Who do you think will win?
i love how biden is polling so high he has like the 3rd slot if he were to declare his candidacy today
If Bernie doesn't go on some kind of attack mode on Hillary's extremely dubious career he'll come across as weak.
As per the cnn blog:
[Quote="CNN"]CNN will offer a live stream of the Democratic Presidential Primary Candidates Debate on Tuesday, October 13, from 8p to 11p ET. All users will be able to watch live CNN TV online and on their mobile devices without logging in.[/QUOTE]
So it should be available on the website homepage and the mobile app for free.

I never see Bernie in attack mode, he usually just waits for.a question and answers as need be, pretty sure he won't bring an attack mode, but that doesn't matter anyway, it's about what questions they are asked is what worries me.
I just hope this time they actually ask questions about the issues we really need to take care of domestically, like student debt or health care.
I expect Bernie to present his very leftist ideals and Hillary being unable to vocally disagree with them because she essentially believes the same thing anyway. The only real disagreements might come from foreign policy and/or trade.
This is assuming they even let them go back and forth at all.

I'm not calling for crucifixion but a solid criticism of her past.
"Corporations don't make jobs" is one that I remember vividly.
Hilary will take Bernies Ideas and claim them as her own.

... What's to be criticized about that?
Oh boy, CNN hosting. This is just going to be soft ball questions and nothing really serious. CNN can't bring hard questions to these things at all.

Corporations can be anything. Not all corporations are free market demons and not all corporations are completely amoral, and believe it or not some of them actually create jobs, like Caterpillar - a vital heavy machinery manufacturer. In the United States, a corporation is a form of doing business with shareholders liability for the corporations. Liabilities are limited to the extent of the holding of company shares. You buy a share of Apple and you own that share.
The problem resides in ones like Monsanto or McDonalds etc - they infiltrate policy to such a massive degree that trying to reduce their influence could land you in a very hostile political environment. Focusing on corporations alone is almost close minded, its how they assert influence that is the bigger issue.
Hillary gets donations from mega-corps that also donated to Jeb Bush. I'm actually glad Trump trumped Bush because at least Hillary of the right is near bottom in the polls. The whole thing is ironic because Hillary loosely accuses blanket term "corporations" without naming names or putting forth groundbreaking policy. Bernie has called for removal of superpacs and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Hillary has been silent on this.
In short, the term is - at least for Ms. Clinton - political doublespeak.

He's only going to talk about her if she talks about him, according to the stream.
Bernie is pretty debate proof since he has the most stable and honest views out of all of them. The question is; will voters agree with these views
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;48895019]Hilary will take Bernies Ideas and claim them as her own.[/QUOTE]
he can probably counter that with his consistency
I can't wait to watch the other candidates [I]Bern.[/I] Also, I hope Bernie clears his throat before speaking, he gets that weird phlegm throat every once and a while.

GET READY TO FEEL THE BERN
BERNIE HAD BETTER DO THIS

starting

Now's Bernie's first big chance to hopefully snatch a bunch of the other candidates' supporters. I hope he brings his A game!
Stream fucking up for anyone else?
Why would there be a national anthem in a debate? Is this a sport?
"Streaming live on CNN -cut-"
guess not
Yeah the stream is screwing up real bad.
god I wish they'd let a better network than CNN host this. their site can't stream for shit.
any other stream links?
If I hear Clinton calling the Republican candidates "Trump without the pizazz or the hair" one more time, I'm going to flip a shit.
"The first Democratic debate will start right after this short commercial break..."
*messages from sponsors*
"Here are the candidates and here's the national anthem. The first Democratic debate will start right after this short commercial break..."

Quit teasing me!
Stream's shit and I don't have CNN on TV, welp...
