I watched the big debate last night, & I was disappointed from the very first moments! I am not a fan of Donald Trump & think he is a long shot at best. Although I do find his "tell it like it is" way of speaking refreshing even if he is incorrect.
When did the media change from reporting the news to pushing their own agenda?
This event should have been a opportunity for all the 10 republicans to allow the voters to hear their vision for America. The commentator's should have asked questions that allow each speaker to elaborate their ideas, opinions, and plans for the future.
Instead, the very first question was clearly a personal attack on the number 1 candidate. Donald Trump had already made it known to the public what he might do if he did not receive the nomination. Why attack him?
The media has lost control of their neutral position totally!
The obvious push for "Pro Life" was disgusting! It just so happens that this topic had a very conveniently timed pro life news investigation report at the exact time that the debates go nation wide so that the republicans can discuss the subject & push for ending abortions!
Another "hot" topic was the republican's new adoption of "LBGT support" nation wide. I guess their direction for the 2016 elections is going away from religion, and trying to gain the rainbow vote.
I would have enjoyed hearing much more of their views on gun control, illegal immigration, welfare, taxes, home grown terrorist, possible action against ISIS & other threats, foreign aid to countries who do not support America, and plans to eliminate our national debt. :(
