Bernie Sanders says he has a long list of issues he plans to pursue when the Democratic Party holds its nominating convention in Philadelphia at the end of July.
After meeting with President Barack Obama today, Sanders cited the debt facing college students, crumbling infrastructure and the influence that billionaires have on politics, the economy and the media, among other issues. Sanders is promising to continue his run at least through next week's primary in the District of Columbia.
Despite Bernie Sanders loss in California Tuesday, yesterday President Barack Obama maintained that Senator Sanders "has more than earned the right" to make his own decision about when and whether to end his campaign for the Democratic nomination, according to White House spokesman Josh Earnest.
What does Sanders want at this point, and are they the same things his supporters want?
Sanders said he hopes to meet with Clinton in the near future to talk about ways to work together to defeat Trump. What might those ways be, other than an endorsement of Clinton?
