Both debates had the same questions. Which makes me wonder what the point of two debates was. I guess Fox News needed the viewers. The first round of candidates had valid points.  However, they, as the prime time candidates did, contradicted themselves constantly for an hour. The first question was about the executive orders and powers which President Obama has used in the last six years. They all agreed that some if not all orders need to be re-examined.  I personally don’t think any president should have the power to put anything in place without the American People voting. 

This brings me to the Iran Nuclear Deal. I have to admit that we need something in place to help protect Israel from blown to hell by Iran, whom has expressed the desire to do so. I don’t know any more about the deal than the candidates do apparently. But I know giving a country that hates us money to funnel to terrorist, who also hate us, is a stupid ideal under any circumstance. Also we have very limited access to the nuclear facilities for inspection at any time by the International Nuclear Committee. No I Say... What the State Secretary John Kerry did was sell us out along with Israel.  Granted Israel could very easily put their Nuclear Scientist on the International Nuclear Committee. And they should.  The candidates made clear that they would tear up the deal and start over. At one point Former Governor Rick Perry admitted he would rather have Carly Fiorina negating with Iran as opposed to John Kerry. 

The next executive order they would do away with is the Same Sex Marriage act that just got passed by the Supreme Court. Excuse me. It was my understanding that when the Supreme Court signs a bill it becomes law. Which you need a divine intervention to overturn the bill. But no, these jerks want to tear it up and deny same sex couples the same right which is guaranteed to straight couples by the constitution. First of all, as long as a couple have a healthy relationship and they want to be married, let them me married.  After all the constitution was written to provide everyone the same rights regardless of their domestic situation.  Look we have children in this country who don’t know where their next meal will come from or if there will be a next meal. Also we have people who are homeless. And same sex marriage is what the candidates want to focus on.  We have no shortage of Golf courses and homeless population. Do the math.

The war on women continues with the threat of defunding Planned Parenthood deal.  The candidates want to do away with it. Because they understand what it means to be a victim of rape or incest?  No. Until they understand the pain that comes with these acts of violence and control they have no business telling others how they are going to deal with an unwanted pregnancy due to these acts of horror. I serious doubt it do me any good to challenge them to go and sit in on a support group for incest and/or rape survivors. I don’t think they’d ever go and just shut to hell up and listen. Nor would they ever lower themselves to go and listen to the stories about the medical problems that children born because of incest have.  Or listen to how hard it was barring the child that never had a chance of being healthy because some twelve year old’s uncle decided he had to have her.  No they’ll never go and listen to this stories because they will reconsider Planned Parenthood funding.  

In conclusion, none of the candidates didn’t really say or do anything really impressive. One of the moderators should have stayed home instead of trying to get into a verbal cat fight with Donald Trump.  If the news anchors are going to moderate these debates, they’d better get some cast iron skin because Donald Trump, like all New Yorkers, are going to offend you and they don’t give a damn. You are lucky they even talk to you. Their right, so shut up and do as they say. Even when they are wrong, they are right.
