Bernie Sanders' Gentlemanly, Statesmanlike Concession Statement:

From Bernie Sanders.com: Sanders' Statement on Super Tuesday:

PHOENIX – U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders on Tuesday issued the following statement:

“I congratulate Secretary Clinton on her victories on Tuesday. I also want to thank the millions of voters across the nation who supported our campaign and elected delegates who will take us all the way to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

“With more than half the delegates yet to be chosen and a calendar that favors us in the weeks and months to come, we remain confident that our campaign is on a path to win the nomination.”

choice.
