First Democratic Debate

I love it!!! A woman should be able to stay at home with her new born child to spend time nurturing before returning to work, oh that is if she chooses not to abort it. Then taxpayers should pay for that. By the way i do believe there should be some extended time for the bond between the mother and child. I just thought it was kinda hypocritical to on one hand acknowledge a mother an child and on another speak of a mother choosing to end the bond before it starts.

This debate is a far cry better than the GOP Kardashian debates. I'm still on the fence though with the democrats. Of the five in no certain order.......O'Malley, Clinton and Sanders did very well IMHO. I'm an independent btw. Definitely not voting GOP.

Health insurance copanies lol, and Iranians you struck a deal with LOLOLOLOLIDGAF

whatever clinton Liar

So far:

Best to worst body language wise
This is NOT talking about their stands or
who I like the best or don't like,
but whose body language is the most
"presidential" looking
and who would be voted President;
if voted on looks combined with body language
without looking at policy:

Best: O'Malley
Hillary
Sanders
Webb
Worst: Chaffee

I think we all know whom won this debate.

Not the American people.

Huge influence on our gov't is the power generation companies, much like the railroad industry... a LONG LONG history of having bought and paid for representation in DC...

Maglev rails should already be in the process of replacing the exisiting railway system... start with port to distribution, then work outwards from there...

Solar, Tidal generated electricity should be in the process of replacing the exisiting power grid, let that be the "backup" used as needed.. ( not so much a wind generated advocate needs to be more efficient and less impactful to it's surrounding environment...)

These things can be done... we don't need a political based agenda like carbon credits

The GOP

For me, looking at the entire thing objectively, Bernie won this debate. He is the only one that looks like he actually believes what he says. He does appear to have conviction of his views and didn't seem apologetic for anything he believes. I respect him for that.

Agreed.

So what did they "solve" anyway?

I think we all know which two were given the podium as a personal soapbox while the other 3 ate the scraps.


This was a farce.

And yet there was still less Hillary talk than in both the republican debates.

O'Malley just killed his close. IMHO.

Ugh feed went down and CNN is like 10 minutes behind for me.

Charlie, well put.

There is nobody in either party who has a swag, who can move people.

I have to say that O'Malley had a pretty darn good closing speech.

I also agree that he's had the best body language out of them all.

a reply to: grandmakdw

Body language was the initial catalyst which got JFK, the underdog, to win against Nixon in '60. Nixon appeared nervous and wasn't media (tv) savvy.

Definitely liked O'Malley best over all.

My last thoughts:

Bernie wants to actually change things.......I dont agree with him on a lot of things........

Hillary wants to keep the status quo because it helps her make money, and shes playing on her "woman" role

The battle for the future of our republic rages on
