2:42 am
of course i have. in fact if you look at the record. letters that i have sent out. in support of the united states senators, raised millions of dollars. let me tell you something else. i say this sincerely. the polls indicate this. for democrats to do well. not only at the highest level in the senate races and house races we need a large voter turnout. i think there is very little doubt that a bernie sanders -- winning the nomination and being democratic candidate will in fact create the excitement and large voter turnout. not only to win the white house, but to regain control of the senate. and governors chairs all over the country. >> tom is a big day in new york. right now the polls are showing, hillary clinton is leading you by 10 points. what do you see in the polls the rest of us don't that you feel confident about victory tomorrow? >> we have won eight of nine primaries and caucuses. i think we have a lot of energy indicated by 28,000 people coming out, rally in brooklyn. large rallies we held. if voter turnout is gh
2:43 am
the story of the campaign. voter turnout low, we will probably not do well. also, polling underestimates our strength. in michigan, a poll out, had us 20 points behind the day before the election. ended up winning. >> independent voters cannot vote tomorrow? >> now on to a big issue. nothing much i can dieo it. what it says, hundreds of thousand or more, independent whose would like to vote tomorrow for me or anybody else they can't participate. we win independent voters. 2:1. >> she is way ahead in superdelegates. donald trump says the republican system is fixed. >> rigged. >> rigged. >> is he stealing my terminology here? nothing this guy won't do. >> well how bad is the democratic system? >> i have serious problems with it. it, this is the establishment folks. these are, elected officials. these are money people.
2:44 am
the truth is most of them are now supporting hillary. but let me just say this. as you may know in poll after poll including your own polls here at cbs, i run much stronger against donald trump than does hillary clinton. the reason for that by the way, we have a lot of independent voters. if we do well, superdelegates and others are going to say what we have got to beat trump. bernie is the stronger canned dade. >> what if in fact you winning these contests, last, six, seven. she is getting a significant number of the delegates. the delegates will nominate the candidate? >> right. we think there is a path towards victory. >> which is? >> which is winning delegates. california. >> huh are you going to do it? >> getting more delegates than she does. for example. >> you haven't been doing that is the point? >> well, i would say that we have cut her lead by a third in the last month. that's pretty good. that's what happens when you win eight out of nine caucuses and primaries. now we will see what happened
2:45 am
i won't speculate. you have california, oregon, pennsylvania. >> what does it mean for you if you lose in new york? >> what does it mean if i lose, i lose. >> what implication does it have for your campaign? >> we are going all the way. california. into the convention. in philadelphia. we think we have a path towards victory. we are going to fight for every vet out there. >> senator, you made anner eisf transparency. today is tax day. hillary clinton released eight years, last eight years, in addition to ones before that. you only released one you. just did it friday. why haven't you done that? >> i will tell you the reason. it sound too simple. but true. in our family, we don't have 15 accountants. >> you have to pay your taxes on time like the rest of us. not that hard to release summary of your taxes. >> we have relsed our taxes. >> one year. one year. >> i said we will release more. we will release more. and what they will end up showing is that our total inme

2:47 am
it means that given the nature of economics in politics in america today. where wall street and wealthy campaign contributors of the corporate media have so much power that the only way we transform america, bring health care to all. we deal with paid family and medical leave. we deal with income, wealth, inequality. no president, not bernie sanders or anybody else can do it alone. you need millions to stand up and demand a government that represents all of us not just the 1%. that's what high mean by that. >> an issue means a lot. new york tabloid, the daily news, about 9/11. the building congress, about, suing saudi arabia. do you the favorit it? >> no, not about suing saudi arabia. >> you can sue saudi arabia. >> it is about suing any government, not just saudi arabia. that may have been involved in terrorism that kills americans.
2:48 am
president obama says don't do it. open us up to a lot of suits. the saudi government has threatened to, to, sell a lot of their teasuries that they're holding. >> two issues there. the president has a valid point. it does concern me. what is also involved in there. i believe 28 pages of classified information on 9/11. >> have you read them? >> no, i have not. >> what i think there is some speculation, and not into speculation, is that they indicate that parts of the saudi family may have funded some of the terrorists. look, let's be honest about saudi arabia. this is one of the wealthiest families in the world. this is a family that spread this very virulent extremist ideology which is extreme islam, they keep, they set up schools all over the world to teach this. i have real concerns about that. so i think getting the truth out about the role that saudi arabia

over the years, i have played some characters you could call controlling. but the truth is, there is so much in life we can't control. but here's something we can: colorectal cancer. it affects men and women, and it's the second leading cancer killer in the u.s., which is astouing, considering it's almost entirely preventable! here's how: most colon cancers start as polyps, and screening helps find polyps, so they can be removed before they even turn into cancer. screening also finds this cancer early, when treatment works best. for me, screening was simple and quick. it was no big deal, except for the huge sense of relief you feel afterwards. there are several tests that you can choose from. if you're 50 or older, you should talk to your doctor. decide which one is right for you. but take control. do everything you can to prevent colon cancer. screening saves lives.
