This morning I came across this artical and I wanted to share this for discussion.

21 Questions For Donald Trump

The National Memo

 

Thursday, September 3, 2015

 

I have covered Donald Trump off and on for 27 years — including breaking the story that in 1990, when he claimed to be worth $3 billion but could not pay interest on loans coming due, his bankers put his net worth at minus $295 million. And so I have closely watched what Trump does and what government documents reveal about his conduct.

Reporters, competing Republican candidates, and voters would learn a lot about Trump if they asked for complete answers to these 21 questions.

So, Mr. Trump…

1. You call yourself an “ardent philanthropist,” but have not donated a dollar to The Donald J. Trump Foundation since 2006. You’re not even the biggest donor to the foundation, having given about $3.7 million in the previous two decades while businesses associated with Vince McMahon’s World Wrestling Entertainment gave the Trump Foundation $5 million. All the money since 2006 has come from those doing business with you.

 

How does giving away other people’s money, in what could be seen as a kickback scheme, make you a philanthropist?

2. New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman successfully sued you, alleging your Trump University was an “illegal educational institution” that charged up to $35,000 for “Trump Elite” mentorships promising personal advice from you, but you never showed up and your “special” list of lenders was photocopied from Scotsman Guide, a magazine found at any bookstore.

Why did you not show up?

3. You claimed The Learning Annex paid you a $1 million speaking fee, but on Larry King Live, you acknowledged the fee was $400,000 and the rest was the promotional value.

Since you have testified under oath that your public statements inflate the value of your assets, can voters use this as a guide, so whenever you say $1, in reality it is only 40 cents? 

4. The one-page financial statement handed out at Trump Tower when you announced your candidacy says you’ve given away $102 million worth of land.

Will you supply a list of each of these gifts, with the values you assigned to them?

5. The biggest gift you have talked about appears to be an easement at the Palos Verdes, California, golf course bearing your name on land you wanted to build houses on, but that land is subject to landslides and is now the golf course driving range.

Did you or one of your businesses take a tax deduction for this land that you could not build on and do you think anyone should get a $25 million tax deduction for a similar self-serving gift?

6. Trump Tower is not a steel girder high rise, but 58 stories of concrete.

Why did you use concrete instead of traditional steel girders?

7. Trump Tower was built by S&A Concrete, whose owners were “Fat” Tony Salerno, head of the Genovese crime family, and Paul “Big Paul” Castellano, head of the Gambinos, another well-known crime family.

If you did not know of their ownership, what does that tell voters about your management skills?

8. You later used S&A Concrete on other Manhattan buildings bearing your name.

Why?

9. In demolishing the Bonwit Teller building to make way for Trump Tower, you had no labor troubles, even though only about 15 unionists worked at the site alongside 150 Polish men, most of whom entered the country illegally, lacked hard hats, and slept on the site.

How did you manage to avoid labor troubles, like picketing and strikes, and job safety inspections while using mostly non-union labor at a union worksite — without hard hats for the Polish workers?

10. A federal judge later found you conspired to cheat both the Polish workers, who were paid less than $5 an hour cash with no benefits, and the union health and welfare fund. You testified that you did not notice the Polish workers, whom the judge noted were easy to spot because they were the only ones on the work site without hard hats.

What should voters make of your failure or inability to notice 150 men demolishing a multi-story building without hard hats?

11. You sent your top lieutenant, lawyer Harvey I. Freeman, to negotiate with Ken Shapiro, the “investment banker” for Nicky Scarfo, the especially vicious killer who was Atlantic City’s mob boss, according to federal prosecutors and the New Jersey State Commission on Investigation.

Since you emphasize your negotiating skills, why didn’t you negotiate yourself?

12. You later paid a Scarfo associate twice the value of a lot, officials determined.

Since you boast that you always negotiate the best prices, why did you pay double the value of this real estate?

13. You were the first person recommended for a casino license by the New Jersey Attorney General’s Division of Gaming Enforcement, which opposed all other applicants or was neutral. Later it came out in official proceedings that you had persuaded the state to limit its investigation of your background.

Why did you ask that the investigation into your background be limited?

14. You were the target of a 1979 bribery investigation. No charges were filed, but New Jersey law mandates denial of a license to anyone omitting any salient fact from their casino application.

Why did you omit the 1979 bribery investigation?

15. The prevailing legal case on license denials involved a woman, seeking a blackjack dealer license, who failed to disclose that as a retail store clerk she had given unauthorized discounts to friends.

In light of the standard set for low-level license holders like blackjack dealers, how did you manage to keep your casino license?

16. In 1986 you wrote a letter seeking lenient sentencing for Joseph Weichselbaum, a convicted marijuana and cocaine trafficker who lived in Trump Tower and in a case that came before your older sister, Judge Maryanne Trump Barry of U.S. District Court in Newark, New Jersey, who recused herself because Weichselbaum was the Trump casinos and Trump family helicopter consultant and pilot.

Why did you do business with Weichselbaum, both before and after his conviction?

17. Your first major deal was converting the decrepit Commodore Hotel next to Grand Central Station into a Grand Hyatt. Mayor Abe Beame, a close ally of your father Fred, gave you the first-ever property tax abatement on a New York City hotel, worth at least $400 million over 40 years.

Since you boast that you are a self-made billionaire, how do you rationalize soliciting and accepting $400 million of welfare from the taxpayers?

 

18. You say that your experience as a manager will allow you to run the federal government much better than President Obama or Hillary Clinton. On Fortune Magazine’s 1999 list of the 496 most admired companies, your casino company ranked at the bottom – worst or almost worst in management, use of assets, employee talent, long-term investment value, and social responsibility. Your casino company later went bankrupt.

Why should voters believe your claims that you are a competent manager?

19. Your Trump Plaza casino was fined $200,000 for discriminating against women and minority blackjack dealers to curry favor with gambler Robert Libutti, who lost $12 million, and who insisted he never asked that blacks and women be replaced.

Why should we believe you “love” what you call “the blacks” and the enterprise you seek to lead would not discriminate again in the future if doing so appeared to be lucrative?

 

20. Public records (cited in my book Temples of Chance) show that as your career took off, you legally reported a negative income and paid no income taxes as summarized below:

1975
Income: $76,210
Tax Paid: $18,714

1976
Income: $24,594
Tax Paid: $10,832

1977
Income: $118,530
Tax Paid: $42,386

1978
Income: ($406,379)
Tax Paid: $0

1979
Income: ($3,443,560)
Tax Paid: $0

Will you release your tax returns? And if not, why not?

21. In your first bestselling book, The Art of the Deal, you told how you had not gotten much work done on your first casino, so you had crews dig and fill holes to create a show. You said one director of your partner, Holiday Inns, asked what was going on. “This was difficult for me to answer, but fortunately this board member was more curious than he was skeptical,” you wrote.

Given your admission that you used deception to hide your failure to accomplish the work, why should we believe you now?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, September 5th 2015 at 2:37PM


Don't forget yourself Robert, if you paid taxes more than "$0" in those years. Do you believe that was fair when the Donald used the commonwealth too?

What do a lower class or hard working middle class republican worker have common with the ultra Rich?

Steve Williams Saturday, September 5th 2015 at 3:55PM

Brother Deacon, it's our elected politicians that make it possible. Those years were under Carter remember. Nothing has changed under Obama.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, September 5th 2015 at 4:45PM

What do you think about these 21 questions of the Donald?

Steve Williams Sunday, September 6th 2015 at 12:11AM

Questions 18 and 19 are missing.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Sunday, September 6th 2015 at 12:19PM

NO, 75-76 were OK under Republican President and Congress

76-80 ---- carter VS Republican Congress Produced Economic Theft and MISERY.............for many

80-88-92---- REAGAN with Republican Congressional help tended to dismantle EqualRights legislation so that the middleClass workers, Entrepreneurs and Businessmen could DO BETTER, Make America Great Again

and my Joy was when REAGAN said passed tax laws that any American to take DEDUCTIONS for Their own religious interests, schools and movements............

I even met the Donald a couple of times in the Reagan Years............

Steve Williams Monday, September 7th 2015 at 8:34AM

Nunber 18 is a good question. Being a billionaire doesn't qualify one for leading this country. Just because he knows money doesn't say anything about whether his monetary policy would be any good. On that issue I haven't heard anything from Trump. Of course Obama doesn't know anything about monetary policy either.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, September 7th 2015 at 9:37PM

Obama, brought this country back from the BUSH republican controlled administration greatest recession since the great depression. Jobless rate 5.2% people are back working again despite all of work that the republicans did to try and hold Obama back, which they failed to make him a one term president.

Anybody who say's America is a great nation and fights against labor is a fool. Good Labor day to you Brother Steve.





Steve Williams Monday, September 7th 2015 at 11:28PM

Ron Paul could have won over Obama if the Republican party hadn't sidelined him.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 8:40AM

WHAT!!! Ron Paul was sidelined by the Republican party, why was that Steve?

Steve Williams Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 1:12PM

Robert, you have a short-sighted view of civil rights.

Steve Williams Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 1:13PM

Near-blind in fact.

Steve Williams Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 1:15PM

Brother Deacon, have you read any of Ron Paul's books?

This Much Is True: You Have Been Lied To.






The government is expanding.
Taxes are increasing.
More senseless wars are being planned.
Inflation is ballooning.
Our basic freedoms are disappearing.

The Founding Fathers didn't want any of this. In fact, they said so quite clearly in the Constitution of the United States of America. Unfortunately, that beautiful, ingenious, and revolutionary document is being ignored more and more in Washington . If we are to enjoy peace, freedom, and prosperity once again, we absolutely must return to the principles upon which Americawas founded. But finally, there is hope . . .

In THE REVOLUTION, Texas congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul has exposed the core truths behind everything threatening America , from the real reasons behind the collapse of the dollar and the looming financial crisis, to terrorism and the loss of our precious civil liberties. In this book, Ron Paul provides answers to questions that few even dare to ask.

Despite a media blackout, this septuagenarian physician-turned-congressman sparked a movement that has attracted a legion of young, dedicated, enthusiastic supporters . . . a phenomenon that has amazed veteran political observers and made more than one political rival envious. Candidates across America are already running as "Ron Paul Republicans."

"Dr. Paul cured my apathy," says a popular campaign sign. THE REVOLUTION may cure yours as well.
Review
"The real truth about Liberty. This book takes a wrecking ball to the political establishment. Senator Goldwater would have loved it -- it's The Conscience of a Conservative for the 21 st century."― Barry M. Goldwater, Jr., former member of Congress
About the Author
Ron Paul, an eleven-term congressman from Texas , is the leading advocate of freedom in our nation's capital. He has devoted his political career to the defense of individual liberty, sound money, and a non-interventionist foreign policy. Judge Andrew Napolitano calls him "the Thomas Jefferson of our day."

After serving as a flight surgeon in the U.S. Air Force in the 1960s, Dr. Paul moved toTexas to begin a civilian medical practice, delivering over four thousand babies in his career as an obstetrician. He served in Congress from 1976 to 1984, and again from 1996 to the present. He and Carol Paul, his wife of fifty-one years, have five children, eighteen grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.

Ron Paul, the New York Post once wrote, is a politician who "cannot be bought by special interests."

Taxes is going up for the lower and middle class while taxes are dropping at a breakneck speed for the ultra rich in this country. If Ron Paul got the right way to go, why don't he run for President?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 3:46PM

Taxes is going up for the lower and middle class while taxes are dropping at a breakneck speed for the ultra rich in this country. If Ron Paul got the right way to go, why don't he run for President?

With that said: let us get back to the 21 questions for the Donald, can you do that?

Steve Williams Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 4:25PM

I've addressed those questions Brother Deacon.

Steve Williams Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 6:28PM

Obama's boy is moving up.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, September 8th 2015 at 6:43PM

So, Steve, outside of question 18, you are satisfied with the Donald history dealing with known gangsters, his idea not to pay the prevailing wage on his construction's, the way he treats his workers, all that is OK with you as a possible presidential candidate?


Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 1:09AM

These questions are meaningless. Because of the two party system we won't ever get a President more qualified than Barack Obama or Donald Trump.

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 1:25AM

And that's why 2/3 of Americans don't vote.

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 1:40AM

We've seen so much excitement from Democrats about this, Stephen -- so we've made an official decision:

We're giving you one more chance to meet the President in New York City!

This means you still have time to get your name in the hat for free flights and hotel accommodations for you and a guest to meet President Obama at our glamorous LGBT Gala later this month.

I can't keep the door open for too much longer though, Stephen, so pitch in $3 or whatever you can today to be automatically entered to meet the President in New York (before it's too late).

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 12:45PM

Steve!!!

Do you hear yourself!!!! These questions are about Donald Tramp and he not a president. Put that pot out and think man!

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 1:13PM

I've already decided I'm not voting for Trump, for the same reasons I didn't vote for Obama, because he lacks substance. So the 21 questions, for me, are not the right questions.

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 1:24PM

Someone like Bernie Sanders has substance. Do you have 21 questions for Bernie Sanders, Brother Deacon?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 2:22PM

I see that we are on the same page now. Bernies campaign is gaining momentum across the nation and he has been on the right path since the days of the civil rights era. I will have more to say about Bernie Sanders as time permits.

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 5:25PM

I always have liked Bernie Sanders, not least because he was an Independent. I wonder what happened?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 5:39PM

Bernie, saw the light of the Democratic Party being for the people and not for the corporations.





Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 10:20PM

Has anyone asked Bernie why he did it?

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 10:32PM

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) is skeptical of Bernie Sanders’ hunt for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016.

Weiner wonders why the Independent Vermont senator plans on switching his party affiliation next election cycle, according to a Business Insider op-ed published Saturday.

Weiner charged that Sanders has never expressed a desire to become a Democrat before entering the 2016 race.

“He was a proud socialist and thought the institutional Democratic Party was too cautious and lacking in imagination,” he said of his time in Congress with Sanders.

“As much as I prodded, I would never get him to think about joining the Democrats for a moment.”

Weiner noted that Sanders’ reluctance to go Democrat earlier leaves the party’s voters with unanswered questions about his motivations.

“What exactly does he think he’s doing in a Democratic presidential primary?” Weiner asked. “Why is he asking for the nomination of a party he always avoided joining?”

“After a career of steadfastly insisting that the Democratic Party was not his home, now he wants to be not only a member of the party but its standard bearer?” he asked. “What changed?”

Weiner also speculated Sanders’ newfound interest in the party may be a strategy for improving his chances in next year’s presidential election.

“Is Bernie’s newfound party affiliation just a practical decision to run in a party that can win rather than risk being a Nader-esque spoiler in a third party line next November?” Weiner asked.

“That’s a fair calculation, but doesn’t it wipe away Bernie’s three decades of standing as a principled socialist?”

Weiner did acknowledge that he believes “Bernie is right about a lot of things.”

“He is right that a Medicare for All healthcare plan is a simpler, cheaper and more American solution to our healthcare needs than a jury-rigged system that is better under ObamaCare but still has too many gaps,” he said.

“And his battle cry on behalf of working Americans is almost as good as Hillary Clinton’s,” he said of Clinton, the Democratic presidential favorite, also his wife Huma Abedin’s employer.

“In spite of all this, if Bernie wants to lead this party, he needs to explain what he’s doing here in the first place,” Weiner added.

Weiner also said he believes Sanders addresses a desire for progressive ideas within the Democratic electorate.

“There’s no question Bernie’s leftist agitating is filling a void in this primary process,” he said.

“The Democratic Party has a strong primal scream element right now,” Weiner said. “It expresses itself in frustration that the high expectations of change that came with President Obama have not been met.”

“It howls at the failure of candidates who hew to the middle of the road and it feels the need to counter the bat**** crazy it sees dominating the debate on the other side of the aisle,” he added.

Ted Cruz: Bernie Sanders Is the Only Democrat Standing Up to Corporate Cronyism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6o6VJd4S8...

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 9th 2015 at 10:54PM

“You don’t change the system from within the Democratic Party.”
“My own feeling is that the Democratic Party is ideologically bankrupt.”
“We have to ask ourselves, ‘Why should we work within the Democratic Party if we don’t agree with anything the Democratic Party says?’”
Bernie Sanders, everybody—the same Bernie Sanders who is running to become the Democratic Party’s candidate for president of the United States.
The most surprising thing about the independent Vermont senator’s surprisingly successful campaign so far is not that he’s doing it as a self-described democratic socialist. It’s that he’s seeking the nomination of a party he caucuses with in the Senate but is not a part of, isn’t a registered member of and has never been a registered member of—a party he’s spent his 40-year career beating at the polls and battering in the press.
He started as a politician in the 1970s as a perennial protest candidate with the anti-Vietnam War Liberty Union Party, offering voters an alternative to the two major parties, which he considered ineffective and equally beholden to corporate lords.
To become mayor of Burlington in 1981, he ousted a veteran centrist Democrat. To build power, his progressive allies in subsequent elections wrested away city council seats, relegating local Democrats to diminished, third-party status. In a series of statewide races in the late ’80s and into the early ’90s, he outdid even that—getting Democrats to all but wave a white flag when he ran.
He has never before chosen to run in a Democratic primary, but here he is, challenging Hillary Clinton—and doing it as an independent, technically permissible but highly unusual. How he’s trying to do this is how he always has—a calculated alchemy of outsider edge and insider smarts, provocation plus pragmatism, all learned and honed over what’s become a unique career in modern American politics.
“He plays it both ways,” said former Vermont Governor Madeleine Kunin, a Democrat who once successfully fended off Sanders from the left in a reelection bid. “He wants to be different, and yet he wants to belong—for political purposes.”
Sanders is nipping at Clinton in the polls, for now—but anybody who wants to, like Clinton, her campaign or its associated machinery, can fill fat files with quotes from Sanders in which he denigrates the Democratic Party whose mantle of legitimacy gives him a stature that unaffiliated candidates rarely enjoy.
“Clearly, it’s something he should answer for,” Democratic former Congressman Barney Frank said.
In an interview with Politico on the Senate subway, Sanders didn’t walk away from his criticism of Democrats—although he insisted he has developed over his long career a strong relationship with the party in Vermont, in Washington and the nation. Asked whether he still believed the party is “ideologically bankrupt,” Sanders answered by not answering the question.
“I think what we have today is, I think, a Republican Party which has moved from a center-right party over the last decades to a right-wing extremist party,” he said, the subway whooshing him from the Capitol to his office. “I think you have a Democratic Party which is not as strong as it should be in standing up for the working class of this country and taking on big-money interests. And that’s been my view for a long time.”
Sanders shut down follow-ups.
“That’s about it,” he said.
***
For Sanders in the ’70s, Liberty Union wasn’t a chance to win—it was an opportunity to talk. And he talked a lot. He said to a reporter for United Press International that both major parties were “cowardly.” In an interview with the Valley Voice of Middlebury, Vermont, he said “there essentially is no difference” between them.
In ’81, when he was elected mayor of Burlington—by 10 votes, after a recount—the city’s Democrats tried to stonewall Sanders.
He had “an enormously contentious relationship” with them, said Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.), then a state senator.
“Back in those days,” said Maurice Mahoney, the head of the Democratic Party in Burlington in the ’80s, “his goal was to destroy Democrats—certainly on the local level.”
“It was a Democratic town that he basically took from them,” said Bill Conroy, who wrote a dissertation on Sanders’ tenure as mayor.
Said Hamilton Davis, a longtime Vermont reporter and Sanders watcher: “They hated him, and he hated them—unreservedly.”
As the so-called “Sanderistas” who made up a left-wing coalition won more council seats in subsequent elections, the city’s Democrats were forced to change their posture. They had to work with him. “The animosity slowed way down,” said Paul Lafayette, a Democrat on the council. Tensions cooled, somewhat—but not the heat of Sanders’ rhetoric.
“One can argue that the two-party system is a sham,” he said in a talk at Iowa State University during an event called Socialist Week.
“I am not now, nor have I ever been, a liberal Democrat,” he said in a profile in New England Monthly.
He said that in ’85.

Tell that to this libertarian called Rand Paul who ran to the republican party to try to hy-jack and turn it around, you know that party of Bozo's in his failed attempt, not getting but 4 to 5 percent in the recent polls.

Now I agree with Bernie when he said: "I think what we have today is, I think, a Republican Party which has moved from a center-right party over the last decades to a right-wing extremist party,” he said, the subway whooshing him from the Capitol to his office. “I think you have a Democratic Party which is not as strong as it should be in standing up for the working class of this country and taking on big-money interests. And that’s been my view for a long time.”

Do you think that the republican Part best express your views? if so, why?




Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 2:58PM

Brother Deacon, the American voter thinks to themself, "who least represents me?". Then they vote for the other guy or don't vote at all.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 3:03PM

Jill Stein is running again. I voted for her in 2012 and don't see any reason not to in 2016.

Jill Stein a Green Party of The United States for President. This is the first time I have heard about Jill, I will look her up outside of her website.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 5:08PM

I recommend the video at Democracy Now! linked above.

Dear Steve --

I’d like to thank you for volunteering for Jill Stein’s presidential campaign. The response so far has been tremendous!

In fact, there’s so much excitement about Jill’s campaign that the flood of hundreds of people signing up to volunteer is beyond the limited capacity of our staff to respond right now. We're looking forward to getting you involved as soon as we’re able.

For now, here is an important way you can help Jill’s campaign: by donating your social media account to help spread Jill’s message.

Donate Your Account lets you donate your facebook and/or twitter account so that the Jill Stein campaign can automatically republish (retweet or share) social media messages from Jill.

When Jill has big news, this helps her to get the word out to as many people as possible.

Retweets or shares can be set up for once a week, or as much as once per day - it’s up to you.

Of course, you can decide to cancel any time you want to.

Will you help Jill Stein's message reach as many people as possible by donating your social media accounts today?

Thanks again, and we’ll be in touch soon to let you know other ways you can help.

That's great Steve because it looked like you was going to fall for that loser Rand Paul and be a follower of that libertarian mess.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 7:51PM

The Democrats will do everything they can this election to shut the Green Party down. Hillary, Bernie, and Barack have all co-opted a page from Jill Stein's 2012 platform, free college exucation.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 7:55PM

Have you seen the video Brother Deacon?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 8:00PM

Don't you think that anyone of them have a better chance in making that plan come true than any republican or a libertarian?

Steve Williams Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 9:50PM

The most important thing America needs is to break the two-party stranglehold.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Thursday, September 10th 2015 at 10:15PM

It will not happen in this election. Just look at the clown car on the right.

It won't happen in any election if we don't start somewhere. This election and every election are opportunities to progress toward that goal.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Friday, September 11th 2015 at 7:32AM

On that note, KEEP HOPE ALIVE!!!

Good Luck to Dr. Jill Stein because she is sound much like Bernie Sanders.

Stephen --

I just made it to Simi Valley, California for tonight's GOP debate and, like so many folks here, I couldn't be more excited for these Republicans to get up on that stage and tell us what they really feel. I mean, I can say so much about how bad their policies are, but there's nothing more convincing than hearing it straight from the horse's mouth.

So I hope you'll tune in tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET, Stephen. RSVP here and say you'll watch:

I think this debate is going to be pretty eye opening. You just know they'll say some outrageous things that will let the American people know exactly where they stand on the issues, and nothing's more important than that.

You don't want to miss this, Stephen. Trust me.

Debbie

Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Chair
Democratic National Committee

P.S. -- Since you'll be watching at home, make sure to sign up to play GOP Bingo and see which candidates are the first to say the most predictable things.

Steve Williams Wednesday, September 16th 2015 at 1:32PM

I think I'll wait for DNC bingo.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Wednesday, September 16th 2015 at 4:33PM

The one major thing The Donald got going for him is racism against Mexicans, that is what shot his poll numbers up. Watch The Donald and the rest of the clown car.



Steve Williams Wednesday, September 16th 2015 at 6:59PM

40 minutes into the first debate and all they've talked about is Donald Trump and Radical Islamic Terrorism. Now they're talking about Kim Davis. LOL.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Thursday, September 17th 2015 at 7:59AM

Just what I thought, the republican clown car show continues with The Donald at the wheel. Who won that one? GO Carla...

Who made it clownish was CNN.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 17th 2015 at 8:11AM

Then Fox was the first to complain about the 4/11 debate split. This is what passes for political "process" in 2015.

Steve Williams Thursday, September 17th 2015 at 8:44AM

You must not use a smartphone Robert.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Thursday, September 17th 2015 at 11:52AM

Robert,

Don't play those racial BS games and name calling with me. By using what you call backbone, I can attmit that I made an error using my cell phone but your child like, Immaturity and irrational response demonstrates you have none. Now it is your decision to repost to what I call, your right to the point and clear comments is up to you or not, your choice.
