Still ahead, Bernie Sanders is out of the race for president , but we have not heard the last from the vermont senator our political analyst Michael Yockey will be joining us live with more. Now to break down this big decision today from Bernie Sanders is our political analyst Michael Yockey thank you so much for joining us here in kron 4 news at 5. So just not up to Bernie Sanders decision to bow out. Well i think that this is all very much complicated by the pandemic. When you look at the cold hard facts. He was over 200 delegates behind it was going to be almost impossible to make that up. And in this case more and more the primaries being kicked further further back and thats not good in terms of trying to get the party united together to deal with. From the democratic point of view dealing with President Trump so bernie took the i think the the honorable path out realizing this is not going to get any better and could only get worse and a top and a left the ring and gave it gave it all the job, but you know theres still a lot left to be done. And bernie made it clear that he wants you know to have a say in how the party moves forward in the general election. I expect that will happen. Does this help or hurt the Democratic Party because as i understand it, bernie dropping out the stops any political infighting between now and whenever the primary would be or even before the convention which we know has been pushed back. So does this help them the democrats get a united voice going into the spring and summer. Well, it certainly makes it very clear that the Democratic Party in terms of response President Trump will speak with only one voice and that voice will be joe biden but by no means is there is all the conflict i was the National National executive director of the democratic a platform in obama obamas First Campaign and you we were dealing with integrating Hillary Clintons ideas into the platform, so theyre still going to be a little push a little shot. But yeah that the party is going to be unified in moving forward and this is only good news for joe bidens hes got to figure out a way to get air time because right now the president as every to every day at about 2. 30 our time. Free airtime on all the networks and finds got to figure out a way to combat so biden cant have any rallies but this does set up. The right ticket for a biden versus trump come november for any reason the election doesnt happen in november, we can get to that later but whats that matchup look like to you. Well i think that the big for the next month or so its all going to be about the entry is going to be whos going to be the Vice President biden said on national tv that he wanted to be a woman. A lot of prominent names have been floated. Com layers including from our own state Amy Klobuchar are. Governor Kathy Whitmer of michigan whos been dealing with the coronavirus so these are these are things that are going to be going on that kind of intrigue will happen and that might actually help draw little attention. Both good and bad in some ways the joe biden so hes got to figure a way how to make that make that appeared to be decisive. Moving forward thats almost going to be his first big moment coming up in terms of how to get any airtime against President Trump. While the pandemic continues. Yeah thats definitely a way to. Get some attention because thats something Everyone Wants to hear is who does he want to have this is running mate because he said that it would be a woman.
