    I think Carly did a wonderful job and even handled Trump quite well. My feelings on Trump are I think he has peaked and will slowly start to fade out of the race. The newness was quite refreshing but reality will set in and the public will change their tune on him. See ya Mr. Trump.

    The U.S. has the third largest population in the World behind China and India, just South of 330 million people. Socialism works with countries with small populations, less than 10 Million for example, but it fails with large populations.

    Sure everybody likes free stuff, but you can't give everything away for free, because it isn't actually free.

    If I had to take care of a friend or family member who was down on their luck, I wouldn't hesitate. I couldn't, however take care of ALL of my friends and family members. The end result would be ALL of us suffering.

    See, here is the problem: Socialism is not about 'free stuff.' By far the most prosperous and happy Countries on the Planet are Social Democracies. Incidentally, the United States is one, but it is not very far up the list of such Countries.

    Socialism- the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society of communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.. As said in Marxist theory

    Allison sweetie trump isn't going anywhere. He hasn't phased out he is actually still raising and Carly is to she is just taking from the overs.. Which is good bc hopefully we can get the group cut down a little and who knows actually get somewhat of a debate where policy actually has the time to be spoken about rather then what CNN did in just starting a school yard fight in which case I think in some matters it fell short with them trying to do that.. .. The field will start cutting down soon though over the next few months before the Iowa caucus

    The problem is there is a Presidential candidate named Bernie (I'm a Democratic Socialist) Sanders who wants "FREE" tuition for ALL Public Universities. Up to 12 weeks paid sick leave, and who knows what else "Free" things.

    And how do you pay for "Free" College tuition? You raise the top income tax rate to 90 percent, which he said he wasn't against doing.

    Would you want your Govt. coming and taking 90 percent of what you work for to give it to someone who didn't work for it, or won't work for it?

    If I was someone thinking about starting a business, and I knew that there was someone looking to punish my success by taking 90 percent of my income, I would think twice about starting a business.

    Which was based on "Hillarycare".

    Romneycare was drafted and passed in Massachusetts, one of the most liberal states in the US. Romney didn't have the Republican votes to veto the bill, not that I think he would have any ways.

    Massachusetts spent $8010.00 per person on healthcare in 2014. Multiply that be the US population of 322,583,006, as of July 1 2014, and that comes to $2, 583, 889, 878, 060. 2.58 trillion dollars just for healthcare. How far is Socialism going to go in a country with that kind of population, or what kind of quality healthcare is there going to be available?

    There's a very thin line separating Hillary from Bernie.

    Wasn't that the question asked of Elizabeth Warren. She didn't have an answer to that question. Maybe she didn't know or she didn't want to answer.

    My mistake. I didn't pay much attention to the interview. If it was Schultz then she didn't know the answer.

    Well Scott Perry dropped out today and Trumps numbers are declining,Carli is on the rise. Trump Sounded a little more humble after his numbers dropped.
