Sanders: Replace DNC Leadership

[Purveyor]

Bernie Sanders called for the removal of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) as the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) as part of a “fundamental transformation of the Democratic Party” in an impromptu news conference Tuesday afternoon.

He ignored repeated questions from reporters as to whether he'd drop out of the presidential race after he met with presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton Tuesday evening.

When asked whether he could see himself nominating Clinton on the floor of the party's national convention, like Clinton did for then-Sen. Barack Obama in 2008, Sanders chuckled and repeated his assertion that "we are going to fight as hard as we can" to change the party.

“I do believe that we have to replace the current Democratic National Committee leadership,” he said outside his campaign headquarters in Washington.

“We need a person at the leadership of the DNC who is vigorously supporting and out working to bring people into the political process.”
