Sanders struggles to expand supporter base after Warren exit

WASHINGTON -- It took Joe Biden's moderate rivals just hours to unite behind his presidential campaign after they left the race. Bernie Sanders hasn't been so fortunate.

On one side, campaign manager Faiz Shakir wants to empower the pool of existing supporters, such as progressive congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib, because of their organic appeal to voters. On the other, senior adviser Jeff Weaver is pushing for a wider range of endorsements to broaden Sanders' coalition.

He said Warren, a former Harvard law professor and expert on the legalities of contracts, would approach the decision carefully and that process "might be time-intensive or it might not be." Sanders has the public support of nine members of Congress, yet he has earned no new endorsements since Feb. 20. Biden has won at least 26 this week alone.

"It is hard to wage a war against the political establishment and win their support. Bernie was always going to do this on the backs of the grassroots movement," said Neil Sroka, of the group Democracy For America, which endorsed Sanders this week.

Most warren supporters know sanders will not beat trump and will not waste their vote.

The US woke up after '60 Minutes' had Bernie on their show, telling America how great Fidel Castro was. That only works in Canada with are pathetic PM.

Hopefully he stays out of politics for good this time after he loses again. Someone needs to stick this guy in a retirement home.

Who cares? Truly i think we all know Trump will win regardless. Economy, criminal justice reform, military, trade deals.... 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Out in Canada, we get the useless and weak drama teacher who never advances any Canadian interests. A dummy globalist 🇨🇦🇨🇦😞

I think he has all the dumb commies there is in the country? Thats it, he is done.
