The 74-year-old socialist senator from Vermont called on stage at CNN that it once had to be finished with the attacks on the emails of Clinton, who during her time as Minister of Foreign Affairs state affairs with her private mail fielded.

The remarks of Sanders could count on applause in the hall of the Wynn hotel-casino in Las Vegas where especially many Clinton supporters had gathered. Yet Clinton is certainly not from the scandal. In little more than a week, she must appear at a hearing to explain himself.

Besides Sanders and Clinton were still three Democratic candidates, Jim Webb, Martin O'Malley and Lincoln Chafee appear on stage. But they barely played a significant role. Webb, former senator for Virginia, asked several times desperate to talk more. However, the focus was to Sanders and Clinton.
