Definitely. As I noticed this Bernie started raising his hand lol

Great question about drugs and passing the cost along.

I hope Bernie is next to discuss UHC.

O'Malley is doing well.

He did give a good answer, but he knew it and it showed.

I can't stand Hillary but this is correct. We are not and should not be at war with Islam.

No we shouldn't... but hiding or wording the enemy without acknowledging their origin is silly....

As much as I despise the UN, the best possible response to the latest attacks in Paris, was the UN...

Despite our political, cultural views, if the world.. can agree that IS and those of the same vein are so vile that they can agree to eliminate that from the rest of the issues that divide us.. I would be all for it..

YMMV

Spare me the bull#, Hillary.

The ACA is junk and you know it.

Whenever I see O'Malley I think about this guy.

a reply to: JacKatMtn

I wholeheartedly disagree. There's already enough hatred toward Muslims, so much that it blinds us and let's us be lead down the easiest path which happens to be the worse.

a reply to: Kali74

I guess, you missed my point that IS and their like are the problem, not the religion...

If you do nothing because of sensitivity towards the religion as a whole, what do you do?

The moderators are a couple of well documented left wingers. Why do Democrats always get lock step supporters as moderators and Republicans get hostile, combative, partisan moderators?

I think it's interesting they're taking questions from Twitter.

Are you watching the debate? The Mods are actually asking very important questions and making the candidates articulate their positions beyond taglines.

O'Malley just fell on his face comparing minimum wage to MIDDLE INCOME...


Sad state if Min wage (no matter what it is) would be considered middle income worthy...

They scripted their last debate, going as far as demanding a certain thermostat setting.

You sound like a socialist, Jack.

a reply to: JacKatMtn

I did misunderstand you. None of the candidates shied from saying ISIS. They all did.

To Sanders saying reinstate Glass-Steagal...

Glass-Steagle for the win!

Bernie killed it.

I think Sanders is sincere and what he says sounds great, but is over simplistic and not going to make a difference when it comes to minimum wage.

You raise minimum wage the cost of goods go up and your buying power decreases and if you are lucky it will stay the same.

What would be better for Americans is to concentrate on the foreign labour being outsourced and foreign labour being brought in to perform high demand jobs at low demand prices.

Although I like how he just through Hillary under the bus for the SuperPacs.

Hillary...don't tell me you're going to regulate Wallstreet when you take their money. There's no way they'd give you money if you're going to clamp down on them. Doing so is like asking a kid to give up all his toys.

Bernie, good on you for not taking big money -- but that answer just wasn't very solid. I like how he said he's indebted to the little people.

And Hillary bringing up 9/11 in conjunction with Wallstreet, SMH. Way to deflect.
