Comment:

According to CNN reporter Rachel Chason, Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard isn’t ready to abandon Bernie Sanders and his run for the Democratic nomination for President.  Gabbard tells CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that she disagrees with Ms. Clinton’s “interventionist regime change policy in Syria that is proving to be so disastrous.”  Gabbard is a Hawaii Army National Guard Captain who served in the Middle East.

Although Sanders vows to continue his campaign at the Democratic Nomination Convention, he doesn’t have enough committed delegates to surpass Hillary Clinton.  Earlier this week, Sanders pledged to work with Ms. Clinton to defeat the presumptive Republican candidate Donald Trump.
