that Clinton’s popularity is the result of her experience.

Hilary Hagenbuch, president of the San Francisco Young Republicans, said that while she didn’t like the Democrats’ answers, “I do agree with the format” – one candidate at a time in conversation with a moderator.

Still, the success of Sanders in pulling the Democratic discussion leftward could not be avoided.

Sanders is giving Clinton a strong challenge for the Democratic nomination, but only in two states that are overwhelmingly white: Iowa and New Hampshire.

At the Democratic forum on Friday, Sanders also made the case that it is still early and his views are largely unknown to black voters.

O’Malley, who has struggled to gain traction in the field, even as other opponents have peeled off, made the clearest plea to black voters when asked what of the demands from the Black Lives Matter movement could be accomplished.

“I think I have the economic and social justice agenda now that, once we get the word out, will, in fact, resonate with the African-American community”, he argued.
