They're talking about immigration reform right now

What immigration reform...It's all about demographics and getting votes to keep the electorate in the Dems favor.

I mean it's true for the GOP as well but not to as big of a degree as the Democrats.

Can someone give me a quick rundown of Citizens United?

Decision that election campaigns can accept unlimited money from corporations. Terrible decision, but its strange Sanders is acting like reversing it will be the biggest revolution. Before the decision lobbyists and corporations still had a ton of power in government.

Clinton said she's seriously consider Sanders as VP! And vice versa

Lies...she'll pick Julian Castro to combat Marco Rubio.

Rubio would win the nomination?

Oh I see. Republicans like it?

This was an INTENSE debate... But I am so happy and proud to see these two candidates actually openly respect each other and it makes the difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party jarring. This debate made me like Bernie a bit more. But, I'm still Hillary all the way. I was beyond thrilled to see that they both agreed that they would work together should they won the nomination.

Not quite. If my understanding is correct, it establishes corporations as legal persons or entities for purposes of campaign donations. They can't donate unlimited money to campaigns, but they can donate unlimited money to super PACs. I could be wrong about this, however.

Life imprisonment, at least in Canada will cost $20,000+ per prisoner out of the tax payers' money. I don't think she's justifiably wrong on this one

Is it me or did Bernie seemed a bit defeated with his closing statement? He didn't deliver populist speech with the vigor and passion we're use to seeing.

[D_Man3379]

Great closing by both.

Its also important to note the decision was made in 2010. Obviously everything in the political system wasn't dandy before then.

[Radiance]

Tbf, Clinton-Sanders would be a very strong ticket. Combining Sander's power over the youth and Clinton's swing on moderates, independents and the like.

OMG the best reply in this thread! You are amazing! Buying a copy of ANTi now just because of ur comment. Anyhow, I can't see how people can deny that immigration is a massive problem now. Like, half my customers try to talk to me in Spanish and when I respond to them in English, they look at me like I'm the idiot. Like, we live in America! YOU should ADAPT to OUR LANGUAGE, not the other way around.

Really great debate, glad they got to have that super cute moment together at the end.

Hillary is slowly but surely winning me over.

Yes youre right, but its semantics. Technically corporations aren't donating to campaigns, but Super PACS are for campaign funds obviously.

Oh he is going to... he is the Republican Obama. Young and full of hope n change...a nice contrast between the Grandma and Grandpa the Dems have.

Love that they have unity with each other

That's a lot. But it's actually more expensive on the death penalty with legal fees, different cases, appeals, etc. Its more in America at least


Anyways that was the best debate in years. Truly they are two of the best candidates to run. I do want a joint ticket (and hopefully Clinton on top)

I won't put my thoughts down on who won to keep the peace lol but the media may say both won. Unfortunately for Clinton that isn't enough. She failed to stop Sanders' momentum. He'll win now
