Hey liberals, should these 20 questions be posed to Democrat candidates?

1) Hillary Clinton, your husband has had numerous affairs, has had sex with an intern and he settled a sexual harassment case with Paula Jones. Incidentally, there are far worse accusations than that against him that haven’t been proven. So, isn’t it fair to say that your husband is part of the war on women?

2) Hillary Clinton, in the first debate, you said you were proud to have drug companies and health insurance companies as your enemies. However, your campaign and the Clinton Foundation have received millions of dollars from both industries. Will you be giving that money back?

3) Hillary Clinton, in Bob Woodward’s book, The Choice, he noted that you communed with former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi from beyond the grave. Your husband also confirmed in a 2012 speech that you used to commune with Eleanor Roosevelt; so this isn’t something that you can credibly deny. Can you explain why you did that and what you believe you learned from talking with the dead?

4) Hillary Clinton, do you think someone who hasn’t even driven a car since 1996 is in touch enough with the average person to run the country?

5) Hillary Clinton, in the first debate, you were proud to have Republicans as enemies. Since that is your attitude, wouldn’t electing you as President guarantee non-stop partisan warfare?

6) Hillary Clinton, the constant refrain from Republicans has been that you’re not qualified to be President. Can you name your 3 biggest accomplishments that you believe qualify you to be President of the United States?

7) Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Foundation took in millions in donations from foreign governments and defense contractors, some of which you helped rather significantly when you were the Secretary of State. Your husband also collected some rather extravagant amounts in speaking fees. According to the International Business Times,

"Under Clinton's leadership, the State Department approved $165 billion worth of commercial arms sales to 20 nations whose governments have given money to the Clinton Foundation...The Clinton-led State Department also authorized $151 billion of separate Pentagon-brokered deals for 16 of the countries that donated to the Clinton Foundation....American defense contractors also donated to the Clinton Foundation while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state and in some cases made personal payments to Bill Clinton for speaking engagements. Such firms and their subsidiaries were listed as contractors in $163 billion worth of Pentagon-negotiated deals that were authorized by the Clinton State Department..."

This is unethical on its face and it raises serious questions about whether you took bribes from defense contractors and foreign governments as Secretary State. If you had it to do over, would you have done things differently?

8) Hillary Clinton, back in 2002, after reading the same intelligence reports that George Bush did, you took a position to his right on whether Saddam Hussein had WMDs. You said, “It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." Given that you made the same mistakes that George Bush did when it came to knowing whether Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, do you think it’s unfair for people to accuse him of “lying” about the evidence?

9) Hillary Clinton, you were caught lying to Americans when you claimed a video was behind the Benghazi attack. You were also caught lying when you claimed you came under sniper fire in Bosnia. You’ve also been caught lying about whether you had classified information on your private email server among other things. Why should the American people trust you after you’ve been caught lying so many times?

10) Hillary Clinton, you’re going to be 69 years old next year and you suffered a very serious head injury in 2013 after you fainted. That caused a blood clot in your brain along with a concussion your own husband said it took “six months of very serious work” to get over. Are you healthy enough to handle a job as incredibly demanding as being President of the United States? Additionally, can you assure the American public that there was no brain damage from your injury that might make it difficult for you handle the position?

11) Bernie Sanders, in a 1972 essay, you said, "A woman enjoys intercourse with her man - as she fantasizes being raped by 3 men simultaneously." Do you believe most women fantasize about being raped by 3 men simultaneously and what were you trying to get across with that comment?

12) Bernie Sanders, you have attacked Uber on multiple occasions. You’ve called it “unregulated,” you say it has “serious problems” and yet your campaign has exclusively used Uber instead of taxis because it’s cheaper. Does that make you a huge hypocrite?

13) Should a woman be able to abort a baby that can survive outside the womb? Should she be able to abort a baby the day before she’s born? At what point, if any, should an abortion become illegal?

14) Do you think men who claim to identify as women should be allowed to use the same bathroom as women? If your answer is “yes,” do you think this is unfair or even potentially dangerous to women?

15) All the candidates on the stage are strong supporters of the Affordable Care Act which was the centerpiece of Barack Obama’s agenda as President. However, the ACA was sold to the American people with a lot of untruths. Barack Obama said that if people like their plan and their doctor, they could keep them. He claimed that the ACA wouldn’t raise the deficit. He said the average family would save $2500 in premiums per year. None of these promises turned out to be true and yet, none of you have criticized the President for misleading the American people. Since that’s the case, why should anyone believe your promises?

16) There are hundreds of thousands of American citizens who have been victimized by illegal aliens who wouldn’t be here in the first place if our border were secured and our immigration laws were enforced, something nobody on this stage plans to do if elected as President. What do you say to the victims and families of the victims who’ve been raped, assaulted, or robbed by illegal aliens? What do you say to an American mother whose child has been molested, murdered or killed by a drunk-driving illegal alien?

17) How much of a problem is white privilege for America and if you do think it’s a problem, what can we do to combat it? Also, what would you say to white people who disagree with the idea that they have white privilege?

18) Do you think an illegal immigrant who takes welfare on behalf of his child should be allowed to become an American citizen? What about an adult illegal immigrant who has never paid income taxes? If the answer is “yes,” how does allowing people to become citizens who will be drains on the taxpayers help America?

19) Please raise your hands: Would anybody on the stage be willing to make the White House a gun-free zone to reduce the chance of gun violence there? If not, then does that policy really make sense for our schools?

20) Since 2008, the Democrat Party has lost 69 House seats, 13 Senate seats, 910 state legislative seats and 12 governorships. Has your party gotten so far out of the mainstream that it will make it difficult for a Democrat to be elected President in 2016?

...and just another reason why I don't trust the republican right!

Because they ask hard questions unlike the left? And you don't want to be exposed to the light? Most of the RNC politicians are not on the hard right, just so you know.

They aren't hard questions. They are the same old same old complaints I've heard from the right for years. And most of the questions are half right. In other words. If they can't even get the questions right, I have little faith they can get anything else right!

Great questions! I think ALL candidates should be asked such questions. Then we might get away from elevating those people we are convinced are moral and in authority on the silly pedestals we place them on. I remain both astonished and awed by no one bringing up Bush’s deliberate ignoring his Presidential Daily Briefing which warned “Bin Laden determined to attack U.S.” This was in August, just a month before September 11th.

Don’t you think that we ALL need to be accountable for our own wrong-headedness and moral mistakes?

Incidentally, there are far worse accusations than that against him that haven’t been proven. So, isn’t it fair to say that your husband is part of the war on women?
The war on women is about what someone wants to do policy-wise, not the behavior of one's spouse. Irrelevant.

2) Hillary Clinton, in the first debate, you said you were proud to have drug companies and health insurance companies as your enemies. However, your campaign and the Clinton Foundation have received millions of dollars from both industries. Will you be giving that money back?
A reasonable question, however, Republicans are constantly taking far more money from large corporations.

3) Hillary Clinton, in Bob Woodward’s book, The Choice, he noted that you communed with former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi from beyond the grave. Your husband also confirmed in a 2012 speech that you used to commune with Eleanor Roosevelt; so this isn’t something that you can credibly deny.

Really irrelevant.

4) Hillary Clinton, do you think someone who hasn’t even driven a car since 1996 is in touch enough with the average person to run the country?
Plenty of past presidents have been "out of touch" with ordinary Americans. Many have been extremely elitist. I don't think someone that believes the pyramids were built as granaries is someone that is "in touch" with reality enough to be president.

5) Hillary Clinton, in the first debate, you were proud to have Republicans as enemies. Since that is your attitude, wouldn’t electing you as President guarantee non-stop partisan warfare?
Like that's any different than what we have now? Obama wanted collboration. Republicans didn't want that, so she may as well stop trying till the other side decides to bargain.

6) Hillary Clinton, the constant refrain from Republicans has been that you’re not qualified to be President. Can you name your 3 biggest accomplishments that you believe qualify you to be President of the United States?
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Pot, observe kettle in Trump and Carson.

Your husband also collected some rather extravagant amounts in speaking fees. According to the International Business Times,

This is unethical on its face and it raises serious questions about whether you took bribes from defense contractors and foreign governments as Secretary State. If you had it to do over, would you have done things differently?
Good question but pales in comparison to actions by the Bush administration and most Republicans in congress.

8) Hillary Clinton, back in 2002, after reading the same intelligence reports that George Bush did, you took a position to his right on whether Saddam Hussein had WMDs. You said, “It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." Given that you made the same mistakes that George Bush did when it came to knowing whether Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, do you think it’s unfair for people to accuse him of “lying” about the evidence?
The Bush administration did overplay the evidence. The problem was too many politicians felt that an aggressive stance was the most expedient after 9-11.

9) Hillary Clinton, you were caught lying to Americans when you claimed a video was behind the Benghazi attack. You were also caught lying when you claimed you came under sniper fire in Bosnia. You’ve also been caught lying about whether you had classified information on your private email server among other things. Why should the American people trust you after you’ve been caught lying so many times?
Really? Benghazi is the best you can do?
This is such a non-scandal it's ridiculous.

10) Hillary Clinton, you’re going to be 69 years old next year and you suffered a very serious head injury in 2013 after you fainted. That caused a blood clot in your brain along with a concussion your own husband said it took “six months of very serious work” to get over. Are you healthy enough to handle a job as incredibly demanding as being President of the United States? Additionally, can you assure the American public that there was no brain damage from your injury that might make it difficult for you handle the position?
"I will not exploit my opponent's youth an inexperience for political gain." - Ronald Reagan, Age 73 campaigning for his second term.


11) Bernie Sanders, in a 1972 essay, you said, "A woman enjoys intercourse with her man - as she fantasizes being raped by 3 men simultaneously." Do you believe most women fantasize about being raped by 3 men simultaneously and what were you trying to get across with that comment?
A 43 year old oddball essay?

12) Bernie Sanders, you have attacked Uber on multiple occasions. You’ve called it “unregulated,” you say it has “serious problems” and yet your campaign has exclusively used Uber instead of taxis because it’s cheaper. Does that make you a huge hypocrite?
Huge no. But probably.

13) Should a woman be able to abort a baby that can survive outside the womb? Should she be able to abort a baby the day before she’s born? At what point, if any, should an abortion become illegal?
A reasonable question.

14) Do you think men who claim to identify as women should be allowed to use the same bathroom as women? If your answer is “yes,” do you think this is unfair or even potentially dangerous to women?
An interesting question I suppose but I don't see how you'd enforce it. What do you define as a man? Are you going to lift people's skirts as they go in the door? DNA testing?[/QUOTe]

15) All the candidates on the stage are strong supporters of the Affordable Care Act which was the centerpiece of Barack Obama’s agenda as President. However, the ACA was sold to the American people with a lot of untruths. Barack Obama said that if people like their plan and their doctor, they could keep them.

None of these promises turned out to be true and yet, none of you have criticized the President for misleading the American people. Since that’s the case, why should anyone believe your promises?
The ACA has actually worked quite well. Not perfectly, but especially in those states that expanded medicaid people are generally happy with it. So not seeing much basis for this question.

16) There are hundreds of thousands of American citizens who have been victimized by illegal aliens who wouldn’t be here in the first place if our border were secured and our immigration laws were enforced, something nobody on this stage plans to do if elected as President. What do you say to the victims and families of the victims who’ve been raped, assaulted, or robbed by illegal aliens? What do you say to an American mother whose child has been molested, murdered or killed by a drunk-driving illegal alien?
Flawed premise for the question. You can't enforce your way out of border problems. Especially when major companies are intentionally trying to bring people there.

17) How much of a problem is white privilege for America and if you do think it’s a problem, what can we do to combat it? Also, what would you say to white people who disagree with the idea that they have white privilege?
Wrong headed start to the question. It's not about "combating" white privilege it's giving everyone economic opportunity.

18) Do you think an illegal immigrant who takes welfare on behalf of his child should be allowed to become an American citizen? What about an adult illegal immigrant who has never paid income taxes? If the answer is “yes,” how does allowing people to become citizens who will be drains on the taxpayers help America?
Illegal immigrants can't get welfare.

19) Please raise your hands: Would anybody on the stage be willing to make the White House a gun-free zone to reduce the chance of gun violence there? If not, then does that policy really make sense for our schools?
What do you mean by this? Guns are carried by law enforcement there and on school grounds legally, just not by average joes.

20) Since 2008, the Democrat Party has lost 69 House seats, 13 Senate seats, 910 state legislative seats and 12 governorships. Has your party gotten so far out of the mainstream that it will make it difficult for a Democrat to be elected President in 2016?
It's called, gerrymandering. There were more votes for democrats in the house last election than for republican, yet republicans still have a majority.

I could put the question to you this way: Republicans have lost the popular vote in the last 3 presidential election cycles. Can the Republican party win a presidential race?

So raping women is not relevant policy wise? You heathen liberals are warped. Just don't question why I rejoice and will join our LORD in laughter at your calamity.

It would be a complete waste of time for me to do so. I could care less about Hillary or either side. I dislike them both, esp. the right. The right has NEVER impressed me with truth or accuracy. They are the biggest badmouthing machine on the planet. The left has never impressed me with anything either. They are both bad.

The far right has been marginalized by the liberal media for years. They are finally coming into their own these days and their anger and defensiveness that came about from the way they were generally treated is behind much of their actions today.

"He hit me, Mamma, so I am going to hit him back."

They clearly believe the end is more important than the means used to get there. This is why they freely misrepresent themselves or else do not look beyond the surface of things.

I don't blame them at all. They are truly being passed up by today's interconnected world. Their overloud loud protestations--and their dishonest tactics--only prove this fact.

Ehh, even if we accept what you say to be true, many of the current Republican candidate's statements are simply inaccurate. That has nothing to do with "coming into their own" and has everything to do with complete, intentional fabrication.

Then it should equally be a waste of your time to claim it half truths without backing the claim.

You made the claim, so you should be able to back it up.

Again. I could. But it really is a waste of time. I'm going to vote Republican this time around. I'm tired of the Democrats! Esp. OBAMA! The worse one on the Republican side is better that what we have now, and very likely better than Hillary! So don't get me wrong. I'm a true independent. I just think that politics "on both sides" misleads BOTH SIDES!

My man right now and who I think will win the nomination...

If these questions were actually asked of Democrats in a public debate, the liberal media would be howling about how "mean spirited" the moderators were.
