Biden says there's no reason to worry about a 'split in the Democratic Party'
When it comes to the presidential race and the future of the Democratic Party, Vice President Joe Biden just wants people to take a deep breath and relax.
While in Ohio on Wednesday, Biden told reporters that despite the chaotic Nevada Democratic convention over the weekend and the strife that's followed it, "there's no fundamental split in the Democratic Party." He added that he is "confident that Bernie [Sanders] will be supportive if Hillary [Clinton] wins, which the numbers indicate will happen. So I'm not worried."
