With the last primary done, Bernie Sanders is negotiating an end to his fight with Hillary Clinton and staking a claim on directing the future of the Democratic Party.
After polls closed for the Democratic contest in Washington, D.C., Sanders had a private meeting with Clinton that lasted almost two hours.
