he asked me to chair the dnc after tim kaine ran for the senate, so we know how to come back togetherocratic national committee to be ready for the general and to be able to manage that process as well. >> we just heard your republican counterpart reince priebus, the chairman of the committee, say basically that hillary clinton, i think i'm paraphrasing now, is in a rut right now, she's in deep trouble. they think she would be a weaker democratic candidate than even bernie sanders would be. your reaction? >> you know, i know that my counterpart is doing his best not to poor bailey's in his own coffee, to use his words. he's putting the best spin on the situation he can. the reality is he has utter chaos going on. he has open warfare from his front-runner whose likely to be his nominee and in donald trump. he goes on tv and is not talking about the issues, he's talking about defending the rules. we do have rules. the candidates know what those are. be that as it may, no party chair wants to be debating their own likely nominee over rules and process. they want to make sure at the end o

i want to thank senator kaine for that very powerful and compelling summary of concerns that i share. i will not give my own version of him because he stated them very well in the and your for a long time and i thank you for being here so patiently and so informatively to this committee i noted mr. secretary that there was a note of pride in your voice on you said you were not a lawyer. which i forgive you. >> i only meant that i was a physicist. >> there are many days there were i wish i was a physicist and there is no way i could be, so, thank you both for your service. i want to explore an issue that i think is extremely important, the evolving military cooperation between russia and iran -- and may have been mentioned here but not in depth reports that russia's shipment of parts of an air defense system to iran. in addition, western iran supposedly in talks over fighter jets. if the systems are delivered, there has been a violation of security council 2231. i am not an international lawyer may seems pretty clear that would be a violation which requires security council approval fo

both senators from the swing commonwealth of virginia, tim kaine and warner. julio castro, former governor deval patrick of massachusetts and senators amy klobuchar, bill nelson and bill booker. clinton was mum when asked about this topic on the campaign trail yesterday. >> has your campaign started to consider who to pick for vp? >> i'm just working hard to win on tuesday. >> at the very least it seems to signal that clinton is ready to move past the primaries, while her opponent, bernie sanders, insists that the fight is far from over. joining me now is democratic presidential candidate bernie sanders, joining me from the great state of rhode island. senator, thanks so much for joining us. >> great to be with you, jake. >> senator, according to the "new york times," hillary clinton started compiling a list of 15 to 20 potential vp picks that she wants to start vetting in late spring. broadly, regardless of which of the two of you ultimately wins the democratic nomination, should the other one be first on the vp list? >> look i'm focusing right now on dealing

hud secretary and castro would help her with latino, the first person mentioned as vp pick and tim kainermer governor of massachusetts. and thom perez, labor secretary and mark warner, helps her in a critical region and elizabeth warren perhaps the most interesting name on the list, she would help her rally the progressives to bring over the sanders supporters. as you well know, warren has yet to endorse any candidate and there's a sense there's not a lot of warmth between warren and secretary clinton. there are other signs secretary clinton is pivoting to the general election. as you pointed out, she has been hitting donald trump hard on the campaign trail and she released a new ad aimed at drawing a sharp distinction with him. take a look. ♪ spread a little open love now ♪ ♪ we need to make sure he gets a chance to know how to do that ♪ ♪ walking on together now ♪ america is stronger when we are all supporting each other ♪ >> the add is entitled "love and ki kindness" to you ni the country opposed to divide it, trying to make the case trump is the more divisive candidate. i spoke with
