		</div><p>Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has told his supporters he will work with Hillary Clinton to transform the party, adding that his &#8220;political revolution&#8221; must continue and ensure the defeat of Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Mr Sanders told his political followers online that the major task they face is to &#8220;make certain&#8221; Mr Trump is defeated. The Vermont senator said he plans to begin his role in that process &#8220;in a very short period of time&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;But defeating Donald Trump cannot be our only goal. We must continue our grassroots efforts to create the America that we know we can become,&#8221; Mr Sanders said. &#8220;And we must take that energy into the Democratic National Convention on July 25 in Philadelphia where we will have more than 1,900 delegates.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Sanders spoke from his Vermont home town of Burlington a week after Ms Clinton secured enough pledged delegates and superdelegates to become the presumptive nominee.</p>
<p>He has not yet conceded the race or referred to Ms Clinton as the likely nominee, but the two rivals met on Tuesday night in a Washington DC hotel along with advisers to discuss policy goals and future plans.</p>
<p>In the speech, Mr Sanders thanked his supporters for providing more than $200m in donations, and rattled off the work of his loyalists: 1.5 million people who attended his rallies and town meetings and more than 75 million phone calls from volunteers &#8220;urging their fellow citizens into action&#8221;.</p>
<p>Mr Sanders said that while it is &#8220;no secret&#8221; that he and Ms Clinton have &#8220;strong disagreements on some very important issues&#8221;, it is &#8220;also true that our views are quite close on others&#8221;.</p>
<p>He said he looked forward to additional talks between the two campaigns to ensure that his supporters&#8217; voices are heard and the convention adopts &#8220;the most progressive platform&#8221; in the party&#8217;s history.</p>
<p>He looked forward to working with Ms Clinton &#8220;to transform the Democratic Party so that it becomes a party of working people and young people, and not just wealthy campaign contributors&#8221;.</p>
<p>The speech &#8211; which could be his final address before the summer convention &#8211; was viewed by more than 200,000 people, according to the campaign. It sought to shape his legacy as a one-time &#8220;fringe&#8221; candidate who generated a massive following through sprawling rallies and threatened Ms Clinton for the nomination.</p>
<p>Looking ahead to the convention, Mr Sanders said the party must support a $15-an-hour federal minimum wage, pay equity for women, a ban on the sale and distribution of assault weapons and a defeat of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.</p>
<p>He encouraged his followers to consider running for political office up and down the country as a way to prevent Republicans from controlling state and local government.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have begun the long and arduous process of transforming America, a fight that will continue tomorrow, next week, next year and into the future,&#8221; he said.</p>

Please Bernie do not join Hillary!
I will be so disappointed if he joins up with Hillary.
I really like Bernie and just hope he never joins up with Hillary. It will be nothing but tragic.
