    Tonight's Presidential Debate

    It would be nice if the moderator Chris Wallace asked questions about the real issues the American people want discussed, namely unchecked illegal immigration, Obama Care and the increasing premiums, "GOOD" jobs so that students can pay off their student loans , without having to ask the American tax payer for a handout, lower taxes, better public education for all students, and a host of other pertinent issues.
    Most of us do not want to hear about the sex issues , BUT I am sure Chris Wallace will probably start with questions of that type!
    Hopefully Hillary does not call Mr Trump unfit for public office , because she has many negative issues to deal with herself .....and here are just several: http://www.vaskal.ca/podestafiles
    Can't we have a civil debate just concerned with the issues that will affect all our lives?

    History has shown that big government, if allowed to grow at an unfettered pace, will eventually become wasteful and corrupt. No one person, no matter how well intended, can stop this from happening. It's just a law of nature. It happens in local government, state government, federal government and in world government organizations. We see the good that government programs should bring (on paper) - but the sad fact of the matter is that the people who actually run these programs are not the same people who created them. First comes inefficiency, then comes waste, then comes corruption. It just happens over and over. I wonder if this issue will come up in Wednesdays debate? Probably not.
    You see...between the racist Tea Party, bedroom snooping "conservatives" and Paul Ryan's self serving passive aggressive leadership, the Republican Party thought that being fragmented was the best way to capture the ideals of a changing America. What they didn't understand is that people are people and a unifying message of a lean and efficient government is something that lots of folks could get behind. This election should have been a chip shot for the Republicans. Instead, they've shanked the ball into deep waters that may not allow for any kind of retrieval for a long time to come.

      Why can't we get decent candidates ? There are good people on both sides.

          Paul Ryan has his faults, I just hope he's still Speaker come Jan. 21 (or at least some Republican).

          I blame Trump and his advisers for this. Facing an opponent who could be attacked on many fronts, he has allowed himself to become the victim of the attacks.

            Louetta Very true , but we here at "Mr Market Is Huge" will continue to do well no matter who gets in. The best way to become totally independent is to become financially secure , and all the people here posting will help us to do just that. Why worry?
