(June 10, 2016 16:30 p.m.) — The Democratic candidate has many good reasons not to descend to the bended-knee posture of a toady

Quo Vadis, Senator Bernie Sanders? For months Sanders has scored higher in the national polls against Donald Trump, than Hillary Clinton, highlighting some of her drawbacks for the November showdown. Yet, with one primary to go next Tuesday in the colony known as the District of Columbia, the cries for him to drop out or be called a “spoiler,” are intensifying.

In addition, another 67 delegates will be assigned for votes cast this weekend and are yet to be counted in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
