Fiorina Surges, Trump Doesn't Disavow Birther Question

WNYC | Sep 18, 2015

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina is hoping to capitalize on her strong debate performance this week. At an event in New Hampshire Thursday night, real estate mogul Donald Trump didn’t challenge a voter who claimed that President Obama is Muslim and not an American citizen.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is trying to bolster her declining support among women voters. And, surging in the polls, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders will appear tonight on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

Here & Now hosts Peter O’Dowd and Meghna Chakrabarti are joined by Michael Scherer of Time magazine and Molly Ball of The Atlantic to discuss this week’s news in the race for 2016.
