据美国中文网8日报道，近日，美国民主党总统竞选人、佛蒙特州参议员桑德斯正寻求民主党前竞选人沃伦的支持，试图扭转落后于竞争对手、美国前副总统拜登的颓势。不过，美国前国务卿希拉里认为，桑德斯不是击败现任总统特朗普的最强候选人。
在密歇根州、密苏里州和其他四个主要州的初选前几天，桑德斯在不少政治谈话节目中，强调了他在一系列问题上的左派政策与麻州参议员沃伦一致。沃伦于5日已经宣布退出选举。

周末，加州参议员卡马拉·哈里斯宣布，她将支持拜登赢得提名。截至目前，包括明尼苏达州民主党参议员克罗布彻、印第安纳州前市长皮特·布蒂吉格和纽约前市长布隆伯格在内的多位前竞选人宣布支持拜登。
桑德斯在接受CNN采访时说：“我们希望得到沃伦的支持，我们希望获得有数以百万计人支持的沃伦背书。”
“参议员沃伦谈到了财产税，我认为这非常重要。我们也有一项财产税政策，与她的财产税有细微的差别，但在收入巨大和财富不平等的时代却是相同的原则。”他补充说。“我们已经伸出援手，我们正在寻求沃伦参议员的支持者的支持，希望他们加入进来。”
与沃伦有密切关系的一个组织“进步变革运动委员会”(The Progressive Change Campaign Committee)，正在敦促其成员在密歇根州民主党初选中支持桑德斯。
报道称，该组织已向密歇根州的近16000名成员发出了信息。该组织希望看到初选竞选活动尽可能地继续进行，以确保两个主要候选人桑德斯和拜登可以经过选民充分的检测后，在11月直面现任总统特朗普。

不过，美国前国务卿希拉里·克林顿认为，佛蒙特州参议员桑德斯“不是击败唐纳德·特朗普的最强候选人。”她在接受美国全国广播公司(ABC)的采访时说：“他(桑德斯)是一名职业政治家。”
关于拜登，希拉里并没有直接表示对他的支持，而是对他正在建立的“联盟”以及自“超级星期二”获胜以来所产生的势头表示赞赏。
US presidential election: can Sanders beat trump? Hillary said that
Recently, Sen. Sanders of Vermont, the US Democratic presidential candidate, is seeking the support of Warren, the former Democratic candidate, to try to reverse the decline behind rival and former Vice President Biden, Chinanet reported Thursday. However, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton believes Sanders is not the strongest candidate to defeat current president trump.
A few days before the primary in Michigan, Missouri and four other major states, Sanders highlighted on many political talk shows that his left-wing policy on a range of issues was consistent with Senator warren of Massachusetts. Warren announced his withdrawal from the election on the 5th.
Over the weekend, California Senator camara Harris announced that she would support Biden in winning the nomination. So far, a number of former contenders, including Minnesota Democratic Senator Crocker, former Indiana mayor Peter butigger and former New York Mayor Bloomberg, have announced their support for Biden.
"We want Warren's support, we want Warren's endorsement with millions of people," Sanders told CNN
"Senator Warren talked about the property tax, which I think is very important. We also have a property tax policy, which is slightly different from her property tax, but the same principle in the era of huge income and wealth inequality. " He added. "We have reached out, and we are seeking the support of Senator Warren's supporters to join us."
The progressive change campaign committee, an organization close to Warren, is urging its members to support Sanders in the Michigan Democratic primary.
The group has sent messages to nearly 16000 Michigan members, the report said. The group wants to see the primary campaign continue as much as possible to ensure that the two main candidates, sanders and Biden, can face current president trump in November after being fully tested by voters.
But former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Senator Sanders of Vermont "is not the strongest candidate to beat Donald Trump." "He is a professional politician," she told ABC
With regard to Biden, Hilary did not directly express her support for him, but expressed appreciation for the "alliance" he was building and the momentum generated since the "super Tuesday" victory.
