Hillary Clinton steps up attack on Bernie Sanders

Bernie Sanders has questioned whether Democratic presidential nomination rival Hillary Clinton is “qualified” to be president after she spent much of the day criticising his record and his preparedness for the job.

“She has been saying lately that she thinks that I am, quote unquote, not qualified to be president,” Mr Sanders told a crowd of more than 10,000 people at Temple University’s Liacouras Centre, Philadelphia.

“I don’t believe that she is qualified if she is, through her super PAC, taking tens of millions of dollars in specialinterest funds.”
