Superdelegates Clinton 502, Sanders 38
Unpledged Democratic party leaders who are free to support any candidate. The majority of the 712 superdelegates have declared support for Mrs. Clinton, though they could switch candidates if she were to lose the lead in pledged delegates, which are awarded based on election results.
Hillary Clinton and Donald J. Trump have drawn closer to their parties’ nominations with almost every passing week. The five elections on Tuesday — in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island — may offer them their best chance before June to gain a final, decisive advantage over their opponents.
But Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont has been a tenacious opponent on the Democratic side, and could find precincts of strength even on a Primary Day that favors Mrs. Clinton. Gov. John Kasich of Ohio and Senator Ted Cruz of Texas face even more daunting terrain on the Republican side; for them, this week is a battle for survival.

People on welfare are lazy and arrogant. They live significantly better lives than majority of true hard working Americans. 65-100% of welfare people regularly abuse it. If we ban welfare maybe they'd get real jobs and actually contribute! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDmN3eWeCcA

Jane Jacobs: The Last Interview: and Other Conversations .
Jane Jacobs, OC, O.Ont (May 4, 1916 – April 25, 2006) was an American-born Canadian writer and activist with primary interest in communities and urban planning and decay. She is best known for The Death and Life of Great American Cities (1961), a powerful critique of the urban renewal policies of the 1950s in the United States. The book has been credited with reaching beyond planning issues to influence the spirit of the times.
Along with her well-known printed works, Jacobs is equally well-known for organizing grassroots efforts to block urban-renewal projects that would have destroyed local neighborhoods. She was instrumental in the eventual cancellation of the Lower Manhattan Expressway, and after moving to Canada in 1968, equally influential in canceling the Spadina Expressway and the associated network of highways under construction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_Jacobs

Artists anxious finding their songs opening or conclusion of meetings of a candidate deemed enough from their beliefs.

With the elegance which it is customary, Mr. Trump said he would consider his request adding on his Twitter account, the famous @realDonaldTrump, the controversy had led to the artist, who does not hide his republican affinities, more publicity than his artistic work over the past decade.
A month earlier, retired from REM were outraged that their success It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) is played to end a rally in Washington on September 10, against the agreement on Iran's nuclear program during which Mr. Trump had spoken.

“I want Donald Trump to come to London so I can introduce myself to him as a mainstream Muslim, very, very comfortable with Western liberal values, but also introduce him to hundreds of thousands, dare I say millions of Muslims in this country, who love being British, love being Western,” Khan, London’s recently elected first Muslim mayor, http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/london-mayor-sadiq-khan-wants-educate-trump-islam-n573591

'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson says he'll 'enthusiastically' back Donald Trump in the general election despite being an advocate for Ted Cruz during the primaries
Ann Coulter is back, more fearless than ever. In Adios, America she touches the third rail in American politics, attacking the immigration issue head-on and flying in the face of La Raza, the Democrats, a media determined to cover up immigrants' crimes, churches that get paid by the government for their "charity," and greedy Republican businessmen and campaign consultants—all of whom are profiting handsomely from mass immigration that’s tearing the country apart. Applying her trademark biting humor to the disaster that is U.S. immigration policy, Coulter proves that immigration is the most important issue facing America today.
