Beto has such a strange cadence when he speaks. It's like he's trying to speak in odd time signatures.

it almost reminds me of obama

Hickenlooper is so bad.

These moderators keep explicitly pitting the other candidates against Sanders to make drama for ratings I'm with Cindi, though, it's annoying

he's the Big Dawg in the debate, when you're at the top of the pyramid everyone tries to come at you

they're coming at her too, but she's trying to stay out of the cross hairs for the most part. She pops in and smack them around very strategically. It does seem like the moderators are giving Bernie more time than her, I guess the final tally will tell.

It seems like they are giving Delaney a disproportional amount of time.

CNN's moderation is somehow making MSNBC look good

They're trying to kill Bernie and make him expose his platform as to say,"do you really want this man as president?" It's so blatant.

Don't give a fuck about international intellectual property when the domestic area for intellectual property is so fucked up. Fix your shit at home first.

[Tripon]

Usually, the media tries to make the women candidates to be 'shrill'. They're trying to make a BERNIE MAD clip. I think Bernie is realizing it though and trying to answer questions more calmly.

Edit: Also, if they ask this question about Climate Change and frame it with displaced workers in tomorrow's debate, somebody like Yang might actually have something to say.

why is reparations framed for slavery anyways? Most modern black reparations supporters argue it from the viewpoint of slavery + jim crow + government oppression. The amount of obstacles created by the united states towards black people is simply unparalleled in the country aside from natives. But natives have received reparations. Japanese had reparations. Jews had reparations for the holocaust and the holocaust didn't even happen on our shores. Reparations is about systemic, generational oppression. COINTELPRO, segregation, lynchings, green books. Shit, slavery is the cherry on top.

So why are they asking about reparations for slavery? Nah.

edit: I know why and that's to discredit it, as it's a right wing talking point, but that still doesn't answer "why".

Delaney: I'm the only candidate on the stage who is in favor of the deeply unpopular TPP!

I think it's to push a racial angle that incites pushback ensuring nothing happens in the end.
I agree on the more 1900s angle. Stuff like the post-WW2 denial of benefits to black veterans and CIA shenanigans destabilizing black communities seems like the bigger player in my mind. It's seems harder to dispute otherwise you go down the rabbit hole of who actually qualifies to receive money.

"Senator Sanders, why do 73% of black people disagree with you?"

Cause they are uneducated #feelthebern

Just redlining alone, and not offering loans that majority black communities lived while allowing white families to move onto their own property is enough to offer compensation.

Right? I hate when conservatives say,"why should i pay for something that I didn't do?" well, many people who supported segregation are still alive. Some black WWII vets are alive, black people that grew up during segregation are still are alive. Shit, some areas were segregated well into the fucking 70's. My mother, father, and grandmother are all alive and each grew up going to segregated schools. But it's only about slavery? The country never even formally apologized. Every other group has received justice in fiscal form. Why not black people? Oh, I know why. The question is simply rhetorical.

they are legit giving Delaney more time than Sanders and Warren

Games Workshop changed the name because they couldn't slather Imperial Guard in intellectual property rights claims.

They'll bring up the split screen before they've even asked the other person to respond. They're trying to start fights for ratings.

I don't get asking the SAME EXACT QUESTION to all the people on the debate stage. It makes sense when it's 2 or hell, even 5 to 6 people. There's 10 people on the stage, ask varied questions so you can get varied answers.

Bullock sounds drunk

[thisismyusername]

Do we seriously need these debates?

Sanders, Warren, and Biden are the final three front-runners. Butt-chug, Beto O'Tool, and Kopmala are polling as low (if not lower) than the Orb and Yang Gang, that there's no reason to host these "two day" debates beyond being fair (something they weren't to Sanders last time around).

Just slap all the under 5%'ers like Butt-chug and say "no, stop, end your campaign, you're going nowhere." Save yourselves some goddamn time, CNN and DNC.
