LOS ANGELES (AP) — Hillary Clinton urged Democrats on Thursday to unite around her candidacy as a way of fending off Republican Donald Trump, telling black community leaders that her advantage over Bernie Sanders far outpaces the deficit she faced in the 2008 primaries. Barack Obama in 2008, Clinton said they were "neck and neck" in the popular vote but that she eventually relented and campaigned hard to elect him president. [...] her pointed comments in Los Angeles were the closest she has come to suggesting Sanders should move on to allow Democrats to concentrate on Trump, who became the presumptive GOP nominee this week after Republicans Ted Cruz and John Kasich ended their campaigns. Sanders has vowed to barnstorm the state in hopes of winning a large trove of delegates here and has shown few signs of stepping aside.
