Analysis:
This article is an opinion piece which supports Bernie Sanders' continued candidacy in the face of criticisms by the Clinton camp that he's prolonging the inevitable and his harsher tone is a danger to the party. The article criticizes these arguments as condescending towards Sanders and his supporters.

Bernie Sanders Dominates Washington, Alaska, And Hawaii Primaries (The Young Turks)
-Dylan Stump
Analysis:
This video delves into the big wins Sanders scored on Saturday night. The panel talks about the attempts by mainstream pundits to paint states that go Sanders as lacking diversity, pointing out that such a claim is bogus when only 25% of Hawaii is white. They also discuss arguments of "party unity" as silly, believing either Clinton or Sanders would crush Trump in a general election.

Hillary Campaign Threatens Withholding Debates Over Bernie's “Tone" (The Young Turks)
-Dylan Stump
Analysis:
This video delves into the claim by a Clinton strategist that they dislike the "tone" of Sanders' campaign and are hesitant to hold any debates going forward. The panel shows clear support for Sanders on this issue, pointing out the hypocrisies of how Clinton supporters would likely disapprove of the Sanders camp criticizing Hillary's tone. They also point out that if tone is a deal-breaker for Hillary in debates, it's likely going to be a bigger issue if facing off against Trump in the general election.
