The most recent Democratic Debate was fairly interesting. Mostly it was the Bernie Sanders and Hilary Clinton show for the most part. To me this felt a lot more serious and less of a circus then the Republican Debate. Martin O’Malley was pretty meh, Lincoln Chafee seemed a bit lost and Jim Webb “didn’t have much time” to do anything and basically all three of them weren’t ready for something like this. People said that the debate was boring and too civil that’s why the ratings were down from the last event, but to me having less homophobic, racist and aborted fetus talk was just too much for my taste. I like it when things like politics and the opportunity to find the possibly new US leader of the free world who literally has the future of the country we live, yeah I taking seriously. No one or as I should say no logical person wants a guy (I’m not saying any names) that has bankrupted four companies, had ties to the Italian Mob (Salvatore Testa interesting story to know), says nothing but racist, homophobic, and sexist things and wasn’t even the coolest person on his own show and there’s a cooler show about “billionaire’s”, it’s called Shark Tank The highlight is obviously seeing the legendary Gandalf making an appearance to the debate. I didn’t know there were actual wizards, I mean did you see that guy’s beard? That’s more proof then I ever need, why is he running for president and whatever happened to DEEZ NUTZ? I guess we’ll never know? The debate was really interesting and if I can nitpick the only thing I didn’t like was CNN’s Las Vegas puns. Ok we get it, they’re having a debate in Vegas enough of the high stakes poker and boxing references.
This is more of a race about who’s going to be Hilary Clinton’s running mate or possibly Bernie Sanders running mate. I did liked about what Bernie Sanders said about free tuition because having something that is and should be free is always a good thing. People don’t give Bernie Sanders that much credit, maybe it an old guy thing, he did say some stuff I agree with and that I think most people agree with. I’m not saying he’s going to win because of it because you never know in situations like this, but for example when they talked about Edward Snowden and him going to Russia as a way to escape and they all said that he’s a traitor and blah blah blah. Except Bernie Sanders who stated the obvious that yes what he did was somewhat illegal but the same can be said about the NSA and how they are storing our personal and private phone calls. I liked the back and forth that Hilary and Bernie had, even when they had the conversation about her emails. Let’s be honest no one cares and I liked how Bernie basically spoke out what everyone was thinking. I also liked how they addressed climate change and jobs. It’s pretty simple to understand too. Pollution destroys our environment so by creating more green jobs that helps preserve our environment we are creating more jobs for the American people so that they can get a steady income which also helps our economy. Bernie Sanders did fall a little back on immigration and the gun issue. Hilary gave to what I think is the obvious answer. STOP LETTING THE NRA CONTROL OUR LAWS!!!! And that this whole thing about immigration isn’t as big of a deal as people make it out to be. They not rapists as some people want the American public to believe, they’re just here to make a living and support their family. And this country was built on and by immigrants that’s why the U.S is called a melting pot in the first place. All in all this debate really shown the overall power of Hilary Clinton and someone that put himself out there and is on the come up Bernie Sanders. It’s going to be interesting where this goes because Bernie is a pretty decent competitor from what I saw when they debated back and forth. This also shows that the other three don’t really have any shot whatsoever. http://www.nytimes.com/live/first-democratic-debate-cnn-election-2016/ http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2015/10/13/debate-democrats-clinton-sanders-las-vegas/73886464/

When I read this post, I felt as if I were sitting with you and having a informal conversation about the debate. I mean this as a compliment. Your language choice here invited me in to your way of looking at the issues and the candidates in a way that illustrates an understanding of the issues at hand and you very clear opinion about each. I enjoyed your humor and I enjoyed this post.
