Hillary Clinton will not debate Bernie Sanders in California

Declining to participate in the Fox News debate -- which Sanders had agreed to -- is another clear sign that Clinton and her top aides are fully focused on the general election against Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.

17. If the race is only for her benefit then that's a good point.

I would hope a "most qualified" politician would evaluate her decisions based on their value to others.

I'm shocked, I tell you. Shocked!

Since the time is blocked out and Sanders has already agreed to appear, they need to make it into a town hall for him.

13. It shows again how she keeps an agreement.

When she asked for more debates, both sides agreed
on certain terms. She now reneges.

Will she have the same attitude about the Iran
agreement? I have now doubt that she will do
the same with it as she does now with Bernie.

No matter whether she is winning or not, this
shows that the public's distrust in her words or
actions is totally justified.
