Sanders sticking around to campaign in S. Carolina
Thirty minutes a piece in Rock Hill, the three Democratic candidates for president went on the record Friday night at Winthrop University.
Presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Rodham Clinton are appealing to key voter groups in South Carolina on Saturday. A fear of an amendment came up in “private discussions”, she said.
Though Sanders made a point of reiterating his position that he would not engage in personal attacks on Clinton in his interview with Maddow, he did continue suggesting that she has shifted her political positions opportunistically.
Asked about Clinton, Paul said: “I see her as a neoconservative”.
When asked by Todd if it’s “wrong” to evolve on issues, Sanders said, “There’s nothing wrong”.
“I don’t have a problem with the way I am covered”, Sanders said in August.
“I fault Hillary Clinton”.
“I don’t think it’s good enough just to talk about campaign finance”, he said. “You’ve got to walk the walk”, he said.
Sharon Bennett of St. Matthews said she’s still weighing the options, but she was “very impressed” with Clinton.
Still, she’s struggled to convince a few young activists who have provided much of the energy behind the renewed interest in civil rights issues after spate of police killings of young minorities.
“I think I have the economic and social justice agenda now”, Sanders said, “that once we get the word out, will, in fact, resonate with the African-American community”. And, by the way, on her worst day, Hillary Clinton will be an infinitely better candidate and president than the Republican candidate on his best day.
But, by the way, George, if I may, we need to have a media more interested in the issues facing working class people and the middle class rather than political gossip. “Sanders was trying to find someone to primary him”, O’Malley said. “I am a Democrat”.
Bernie Sanders is walking back one of his statements from the first Democratic primary debate, expressing support for the FBI investigation into the former secretary of state’s personal server.
“I believe in her cause – women’s rights and insurance for every American”. “That does not mean that I am making personal attacks against someone I respect”. And I’ve never once rejected the nomination of the Democratic Party.
O’Malley also found time to throw red meat to the crowd.
O’Malley also took aim at billionaire businessman Donald Trump, a Republican candidate for president.
She told Maddow she would not be disappointed if the Supreme Court struck down the death penalty, but asserted she wanted to keep it as a rare option to punish crimes of terrorism. About three-quarters said she has the best chance of winning in the general election next November. An Ipsos study last July had interviewed American voters about their voting intentions face their Democratic candidates “dreamed”.
But Maddow didn’t just stick to serious topics.
Later Friday, Jeff Zucker, the current president of CNN, responded to Sanders. That he interjected after Clinton finished her answer suggested that he was executing a play put together by his campaign in debate prep.
