Mark two blocks from here tonight, republican president ial candidates will meet for debate lucky number 13. The volley of personal attacks was out of hand at the last debate. Tonightsare for equal, controversies are exploding all around the front runners. Facing a trio of topics that are sure to come up during the debate tonight. The first came from and interview he did with Anderson Cooper on cnn last night when he was asked how muslims viewed the west. Do you think islam is at war with the west . I think islam hates us. There is something there that is a tremendous hatred, and we have to get to the bottom of it. There is an unbelievable hatred of us. In islam itself . You will have to figure that out here you will get another pulitzer, but you will figure it out. But there is a tremendous hatred, and we have to be very vigilant. We have to be very careful. We cannot allow people coming into this country who have this hatred of the United States. And of people that are not muslim. So
Position on trade deals. That allowed him to get a huge comeback win and a huge symbolic win, and to return from the dead. I want to show what the democratic breakdown of the vote was. This is also super important. Take a look at the first breakdown between white and black voters. Sanders beats clinton 56 42. Importantly in the black vote, you have sanders getting 28 of the black vote in michigan, way more than he has gotten anywhere else in the country. If you look closer, white women and black women, clinton is dominating with black women. But with white women, which should be in the heart of clintons constituency, Bernie Sanders meets her. If he gets a healthy amount of africanamericans and white women, he can win more states. He put together a coalition of the people he had already been attracting but also a much higher percentage of the africanamerican vote. It does suggest that that wind, if he can keep it up, is not a fluke. When the clintons say he won because he targeted the s
On the democratic side, despite his deficit, sanders has close the polling gap with clinton. They are in a statistical tie nationally. Clinton beat donald trump and ted cruz, but she loses to john kasich. Sanders, like clinton, beats trump and ted cruz in a hypothetical contest, but unlike. Linton, he beats john kasich and yet, both sanders and kasich are getting pressured to leave the race. White isnt that breaking through . This is going to be a dream for you, im going to speak as little as possible because my voice is gone. But i will say, electability is an argument that does not resonate much with voters. They all say they will elect a nominee, but what they care more about is can people get things done, what are their ideologies, their passions about issues they clear about . Not about the abstract question about who will win in the fall. Where the nominee is is likely to be electable. Questiondoes beg the of why clinton is doing worse than sanders. I also wonder white kasich is

We will talk about clinton later, but trumps empire state romp earned him closer to the magic number of 1237 delegates needed to secure the nomination, thus avoiding a contested convention. This afternoon, the Washington Post reported on an internal Trunp Campaign memo, projecting that the donald is on track to collect 1400 delegates by the time the race is finished. His new york victory speech is getting extra buzz, in part because of his traditional, which is to say nottrump demeanor. Gone were the lying ted insults and antics. It was a trump on message, a new more forwardlooking front runner. Mr. Trump we dont have much of a race anymore based on what im seeing on television. Senator cruz is just about mathematically eliminated. We have won millions of more votes than senator cruz, millions and millions more than governor kasich. [applause] we expect we are going to have an amazing number of weeks, because these are cases, and they are in trouble. When you look at pennsylvania, indi
