It is clear now that neither Hillary Clinton nor Bernie Sanders is going to go to the convention with a majority of pledged delegates, he said.Coming off a trio of victories in caucus states last Saturday--Hawaii, Alaska and Washington--Sanders team argued that he now has the momentum going into toward the rest of the calendar. But while the math for Sanders isn t impossible, it s certainly not easy. According to CBS News estimates, Sanders would need to win two-thirds of the remaining pledged delegates and superdelegates in order to clinch the nomination -- whereas Clinton needs to win just a third of the remaining delegates in order to win the nomination outright.

biba New Jersey Gov. Christie says no one has told Trump he s under investigation
Zvpf Florida debate s fan controversy has roots in the 1960s
In an appearance on ABC s The View Tuesday, Hillary Clinton talked about Donald Trump, weighed in on feminists and abortion and revealed her favorite shows, musical artists and her celebrity crush. Last week did little to endear Trump to women -- his comments on abortion, his aggressive defense of his campaign manager, who s been charged with battery against a woman reporter, and his retweeting of an unflattering photo of Heidi Cruz prompted criticism from women and men alike.

I just don t understand wh stanley romania at he thinks is the role of someone running for president. I don t think it is to scapegoat people, divide people, engage in this kind of, you know, prejudice and paranoia.
