michigan by 10,700 votes. it is also a microcosm of america. we have got majority black communities like detroit and flint and saginaw and benton harbor on the westof the state, we have got a broad swath of rural area across the state, and we have got strong suburbs in places like oakland county. it does look like america. the other part of this, though, michigan has been uniquely hit by a set of challenges that we saw during the great recession. the fact that we had these awful trade deals that decimated manufacturing, the fact that the current trade war has really hurt a lot of our agricultural industry, the second biggest industry in the state. and lastly, because we he sit on the great lakes, it is going to become increasingly important with what is happening with climate change, how we -- >> you lay out all of the elements of why it is an important state, in primary and in general. with all of that in mind and after winning the state and the primary in 2016, how much of a gut punch would it be if sanders would lose it then this time around? >> let me tell you, you know, i think senator sanders is speaking specifically to a set of challenges
