Hillary Clinton says Sanders is no stronger candidate against Trump

Former Secretary of State and former US Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said on Monday that Democratic pre-candidate  Bernie Sanders would not be "the strongest against [Donald] Trump."

In addition to Sanders, former Vice President Joe Biden and Hawaii deputy Tulsi Gabbard are still nominating for the Democratic Party . Despite denying official support for Biden, Hillary emphasized his achievements in the election polls and explained that he has a broader appeal than the competitor.

"I think Joe's victories on Super Tuesday showed that he's building the kind of coalition that I basically had, it's a broad-based coalition," said Hillary, who ran for president against current American leader Donald Trump in 2016.

She added that, like herself in 2016, the pre-candidate managed to consolidate herself in Super Tuesday . "I think Joe is on track to do exactly the same thing: assemble a coalition of energetic voters," he said.

Voting intention surveys corroborate the assessment of the former secretary of state. According to the political analysis portal Real Clear Politics, some show an advantage of up to 41 points from Biden over Sanders in the Michigan primary, which should happen on Tuesday, 10.

In Missouri, Barack Obama's former runner-up is 30 percentage points more than the senator. In Mississippi, the margin is even greater: it appears 55 points ahead, according to a survey by Data for Progress. In addition, a CNN survey found that Biden would beat Trump by a margin greater than Sanders (10 points from the first, against 7 points from the second).

Former pre-candidates Beto O'Rourke, John Delaney, Deval Patrick, Tim Ryan, Pete Buttigiege, Amy Klobuchar, Michael Bloomberg and Kamala Harris have supported Joe Biden . On Monday, Cory Booker, an African-American exponent of politics, also endorsed him.

Hillary Clinton, who ran against Sanders for the Democratic Party nomination in 2016, called on the Democratic socialist to support Biden if the former vice president was nominated as an official candidate. Four years ago, when she was chosen instead of Sanders, he did not support her.“We need to come together, it’s what we’ve always done before and it’s what I expected. I certainly tried to do that when I ran with Barack Obama [in 2008], and I worked very hard for him, ”he said.

According to politics, the behavior of Sanders and his supporters "does not cooperate". Clinton said she would "endorse the Democratic Party candidate", but was unsure whether Sanders would ask her to campaign, if it is him.
