2nd Democrat Party Primary Debate (HRClinton, Bernie Sanders, Martin O'Malley)

2nd Democrat Debate (2015 Primary race)   9pmET November 14 {HRClinton, B.Sanders, O’Malley}
NOTE details:  we will write the topics of discussion and anything we learn that is ‘notable’.
We are not sure why we are watching this except to tell you.  Can we take it for two hours?
Rush says B.Sanders won’t be allowed to win, and O’Malley is just there to provide an opponent.

Openings: Sanders is shocked w/ISIS; H.Rodham Bring the world together; O’Malley My heart goes out.

Terror Attacks
HRC:  We have special operators;  I’ll be the Commander-In-Chief; the world will do it, diplomatically.
O’Malley: I disagree;  we must rise with human intelligence.
Sanders:   Climate Change is a bigger threat, leading to ISIS.

Sanders:  Regime change has unintended consequences.  O’Malley: Cascading effect of HRClinton.
HRClinton:  Assad has hung on—it is complicated.  [She is talking with her hands, trying to impress.]
Sanders: Those Muslim nations have to get their boots on the ground—we can support them.

Libya
HRClinton:  We did have a plan.  [Still talking forcibly with her hands, but want is she saying?]
O’Malley:  We need to act intelligently and the area is a mess. A Mom said, “My son is not a boot on the ground.”
Sanders:  500,000 came home with post-war-syndrome—they fought for us, we should fight for them.

Sanders wants fewer nuclear and modern weapons (brings up his own topic)

Syria Refugees:
O’Malley:  I was the first to support accepting the 65,000.
HRClinton:  Screen the 65,000;  Russia showed a video shot of secret drone plans.

{The first commercial ad is an R-rated movie ad; anti-Walmart union ad; five more.}

Who pays for [freebees]?
HRC:  Certainly not the middle class;  get jobs going again. Read details on my website.
“We will have to re-do the way the pharmaceutical companies do business.”
O’Malley:  We raised sales tax a penny and made our public schools the best in America.  Climate Change.  Lower capital gains tax.   We can work towards free colleges.
Sanders:  The redistribution has trillions going to the top tenth of 1%.  Eisenhower had 90% tax.

Healthcare costs/Obamacare:  
HRC:  A great achievement of Democrats.  Let’s build on the Affordable Care Act (for everyone).
Sanders:  I am on the committee that wrote the Affordable Care Act;  [attack] pharmaceutical.  Universal healthcare is a right, not a privilege.

O’Malley jumps in and insists on talking over the moderator;  however, “Senator, you are breaking the rules and we have to break for a commercial.”  Six ads, ending with a clip of xxx saying he can work with the president, “Sure!”

Comprehensive Amnesty on condition of Borders:
O’Malley:  Donald Trump is a carnival-barker   [cheers]  We had zero immigration from Mexico.
HRClinton:  The president has appealed to the Supreme Court:  he has the authority.  Dreamers.
Sanders:  At the end of the day, millions work two jobs because the Minimum Wage is too low.

O’Malley jumps in to say they raised the minimum wage to $10 and it created jobs and economic growth.   Sanders demands to jump in to say San Francisco and other are doing it.  Hillary supports
$12 minimum  (still talking with her hands, so annoying.) O’Malley argues back. They are talking over each other, and you get the Hillary cackle as the moderator goes to commercial break, again. 

Wall Street Money:
HRC:  People know that I will level the playing field.  Look what I did in the Senate.
Sanders:  Not good enough.  Let’s not be naïve. Break of the Big Six banks w/50% of the money.
Sanders:  They make millions in contributions and expect to get something.
HRC demands to jump in to defend her integrity: the majority are women.  On 9/11 I worked to rebuild NYC and Wall Street.  I go after all of Wall Street and not just Wall Street.
Sanders:  It is a corrupt campaign finance system; show by example. 
O’Malley:  We need new thinking on economics in the Whitehouse.  HRC is ‘weak team’.
[They are attacking each other and talking about Glass Steagall and banks destroying us.]

Sanders:  Who are we kidding?  The banks played by the rules.  Who made the rules?

Guns:
HRC:  Well, I think there are different records;  Sanders made a terrible mistake.   200 children have been killed.  This is an emergency. 
Sanders:  We need mental health checks. 
O’Malley:  Secretary Clinton, you’ve been on three sides of this, like Annie Oakley.  [She laughs.]
Sanders: People are shouting at each other, not you Mrs Clinton.  We need to come together.

Twitter  “What does helping on 9/11 have to do with taking large donations?”   Bla-bla-Blah.

HRC:  Paul Krugman is on my side.  I don’t think a new Glass-Steagall is enough.
O’Malley:  Go on my website and donate to support real campaign finance reform. 
ED NOTE:  All three are talking with their hands, with wild gestures, fun to watch.  (Ads).

How do you deal with the Republican revolution?
Sanders:  Make the wealthy pay their share;  Minimum wage is popular;  bring people together.
We have large rallies and are defeating the secretary with the young people.
[Ed:  When pressed, he says he is still tired of HRClinton’s eMail; and we get her human chuckle.]
HRC:  We need more to vote and Republicans are preventing people from voting.

FBI Investigations:    HRC:  After 11 hours that is clear [cleared up] Get back to issues.
HRC:  All of us believe in Climate Change and funding Planned Parenthood. [Fight Republicans.}

Police Officers: 
O’Malley:  I put forth a new agenda.   I attend more grave sides.  Yes, Black Lives Matter.

Young and Black:
Sanders:  We spend $80billion, disproportionately Black and Hispanic. Let states legalize marijuana.
HRClinton:  I came from the 60s and activism.  I appreciate youth standing up, respect each other.
A White man pulled out a gun and shot a Mother and daughter over their loud radio.

Free Tuition:
Sanders:  An extraordinary investment for this country.  The debt is too large; if they study hard, with no regard to the resources of their families.  States are running deficits but will do the right thing. 
O’Malley:  I actually did this, the only state.  Etc.  Make a new block-grant; lower loan rate.
HRClinton insists on jumping in, even thought she was the only one who hadn’t spoken.  We don’t need to pay for Donald Trump’s kids to go to college.

Obamacare: 
Sanders:  It won’t happen tomorrow, but at the end of the day [universal socialism] Single Payer.
HRC:  The revolution never came.  We have the great accomplishment [Obamacare].  I would not want Sander’s plan to have the state support everything put together.
Sanders: We expand Medicare to all people;  SC is Rightwing and denies people.

O’Malley wants to add his two-cents worth but is denied because of a commercial break, “Sorry.”

 What Crisis shows you lead:
HRC:  There have been so many (laughter)  Advising Obama to go after Ben Lauden.    In the end, I advised doing what we could to go after him.  I had to keep it a secret.
O’Malley:  I don’t think there is a crisis in my position that rises to that level.  But I can protect.
You learn to build feedback;  I have lead and governed people in a crisis.
Sanders:  I was on the Committee over Veteran Hospitals, determined to do everything I could.

Closing statements:
O’Malley:  No amount is too small to donate to my campaign. We are at the threshold.
Sec.Clinton:  Heard a lot about me; I’ll think about you.  Children.  Even the odds.  Caucus for me.

Sanders:  This country has the wealth; no healthcare; childhood poverty. Bring political revolution.

Reading through these NOTES saves you time/energy and gives you the important directions: Hillary, doubling down on STUPID but thinking no one will notice; Bernie thinking that Global Warming is the winning ticket for him; and O'Malley as the also ran.

If you are very interested, we recommend you Google-search for a transcript.

We enjoyed the annotations and word-searching under the W-Post transcript.

Any one of the top four Republican candidates could beat Hillary Rhodam C.
or the Black-horse candidate when she is forced out, tossed under the bus.

As soon as Barack Hussein O. came along, they tossed her off;
and it could be the same as Hillary is judge guilty in the public opinion jury.

Further, if Trump steps aside for a Cruz-Carson ticket, it would beat Democrats.

George Washington, (Leader) said...

Why is Donald Trump so popular, you ask?

He rose to the hightest levels of popularity by saying we can and must protect the United States of America as a nation with a wall on the southern border. Now, he says we must attack the leaders of Jihad and hold on bringing Syrian refugees into America. These are the two most critical issues with American voters.

Further, he has the practical experience to bring back the American economy, and "Make America great again." Whomever criticizes his comments, loses my support.

Constrast that with the Democrat Party bench: they have but one viable candidate who is aging and disasterous. A Republican will win easily unless elitists in the Republican Party insist on standing with Big Government and Obama.

O'Malley, Bernie Sanders, and Hillary Rhodam C. all need to read the Constitution and the writing in the Federalist Papers. Where have they been? On Mars?

Ben Franklin, inventor said...

Where are other Founding Fathers (and Mothers) to comment?
They need documentation on how to get their gMail account .!.

Thomas Jefferson, 1776 Patriot said...

I have mine. What is so difficult? There are various ways
to do the same thing, such as sign in. Remember that Google
has gMail and also the blogspots from Blogger, so you can
sign in with your gMail account, to be recognized in this blogspot
but you need to enter your ID/pw here anyway, and then there are
two ways to comment, 1.directly; or 2. in a new chrome window.
