the billionaire michael bloomberg has quit the democratic presidential nomination basis not five hundred million dollars down having funded his campaign. out of his own pocket to super tuesday was an inbox he's not bouncing says he could back biden well the former vice president joe biden made up ground within ten states of the fourteen super tuesday primaries gallopers bernie sanders. now leads strongly what looks more and more like a two horse race. speaking of the common and- around the gave election political science at tufts university rhonda thank you for being with us. i just said it so put it to you is this not a two horse race do you thinink. absolutely i don'ti it's hard to think in. recent memory at times that the democratic party in any party but specifically the democratic party. highs so swiftly and so conclusively. i decided on on
3:39 pm
really you one person to coalesce around and that person is joe biden- in the last few days. we've gone from wondering whether that fight in camp he- really had what it took in terms of infrastructure and your campaign strategy. if they have anything left. to looking at south carolina where you really got- a huge boost adequate support from the african american community. and then with seeing the moderates are dropping out of f the race people energized. any clover char not only that i'm dropping out of the rarace. the backing hihi and then going in with to super tuesday with a tremendous amount of momentum- that propels him. have wildly beyond expectations- while they believe beyond polling averages- and such. he is now ahead of the delegates at that bernie sanders house. i it's hard to really if we don't
3:40 pm
really see a way forward. laffer senator warren. and now that i have the mike bloomberg has dropped out and endorsed by it and- i it's only going to make it easier for joe biden to be able to capture. moderate. is rather r than that i'm in the states that had. so hearing pretty loud and clear you think the joe biden is go a and win the want to get the nominee. do you feel. i need there a kind of feel within the demo party do you think that this is the right person to unite the party because that's one of the big issues is that the way the party is split. yes so you know there is. there is- i so there one there i have been really two categories. of orders that i'm- i'm really popped out and the exit polls that we- had those who identify themselves. as really focusing on electability. yeah people who
3:41 pm
can beat trump. and those who are voting based on shared my values. and in general they shares my values voters i have sorted more into the burning into warring camps. and electability ones i have. been more on the biden cancer. i and at the end of the day i think that- that joe biden's experience. as certainly- could have put him in a favorable light with respect to electability. i'm the fact that so many voters have. a you know associated with the obama years. the best thing that but the but what what's best for joe biden in terms of. of electability. is the strength that he is having with the african american community- this is a coalition without which the democratic party cannot hope to win. i will add so you know looking at south carolina the african american voters. backed by dunes laos forty one over sanders.. that's
3:42 pm
non trivial- yeah this is. this is a really core demographic group for the democrats. and so if we if we take that and he was really. happy i'm garnering a lot of support from from the- space. that is. and that he it alan of course that if the by camp was. for a long into of infrastructure in terms. and you know that doctor matter that biden why a lot of state and on tier and he didn't really go to. a home you know he didn't have the big rallies he didn't have the big fundraising and so what the big question in terms of how well he can do. i'm moving forward from this and really keeping up that momentum so to speak- and especially up against donald trump- is that is can he leverage these successes into
3:43 pm
bringing in big numbers. i and if i were if i were on a strategist for joe biden i would be wondering how quickly i can get access to mike bloomberg's digital team. i fund raising b. as those are two areas where i would really what suits you need to deploy additional reason. will take a look at that the yeah thank you much for sharing your analysis with. a sub around the from the- that's university but she's left ata political that you very much for us. greek authorities fired tear gas and stun g grenades to drive away a crowd of m migrants making a puh to cross the b border from turkey. as pressure on greece continuess after turkey declared its previously guarded gateways to europe now open. tickets are thirty said gunfire from the greek side killed one person and wounded five others decision the greek government has r rejected as quote fake news. cameras jensen reports in
