Clinton on Ellen DeGeneres: 'I do believe' Sanders will support me
Hillary Clinton stops by talk show for a third time as a candidate
to discuss the race – and whether she’d prefer Beyoncé or Leo
DiCaprio for vice-president

Clinton dropped by the show’s studio between campaign stops to tape her third appearance since becoming a presidential candidate. With a largely female audience and an adoring host, the presumptive Democratic nominee has relied on the show to help connect with voters, particularly women who will play a crucial role in a prospective general election against Donald Trump.
DeGeneres, who made it clear she was supporting Clinton, asked her if she thought her Democratic opponent, Bernie Sanders, should drop out. Sanders has vowed to stay in the race until the California primary on 7 June, and possibly until the convention, even though his path is mathematically unlikely.
Clinton demurred as she had in the past, making it clear that she believes the Democratic primary has already been won.
“Look, I think he has to do what he chooses to do,” she said. “I understand that. I ran all the way to the end against then Senator Obama. And when it was over, because we had a much closer race than the one currently is between Senator Sanders and myself, I withdrew. I endorsed him and I worked really hard to elect him and I do believe that Bernie will do that.”
