After months of build-up for Hillary Clinton as a shoo-in choice as the Democratic nominee for president in 2016, now she has company. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., a self-described Socialist, has announced his candidacy and gives signs of mounting an aggressive campaign. In his news conferences, President Obama often follows a practice of giving longwinded responses, which has the effect of limiting the number of questions reporters can ask. But he couldn't get by with that while being interviewed by middle school student Osman Yahya. After rambling for more than three minutes about experiencing writer's block when he wrote his speeches, the kid interviewer politely said: "I think you've sort of covered everything about that question."
