There you go. The Military Industrial Complex has their talking points out and clearly Gabbard is a threat. Inferring she is someone connected to Russia is a new low.

We all need health care and I don't hear anything about that from Repubs. Just hear about taking health care away from people. Some seem to revel in it.
I think you'd be surprised at the % agreement on the first point.

But your 2nd point is extreme left. Think about it, you said:

I think they want to take away health care, and I think they enjoy people going without healthcare.

But you know, facts.

Yes, decades. I went to HS in NYC back in the 60's. The ads in the subway cars were in English and Spanish. People on the trains were speaking Spanish and "Spanglish" (combination of the two). When I first voted in 1970, the polls were also in both languages. It is nothing new. I decided to take Spanish in HS.

Back then there was a huge influx of Puerto Ricans to NYC. Immigrants? Illegals? No, they were US Citizens and could VOTE after moving to the States!

Forty years later we moved to SW Florida and I worked in a Title 1 Public School as a TA where the majority of the kids were Hispanic. Yes, they were required to learn English and only speak that in the classroom, but there was no requirement for their families. Teacher, who had never taken Spanish in school, was constantly calling for a Translator, even for simple conversations with the families. It all started coming back to me the more I heard it. Same with the other TA from Chicago who had learned Spanish in school. "No need to call the translator because we can tell you what she said".

No need to learn another language in school?

If Russian bots want stop Pakistan and America's ability to foster terrorism in central Asia, then they're better moral actors than American imperialists.

Moderators went easy on Tulsi. They didn't ask her why she met with Syria's Assad and why she won't say Assad is a war criminal.

Elizabeth Warren looked so lost when the others were rattling off in Spanish. Here she is at the next debate:

Where are the so-called 'fact checkers' on this debate? Top lie of the night was that 'The Trump economy isn't working.'

I don't know which planet these people are living on, but it's working perfectly well and things are going exceptionally well. My partner and I have never been in a better position all around and I don't see any people struggling around me. Employment is at an all-time high, wages are rising faster than in decades, etc.

Bring out the fact-checkers.

They presented as though they'd changed their mind about running for POTUS and to ensure they wouldn't get elected, joined the debate to demonstrate their lack of qualifications.
