Bernie is being railroaded again. I will not call Hillary anything bad. But, I don't like her.

She oversteps and uses dirty tricks.

This debate is kinda hard to watch.

Bernie is a good hearted person who should be the nominee.

I just hope the crowds at the rallies, and the supporters at this debate will go out and vote for him.

I also think they should show the 'time limit' clocks on the front of their podiums so everyone can see when they talk over their limit.

And, when they do go over their limit, I think they should SHUT OFF THEIR MICROPHONE.

Hillary will never get my vote.

in the second term. It was Kerry who led on the US/China Pact and then got other agreements at the Lima summit. It was people like Ban Ki Moon, Fabius and Kerry who got those 160 or so countries to agree.

Secretary Clinton was there for the failure that was Copenhagen.

It amazes me that she failed to even mention Kerry ... but no surprise as in an earlier debate after a long word salad on what SHE did on the Iran deal, she credited Kerry with finalizing the deal!

It's like anything good that happened in the second term was hers. What's next, in her readjusting what she and Kerry did -- will she claim that Kerry stupidly set up that email server in HER basement.

He said the U.S. is paying 75% of the military budget of NATO while countries like France and the UK provide free healthcare, free or low cost college education, etc.; they should be able to pay more for their defense.

127. Wolf just asked Bernie didn't Israel have a right to defend itself "as it sees fit"?

Are you friggin' kidding me? As it sees fit? In other words, whatever it does, that's OK because they saw fit to do it?

Time to stop. HRC can's see evolution of need for NATO and Europes ability to now contribute more. We are hurting ourselves. Times change - B = change that HRC doesn't even understand.

They called her in Cambodia. Nice name drop.

She was trying to pretend she just gave Obama advice on Libya and he made his decision.

But then she went all in on Syria, NATO and Israel and let her war monger colors show.
