we do not hold the 18,000 level. [closing bell rings] color the market purple not red, in honor of prince. david and melissa. david: stocks ending the day down triple digit the. hi, everybody, i'm david asman. melissa: i'm melissa francis this "after the bell." new at this hour, super tuesday round three we're five days away from voting. candidates out in full force, ted cruz goes on the attack, targeting donald trump for his comments says trump is bowing to political correctness. the world mourning the loss after pop superstar, prince. he was found dead at his minnesota estate. police investigating the cause. david: let's stick with the story. fox's julie banderas has all

details. hi, julie. reporter: actually the most tragic news we've heard quite some time. we've been hearing troubled stars we loved in the '80s. to hear of icon like prince rogers nelson, a lot of people don't even know the name rogers nelson. many hearing that name for the very first time. the reason being he was such a private person. he was born in minnesota. he in fact was born with epilepsy, he was tease ad lot as a child. that is sort of reason why he sort of led this very loud personality. so, as a child he sort of began to sort of hone his special unique ability to be different and that is what made him the star he is today, sadly though that star is now being mourned across the country and around the world as one of the biggest icons of all time. his publicist said in a statement, and i'm quoting, it is with profound sadness i am confirming that the legendary iconic performer, prince rogers

nelson has died at his paisley park residence this morning at age of 57. there are no further details as to the cause of death at this time. prince's contribution to music history started when his debut album was released in 1978. by the '80s, that is when his star, started to rise. boy, what a star he was. in 1984 i first starred in his own film, "purple rain." of course the soundtrack which included "when doves cry", let's bo crazy and my favorite the title track, "purple rain." this is the song here. ♪ i love the song, still gives me chill.

he won academy award in 1984 for original score for that song. he released one album every year, that is how dedicated he was in the craft. he starred in two more movies. he changed his name from prince to the symbol with dispute to his record label, leaving everyone to call him artist formerly known aspirins. in 2000, when the publishing contract warner brothers expired, in 2004 he was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. in 2007, that memorable super bowl halftime performance. throughout his career he won seven grammy awards in all. he was nominated for 30. sadly his life came to a tragic and surprising end on thursday morning when his body was discovered at his paisley park compound in minnesota early thursday morning. "tmz" reported a medical emergency apparently had

occurred on april 5th. he was on a plane after he conduct ad concert. that plane had to make emergency landing in illinois. he appeared at his concert the next day to assure fans he was okay. apparently he had the flu. he was admitted into the hospital. released just three hours later. he canceled two shows due to health concerns. we don't know exactly what those health concerns were. there had been recent pictures of him looking a bit frail. i saw one where he was walking with a cane. as far as the man known aspirins, we didn't know much about him. as far as his personal life is concerned, other than what i talked about in his very early years, he was married twice. he had a child in 2006 who sadly died a week after his birth, a boy. a story that many of us never really talked about or heard about because he was so private. and so to hear the public acknowledgement of this man's career certainly speaks volume of what an impact leaves on fans and all those around him who

just loved this guy so much. everybody talks about him as being normal, really nice guy, a really good person. a very sad story. david: born and raised and rose to fame in minneapolis and eventually passed away there. julie, thank you very much. >> sure. melissa: thanks, julie. in the race for the republican contenders hit the campaign trail ahead of super tuesday iii. we have fox business's team coverage. blake burman following ted cruz in maryland. connell mcshane in pennsylvania for donald trump rally later tonight. peter barnes is in florida where the rnc is meeting about the party convention rules. first, start with blake in maryland. blake? >> hi, there, melissa, the campaign of ted cruz tweeted out a little while ago they are now about to take orders for hats. that say make pc great again. it is a poop on donald trump. comments that -- spoof on donald trump. he appeared on the matt lauer

and was asked about the north carolina lbgt bathroom law. he basically opposes law and north carolina should have left it alone. here is trump this morning. >> north carolina, what it is going through and business leaving and strife, you both sides, leave it the way it is. there are very few complaints the way it is. reporter: you mentioned we are with cruz. that very comment cruz jumped on earlier today when he was here in frederick, maryland, which is a commuter town outside of the d.c. area about an hour away from 1600 pennsylvania avenue. cruz said those comments right there from trump essentially said that he was bowing to political correctness. here was cruz. >> a few months ago donald told us he could be the most politically correct person on earth. and i guess he is showing us what that looks like. i am waiting with anticipation for the new baseball caps, make

pc great again. reporter: those caps they say are now at. ted cruz did not spend much time in maryland earlier today. polls show him running as low as third here. even potentially trailing john kasich. instead cruz has couple of events later today in indiana where he is hoping to strike there after the five states coming up next tuesday. melissa, back to you. melissa: blake, thank you so much. connell mcshane following donald trump in pennsylvania, the state with the most delegates on the line this tuesday. connell what is happening there? reporter: well trump seems to have a comfortable lead, melissa, in the polls up 14 points with a new poll out from franklin and marshall. 16-point lead over governor john kasich run in third place. because the unique system the polls are less important than they would be in another state. most of the delegates when you think about it coming out of pens will be free agents.

they can go to the cleveland and vote whoever they want to. they won't be bound to any candidate. if history is any guide that type of situation could be tough for trump. he has been winning so far, winning primaries based on big rallies like the one we see here tonight, getting people fired up. but now he sort at thatted to focus on the other side of this, the political organization where he has been outmaneuvered by the cruz campaign in number of states. he is essentially trying to play both sides. on one hand here in harrisburg tonight we will likely see many of the same types of comments we saw in maryland last night like this one. watch. >> politics is a very dirty, dirty, dishonest business, folks. i have never seen anything like it. and we're running now for office and it is a rigged deal. this whole thing with delegates is rigged. it is a rig where i win louisiana, and i don't get as many delegates as some guy that lost? reporter: so, you know, that the

is same old donald trump in many ways railing against the system what have you, but other side of it is melissa, the more are organized trump campaign we're hearing about, more professional and political. quick example here in the state of pennsylvania there are two local congressman, there "the hill" talked about this morning, they're working behind the scenes trying to elect trump supporters as delegates hire. that is key to 54 of the 71 at stake this week. melissa: connell, thank you so much for that report. appreciate it. david? david: we have some big news out of florida where a decision has just been made by the gop rules committee. is decision a lot of people have been focusing on. peter barnes in hollywood, florida, with the details. peter? reporter: hey, david, the decision by the rules committee here was to punt any major recommendations on changing the rules at the, for the republican convention in cleveland this

july. this is a big win for rnc chairman reince priebus who had said that the environment right now is too politically charged for the rules committee and then a, for rules committee right now to recommend any changes for how the convention is governed. there are some proposals, several proposals that have been floating around out there. one that might make it easier for a white knight candidate to come in and get the nomination. maybe even someone who isn't even running. that from the stop trump forces. another proposal, that was actually discussed specifically here at the meeting, that would make it harder for anybody other than candidate who is currently running and getting delegates to get, to get the nomination. but at the end of the day, committee members agreed with reince priebus that the timing, for making any changes was not good right now. here is what one said.

[no audio] well, that was supposed to be randy evans who was a delegate from, i think washington state. anyway he just said, listen, if we went in and changed even a colon to a semicolon, that could raise charges from one candidate that, that the committee, the rules committee and the rnc might be favoring some other candidate and so, other members of the rules committee also generally agreeing with that position, that this was not the right time. so they will, issues are not going away. they're so important that john kasich and ted cruz both came down here to lobby members about that issue as well as delegate selection and other issues but, for now, they're going to defer this to the next meeting of the rules committee which is week before the

convention starts in july. david? david: put a fine point on it all, a lot of delegates are concerned that the rules now favor the chairman and the elite who they are afraid might insert a non, might insert one of the traditional candidates that is not a cruz or trump at last minute. that's what they're afraid of. they will punt that until june. peter, thank you very much. good reporting. appreciate it. melissa, the. melissa: donald trump campaign aides are fighting for a change in the rnc rules for the convention. you heard they will not get it as of yet. there is still a lot of time obviously. joining me dr. ben carson, trump supporter, former presidential candidate. let me ask you first what is going on in florida. kasich and cruz both went down there to talk to the committee. donald trump didn't go down to talk to them in person. do you think that was a smart decision and do you know why he did that? >> i think what is really important is not trump or cruz

or kasich. the real issue here what is happenings to will of the people. this is what the rnc, this is what the leadership must take into consideration. the level of frustration among people is extraordinarily high. some of it is perception. but they need to look at that and say do we look like we're being fair. melissa: should he have gone down there to make that point to them directly? because when the other two candidates to show up to lobby them or maybe it is good decision that he looks like he is not willing -- what would have been a a better choice politically? >> hard to know whether his presence have exacerbated the situation or improved it. it is important to hear what i just said, that is we need to look how the people are feeling. people are incredibly frustrated and feel like they're being disregarded. and whatever the republicans do,

they need to take that into consideration. melissa: absolutely. i have read reports you're heading down there next. would you make that point to them? >> i will make that point very strongly, absolutely. i've been hearing from people all over the country and every place i go. it is not a minor issue because the level of enthusiasm that you have in your base is going to be very important. i don't think hillary, if she's the nominee will have a lot of enthusiasm. if we wind up with a non-enthusiastic base it will be a toss-up. melissa: what do you think action on their part would help get across the point you're trying to make, that the people feel like they're not being heard? what action would help that? changing the rule, not changing the rules, what? >> certainly i think they need to enter a discussion about how do we translate the will of the people into something that is consistent with the party?

that is what they need to start that discussion. i recognize it is probably not going to be possible to change all of the rules at this late-stage. melissa: yeah. >> but at least begin to engage in the discussion so people know their concerns are being met with an open mind. melissa: yeah. absolutely. ben carson, thank you so much. dr. carson, appreciate your time. david? david: talk about money and politics now. we knew bierne born raised a lot of money -- bernie sanders raised a lot of money in march. sanders raise ad whopping $46 million in march, that is much more than hillary clinton but he spent about all of it. hillary on the other hand has 29 million in the bank. her political action committees they have tens of millions of dollars more. on the republican side cruz raised 5.9 million but spent about 94% of it, with more than half the cash going into ads. then there is self-funding donald trump. he invested 11 1/2 million of his own money in the campaign

but he also raised $2.7 million from supporters. melissa: alphabet, parent company of google out with first quarter results. let's go to jo ling kent. jo? reporter: melissa the stock taking it after hours after posting a miss in the quarter. revenue after traffic and acquisition costs. that is a miss and we're also looking at eps, profits coming in at 7.50 a share. that is pretty serious miss of 7.97 street was looking for. some of the numbers jump out, paid clicks up 38% on the google site. ad spending, we're looking at those numbers now, overall you see google tanking in after-hours on this as well. we also want to take a look at microsoft earnings as well. it is a big day in tech earnings. we like to flip over to those. also a miss on microsoft as well. we have $22.1 billion.

that is actually in line with revenue estimates from the street but it was eps, profits that missed by just two cents coming in at 62 cents a share. what we see microsoft phone revenue down 46%. cloud revenue up just a little bit at 3%. and they say they have returned $6.4 billion share repurchasing and dividends to their investors but we are watching all of this as it happens. microsoft's stock down about 3 1/2% in after-hours. guys? melissa: jo, thank you so much for that. president obama wrapping up his controversial trip to saudi arabia. he is expected to arrive in london in about an hour where he will be walking into another political firestorm. david: we'll find out what that is. ted cruz calling for john kasich to drop out when it wasn't matally possible for him to become republican nominee. now that cruz is in the same boat, why doesn't the same logic apply? melissa: right. tell me if you heard this one before. new reports say donald trump will be changing his tone and

strategy. david: i heard that before. melissa: what they say he will now be doing differently to become more presidential. >> we got some beauties. we got lyin' ted. we have crooked hillary. i won't go over the others because they're now defeated. you know once they're defeated you don't have to mention their names anymore. ♪ i don't want to live with the uncertainties of hep c. or wonder whether i should seek treatment. i am ready. because today there's harvoni. a revoluonary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. harvoni is proven to cure up to 99% of patients who've had no prior treatment. it's the one and only cure that's one pill, once a day for 12 weeks. certain patients... can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. with harvoni, there's no interferon and there are no complex regimens. tell your doctor if you have other liver or kidney problems, hiv, or other medical conditions,

he can't beat donald trump. david: will cruz take his own advice? here fred barnes, executive editor of "the weekly standard," fox news contributor. he won't, fred. we heard from him yesterday announcing in fact he was talking about how donald is afraid and scared. that sounded a little desperate. frankly i don't think donald's more afraid now than he was before new york, do you? >> no, i certainly don't. besides, if trump, if cruz is going to be calling on people to drop out of the race he ought to at least beat them. in new york, a huge primary, important state, he came in a distant third. i think, i think kasich beat him about two to one. now kasich won, didn't win many delegates but look, when you're doing that poorly, and you're trailing some guy in the most recent primary i think you ought to hold off getting them out. david: one thing cruz was pretty

good at, getting some free-floating delegates. >> yeah. well, i suppose el, cruz may continue to try to the do that. earlier in the week cruz people were emphasizing indiana was big state coming up. that is not for several weeks. next week there are five states where cruz doesn't look very strong. the so-called excella primaries. cruz will have, he can't just downgrade those. you can't skip five states and then try t emphasize another one. you really at this point, if you're serious about winning the nomination, you have to play everywhere and you have to beat people. he at least has to start beating kasich. david: fred, he does have the support for whatever good it is, sometimes it is an albatross but of establishment republicans. people like mitch mcconnell, for example, hold their nose supporting him because they didn't particularly like him when he was active in the senate. is that going to help him or perhaps could that hurt him? >> well, it is kind of hard when

you're anti-establishment candidate. david: right. >> to brag about your establishment support. the truth he doesn't have a whole lot of it. how many senators of the 54 republicans in the senate have endorsed ted cruz? i think still only two. so, he is not doing very well there. cruz's problem is really not kasich, it's trump. he is going to have to start beating trump. david: yeah. >> and he doesn't seem to be able to do that. it would help maybe if he did it in pennsylvania, maryland, delaware, connecticut, one of those states next tuesday but it doesn't look good for him. david: fred barnes, we're not done with you. see you later in the hour. appreciate it. melissa: the music world is mourning the loss of a music legend. remembering life of pop artist prince. we'll take you through the life and legacy of one the greatest artists of all time. ♪ there are two billion people

melissa: very sad day for music lovers. legendary musician prince, dead at the age of 57. the seven-time grammy winner was best known for his hits "purple rain" and when doves cry among many, many others. here to discuss the artist's legacy and kim serafin. in touch senior editor. thanks for joining us. alex, let me start with you, what made him so different as a artist? if you're explaining to people who don't play music and just enjoy it, why did he have huge impact on other artists, for example? >> the way he -- when he came out in late '70s, a time music was very segregated, more segregated not just in terms of different genres but racially as well. it was the end of the disco era and rock on one side and black music on the other.

he basically combined rock and black funk music into basically new genre. his album, dirty minds, in 1980, basically defined the sound of that decade. from there his influence goes almost through every single person in pop culture today. melissa: and, kim, looking at him i feel he has been a part of my life the whole entire life, you heard about changing his name and struggles with his record label. you learn that you really didn't know that much about him personally. it is astonishing. we're learning he was married twice but for example he had a child that lived for a week. it was not that long ago. i don't feel this was something we heard that much about. he was really private, right? >> he was very, very private. obviously there was semiautobiography film, "purple rain." but other than that you really mostly heard about his music. that is what he was well-known for. that is what he was famous for. he was known for doing secret

concerts. he would do this at intimate events and pop up for con certainties. and do huge concerts for people. he has been around for decades. 100 million records sold, 39 albums. reportedly there are unreleased songs. he could release albums, there would be prince albums coming out next 10 years practically for all unreleased sponges he reportedly has. melissa: alex, what about that? what a prolific musician. talk about the volume. >> absolutely, 39 albums. in the past year four albums. he was still pumping music out. if you see him live, i saw him couple years ago, would do three hour show and do after the parity. the guy is in his 50s. and show up at three a.m. play a legendary show. almost every show became a legend for people that were there. he is that incredible. the guy did not stop. melissa: kim we heard the story about him a couple daysing a, he was sick.

he made emergency landing. he did a concert after that. we still don't know what happened. >> no. they're still investigating it. as you mentioned. that was the news. he canceled some concerts he was supposed to do in atlanta. he rescheduled them. he did the concerts. he was flying back, had emergency landing, treated for flu at the hospital for three hours. he popped up at event at party saturday at his home. he made comments to show everyone he was okay. save your prayers. don't waste your prayers on me right now. so it is, a lot of investigations but he was very anti-drug and we don't really know what happened at this point. melissa: absolutely. thanks to both of you. david? david: meanwhile here is a look at two more big names reporting this hour. visa dropping even though earnings and revenue beat the street. revising new revenue growth lower. the stock is down about 5% after-hours. starbucks is lower. shares down nearly 5% as well.

>> in the case of lyin' ted cruz, lyin' ted, lie, oh, he lies. he walks in with the bible held high, right? the bible held high. he puts it down, comes over here, starts ranting and raving and he starts lying, right? lyin' ted. melissa: donald trump slamming cruz on campaign trail but the gop front runner is promising to adopt, quote, more traditional campaign tactic. in an interview with the "wall street journal" trump says, the campaign is evolving and transitioning and so am i. i will be more effective and disciplined. i am not going to blow it. here to weigh in guy benson townhall.com editor. fox news contributor. i analyze that a little bit different. he can't help but saying lyin' ted. he loves it. i think that was calculated. then he will be controlled and flips it back in to say i'm not controlled by people handling me and i haven't lost what i originally had.

he goes back to being sort of disciplined. what do you think of my analysis? am i crazy? >> no. i think donald trump maybe careens from one approach to another. we've heard this now for weeks, that it is going to be more presidential donald trump. sometimes we see it. for example, on tuesday night, after his new york win, by trump standards he was pithy, he was focused, he was disciplined. he referred to senator cruz and governor kasich. i point out by the way, he has no nickname for john kasich. isn't that the biggest insult there possibly is? everyone else gets one but not john kasich. what's up? melissa: right. >> that was much more controlled performance. ah-ha, here we go, this is the new donald trump. i do think sometimes he can't help himself. he likes nix names and derisive stuff. we'll see whether or not the new team he built around him can rein him in and keep him on the track. melissa: does he need to be on the track all the time? actually if you watch the

entirety of that speech we saw. that was a little snippet. in the rest of it he was saying senator cruz and ted cruz and he was being the new guy. i mean, i almost think that it's intentional. that they want to rein him part of the time and then he will show a little spark. make he doesn't want to stay on the controlled track because he wants to be shown he is not controlled by other people. that is his appeal. >> that could be part of it. the only thing when he gets into more fiery donald trumpesque attacks that gets clipped and played on tv and discussed in segment like this one. melissa: is it time for the rest of the party, do you think to make peace with him and kind of come over to this idea, if you wanted to be included in the party going forward, or if you want to, you know, win that it's time to make peace? seems like there are two camps since the win in new york. there are folks who would rather go down in flames. i rather the party go down in flames.

i want it to blow up because i can't stand this guy. there is a group, well you know what, it is time to the face the music. >> 62% of the republican voters so far have voted for not donald trump. voted for rest of the field. when you look at broader electorate, looking ahead to november, trump's disapproval rating or unfavorable rating is somewhere in the 65 to0% range among voters overall, really struggling with women. so i think there are a lot of conservatives, i among them, i make no secret about it, have issues with him on policy, temperment and other things. we're also concerned about his ability to win in november a lot of polling looks relatively bleak on that front. melissa: guy, i know which group you're in so i lobbed that one up to like a softball so you could crush it and out of the park. you did a fantastic jock. >> thank you. see you guys. david: there are the rules. republican rules committee just voted to keep the old rules, some delegates fear those rules could make it easier for the chairman and other folks at the top to insert a more

establish-ment-friendly candidate meaning someone other than trump or cruz if they arrive at the convention without getting 1237 candidates. sabrina schaefer is with us. we put up the poll a little while ago. over0% of the voters say the old rules shouldn't apply this time. in fact the candidate who has clearly plurality of votes should be the one who becomes the nominee. should they get their way? >> here's the thing, david, whether he realizes it or not donald trump is giving americans a little bit of a civic lesson. reality we don't live in democracy. we live in republic. both political parties have the ability to set the rules all along the way. they determine if they have a primary or caucus. they determine who can vote in their state. they choose delegates. all of this plays out on national stage come this summer. whether or not you like trump or you like cruz or bernie sanders

on hillary clinton, reality this is the system. it is a federalist system. that is the bigger story. david: it may be the system but systems change, particularly when 70% of the members of that particular party think it should change. fred, are those people's views important at all in this process? >> well, i think they're important but look. the candidate who comes the closest to winning a majority as we head into the convention is the person who has the best chance to win it. david: you said, comes the closest. does that mean somebody below 1237 could become the nominee? >> well, no, what i'm saying is, that person would have a better chance of getting enough delegates picking them up for the convention starts. there are plenty of unpledged delegates of candidates like marco rubio, 173 or 4 delegates he is holding on to negotiate because he has better chance of getting the nomination.

somebody way chance like john kasich don't have any strength in negotiating. david: fred, we talked about this before, party leaders i view them as being completely shell-shocked after new york. kind of, what happened? it is like, do they know where to go from here? >> they don't know. so there is nowhere for them to go. you know they're having this meeting in florida and best guess is they're not really doing anything over four days. what is there for them to do? david: i know what hillary clinton crew is doing. her super-pac has at least cash and pledges up to $140 million. that is a lot of cash. they're putting together a platform, some republicans are sounding like democrats going after trump saying the thing is, what scares us he is out of control. the whole ad campaign hillary will focus on will be just that. and she may have some republicans there with her maybe in the background supporting that idea that trump is an out of control guy and you don't

want him as president. >> certainly as guy pointed out a few minutes ago, there are a lot of republicans and a lot of voters who simply don't want trump. there is effort to stop him. whether or not they have been effective, appears they have not. it appears to have backlash effect. david: exactly. >> i think hillary clinton will do research necessary that she can beat donald trump. i don't put it past donald trump to beat hillary clinton but they will give it their all on democrat side. david: remember how little impact money has had in that past year of a campaign. it is extraordinary. jeb bush had all the money in the world, didn't help him a bit. look how bernie came up and in the end, trump may do it with very little amount of money spent. sabrina, fred, thank you very much, guys. >> you're welcome. melissa: queen elizabeth celebrating her 90th birthday today, becoming the first brittish monarch to reach that milestone. the queen posing with the youngest members of the royal family in honor of the day.

she holds the smallest of bunch, 11-month-old great granddaughter, princess charlotte in her lap. so cute. david: i don't like the monarchy, but i like her. i don't like the whole idea of -- she and her mother were great. the mon a aky, heck with it. that is how i feel. winning more delegates than sanders he won. a bernie supporter blasting the system for poisoning the party. >> three million people in new york state, three million people who registered as independents did not have the right to participate in the democrat or republican election. [booing] that is really not democracy.

what do we expect, greg? reporter: exactly, melissa. just landed, according to our reports and our video at an airport to the north of london to start the next leg of his trip. he is still taking in what happened in saudi arabia. let's talk about that in a moment. two days there. it was a bit of a fence-mending mission really with both saudi and gulf state leaders in a two-hour session yesterday with saudi king salman and meetings today with the gulf cooperation council. he sought to reassure them that the nuclear deal with iran did not mean the u.s. has taken its eye off of that nation's behavior. as the president described it, it is still of serious concern to his administration, dealing with isis and turmoil and in a range of countries. iraq, yemen, libya also an important topic. president obama in an "atlantic

monthly" article interview a few month ago had called some of those gulf countries, free riders. interestingly enough, melissa, according to deputy national security advisor ben rhodes, the topic of 9/11 did not come up in any conversations with the saudi leader or others. the reason according to rhoades, saudi arabia knows the obama administration's position for the release of that 28-page classified section of a 9/11 report dealing with the saudi role in the terror attack and against current legislation pending which would allow in fact a terror victim families to sue countries like saudi arabia. now, to the u.k. we'll be looking forward to tomorrow after it gets, president obama get as good night's sleep at randolph house. that is the ambassador to the u.k., for u.s. residents. of the he is prepared, according to the white house, to back his

ally, u.k. prime minister, david cameron and his position to stay in the european union. this is a very contentious issue. it has caused a lot of controversy, melissa, the last couple weeks here. there is a referendum in june whether to stay in the european union. critics who we have spoken to are very upset about this. they say president obama is meddling in domestic affairs. one said simply, he should but out. the fun part of this trip, lunch with the queen who is celebrating her 90th birthday today. dinner with the future king, prince william, the duke of cambridge at kensington palace. sometimes it is not only good to be king but sometimes it is good to be president too. back to you. melissa: thank you very much. david would love that teflon -- i couldn't resist. david: we'll be back with a supporter of bernie who thinks the democratic system is fixed. you don't want to miss that

david: it's tough road ahead for bernie sanders. the democratic senator still trailing behind hillary clinton in delegates and superdelegates. it is that last group the superdelegates our next guest says poisonses the democrat process. he is former mayor of seattle, washington, host of the podcast, you, me, us, now. i say to what a lot of people say to donald trump. you knew what the rules were months before the campaign. why didn't you spend all that time trying to change the rules instead of complaining about them now? >> this isn't so much about bernie sanders as about whether voters have the choice in the process. when superdelegates say who they have decided upon, it makes

voters think their chance once every four years to influence national politics they don't have the same chance they could have because it feels like it is decided already. david: it is a awful system. there was time to deal with the rules. bernie didn't spend anytime doing that. what do bernie sanders do? where do they go if they feel that bernie was jude out of the nomination? -- screwed out of the nomination. >> that is a strong phase. hillary clinton has been winning the popular vote and winning a lot of pledged delegate. those are the rules that they're playing by. and there is a big institutional barrier. one of the reasons bernie sanders is running because he feels that the influence of money in politics is so strong. i think once the partisanship passes a lot of those voters will come home to the democratic party and hillary clinton can help them come home adopting some of those themes. david: we have talked, mayor, we have talked to some bernie

supporters who are so upset they will vote for trump now? >> you know i remember eight years ago there were hillary clinton supporters who would never vote for obama. so when you're in the middle of a passionate campaign that is too early to ask those questions. let the campaign run its course. then ask that question. in fact i think some of those bernie sanders supporters are still fighting for him to win. david: yeah. >> you have to let them have that opportunity to try to do that. david: mayor, thank you very much. for coming on. appreciate you being here, mike. melissa: remembering the artist known aspirins. the music legend was one-of-a-kind. ♪ i use what's already inside me to reach my goals.
