"By most accounts, Republican challenger Mitt Romney was the clear winner of Wednesday's first debate with President Barack Obama. Romney engaged the incumbent while Obama looked down at his lectern. The challenger was a more forceful debater while Obama appeared less than engaged." Here are five things we learned on Wednesday"

I have watched other things like speeches and looked online. But this post is strictly just about the debate and to me Mitt Romney won. Now, I understand there is no actual winner and I'm not saying you guys are wrong, but going by just this debate, Romney without a doubt won.

Alex, if there is no actual winner than how did he win? that's contradicting yourself. I agree that Romney presented himself better at the debate but outside of the debate I believe Obama has and you believe Romney has we are just going to have to agree to disagree

"Presidential debates and their effects: An updated research roundup"

The 2 candidates in my opinion are very in maturate. Neither of them should be running for president. Also I think more people are starting to realize how bad Trump is for our country because Hillary's increase of voters.

The debates have only proven that voters are now leaning more toward Hillary instead of Donald Trump because it brought up his past statements and views.

Larry King, the celebrated talk show host accustomed to A-list interview guests, has agreed to moderate a debate featuring a squad of minor-party presidential candidates. The former CNN giant will guide next Tuesday's debate in Chicago, which will be broadcast on the Internet. The candidates taking part are the Libertarian Party's Gary Johnson, the Green Party's Jill Stein, the Constitution Party's Virgil Goode and the Justice Party's Rocky Anderson.

This should be interesting, and I'm glad that someone is giving third parties a chance to be heard. As King said, our political system isn't a two party system by law, and I strongly disagree with the two party system. It would be great if third parties could get more recognition.

Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski says that the candidate isn't afraid of Thursday night's debate. "He's not afraid to take a question," he told ABC's George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America." "The issue is an issue of fairness," he added, claiming that Fox News anchor Megyn...

Donald Trump's campaign manager is saying that Donald trump is not afraid of losing the caucus because there is never a fair debate and he will still run and answer all the questions people throw at him.

I think that Trump is pulling out of the debate, not because he's intimidated, but I think it may be a way of seeing how many supporters he has. At the end of the article, it says that there is expected to be substantially less viewers. I'm thinking that this is Trump's way of seeing how many suporters he has now, and see how hard he has to work in the future to get more suporters.

This should be a reminder to watch tonight's Presidential debate. 

(CNN) -- While President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney were ostensibly responding to questions from uncommitted voters at a town hall-style debate on Tuesday, they found plenty of opportunities to attack each other during the 90-minute encounter.

Romney was doing fine, until he opened his mouth. "When you're explaining, You're losing"

Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have finally come to terms on where and when they will have one more debate before New York 's Democratic primary. It's going down in Brooklyn. The DNC-sanctioned debate will be aired on CNN and NY1, a regional cable news outlet, from 9 p.m.

"Ten Democrats seeking the presidency vied for advantage Wednesday night in a debate just over two months before the primary voting begins. How some of their claims from Atlanta stack up with the facts:"

Inmates from the Eastern New York Correctional Facility defeated the prestigious Harvard debate team in mid-September as part of the Bard Prison Initiative, a program run by Bard College to provide college education to qualifying prisoners, according to the Wall Street Journal.

This makes me think of the Toffler reading from our Chpt 1. "It is the truly revolutionary characteristic of knowledge that it can be grasped by the weak and the poor as well. Knowledge is the most democratic source of power." The USA imprisons more people than anywhere else in the world. Obviously there is a lot of talent being untapped by people who chose crime instead of channeling their efforts in positive ways.

Declining to participate in the Fox News debate -- which Sanders had agreed to -- is another clear sign that Clinton and her top aides are fully focused on the general election against Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.

Hillary Clinton is refusing to debate Bernie Sanders in the state that elected her to two U.S. Senate terms unless Sanders essentially silences himself. After his clean sweep of caucuses in Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii, Sen. Sanders challenged the former U.S.

Washington (CNN) - If it wasn't already clear that Mitt's Romney and his allies are trying to lower expectations heading into next Wednesday's debate against President Obama in Denver, the campaign is now making it official.

you would think after actually having corona he would open his eyes a little more but, he needs to understand why these virtual debates are happening and as our current president he would do that for his people and put a good example.

I agree with the comment above mine, you definitely would think that after having the virus he would take a step towards more virtual meetings instead of being everywhere all the time without a mask.

Gun laws have been back in the media recently due, largely, to the horrific events at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012 which claimed the lives of 20 children and six adults. In response President Obama has just unveiled gun control proposals. In light of this growing focus on gun legislation, some have expressed concern about the possibility of guns being manufactured in the home using 3D-printing technology (also known as "additive manufacturing" or AM).

the government shuld not have to provide free birth control for women if their not going to use methods of not getting pregnant

I think this page will help you boys understand a little more about what birth control actually is: http://www.webmd.com/sex/birth-control/features/other-reasons-to-take-the-pill Personally, I think that it should be covered by insurance. Besides being a popular contraceptive, it control many different hormones in a woman's body. It's used to cure things like ovarian cysts, and irregular periods. It can relieve those pesky cramps that you get on your period, or just at random points of the month. It will clear your acne, and even help prevent cancers. And, the hormones being consumed by taking the pill, can balance our emotions, possibly making us more tolerance of ignorance towards women's health. The church aspect of this story is, in my opinion, ridiculous. Them refusing to cover a product that would help their employees be healthier, prettier, nicer, and more likely to remain cancer free, is unreasonable. Just because the typical use is frowned upon by their religions, doesn't mean it's right to make their employees spend their hard earned money on measures to maintain a healthy body, that could be covered by their companies insurance.

I don't see why taking measures to prevent a pregnancy is so bad. People are always saying that teenagers are getting pregnant at a young age when the truth is, maybe these girls can't afford it. No, they should not be having sex so young but sometimes you have to face the fact that girls are having sex at a young age and instead of turning a blind eye, they should take measures to prevent the pregnancy from happening. Just like Kirsten said, it does more than just preventing pregnancies. Some girls need it and can't afford it.

Clinton going against her statements from previous campaigns yet again when she refused, also again, to debate with Democratic rival Bernie Sanders.

She blew Sanders off and said some mean stuff about Trump.

Clinton is a savage

"The new results in two battleground states underscore the closeness of the race and come as the candidates prepare to square off Monday night in their high-stakes first debate at Long Island's Hofstra University."

"On the weekend leading up to 2016's first presidential debate, four news organizations came to a similar and sweeping conclusion: Donald Trump lies more often than Hillary Clinton."

Hillary Clinton and her allies have begun preparing a playbook to defeat Donald Trump that will attempt to do what his Republican opponents couldn't: show that he's unfit to be commander in chief.

I find it interesting they are essentially coming up with a play by play book on how to defeat Donald Trump, this makes me wonder what Donald Trump is going to attempt to do to beat Hillary/counter her play book.

I find it comical that Hillary and her campaign refuse to debate Sanders due to him being 'too harsh' or whatever they said, yet still think they could handle Trump's no-limit attacks. In comparison, Bernie has kept it completely PG and Trump will pull every card he knows possible to tear her down.
