Some debate questions Democrats should answer
Boston Herald ^ | March 5, 2019 | Howie Carr

I can’t wait for the Democrat presidential debates.

So many questions immediately come to mind, although I’m sure they will never be asked, considering that most of the “moderators” will be Democrat operatives with press passes — think George Stephanopoulos, Jake Tapper, Chuck Todd et al.

But here are some obvious inquiries for the woke 2020 presidential field:

Do you agree with U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that climate change will doom the world within 12 years?

Given the fact that the U.S. has greatly reduced its carbon emissions even as China, India and much of the rest of the Third World have been increasing their pollution, would you be willing to undertake military action against such nations in order to prevent climate apocalypse and the end of the world?

What crimes should be deportable offenses for an illegal immigrant? Drunk driving? Rape? Murder? Kidnapping? Animal abuse? Drug trafficking? Fraud?

One-word answer, please: How many genders are there?

Would you pledge right now not to try to “pack” the Supreme Court to dilute the conservative majority?

Do you agree with U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris that prostitution should be legalized?

Do you agree with Harris that private health insurance should be abolished?

Do you agree with the International Olympic Committee’s decision to allow “transitioning” males to compete in female athletic events?

If a $15-an-hour minimum wage is good, why not raise the minimum wage to $25 or $50 or $100?

Should meat consumption be limited, or outlawed?

Would you ever dine at a Chick Fil-A?

Is Vice President Mike Pence a decent man?

In order to fight climate change, will you pledge to never again fly on a private jet during this campaign?

President Franklin D. Roosevelt supported internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II — should his portrait be removed from the dime?

Have you ever falsely identified your race on any official document? If so, please raise your hand, Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Should babies who survive abortions be allowed to live, or do you consider it a mother’s choice whether her child is killed or not, even after birth?

Please raise your hand if as president you would order the removal of existing walls on the southern border.

Should congressional sexual-harassment payments be made public?

Should military veterans get preference over immigrants, legal or illegal, in the public housing system?

Do you support reparations? Should blacks whose ancestors immigrated to the U.S. after slavery, and even more recently, after the beginning of “affirmative action” racial-preference programs, be eligible for reparations?

Should whites whose ancestors immigrated to the U.S. after the end of slavery be exempt from having to pay reparations?

Was U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders treated fairly by the Democratic Party during the 2016 primary campaign?

Many Democrats have said that all women should be believed when they report sexual harassment or assault by men. Juanita Broaddrick has accused Bill Clinton of raping her — should she be believed?

Who is the legitimate president of Venezuela?

How did Venezuela go from the richest country in South America to the poorest in 30 years? Could the catastrophe possibly be related to the embrace of socialism by that nation’s last two dictators?

Should Muslim bakers and florists be compelled to take part in gay weddings, the way Christians have been?

Should vaccines be mandatory?

Would you support expelling U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-MN, from the House Foreign Relations Committee for her anti-Semitic statements?

Given that marriage is now considered an “evolving paradigm,” are there any other laws regarding sex that you might want to amend or repeal? Specifically, those outlawing incest, statutory rape and bestiality?

Should illegal immigrants who buy guns be reported to ICE? It is against the law for them to own weapons, after all, and most of you support making it more difficult for citizens to obtain firearms.

Two of you up on stage are known plagiarists — Joe Biden and Warren. Have any of the rest of you ever plagiarized anything?

Should a politician who appears in blackface, or in full Ku Klux Klan regalia, resign from office, even if it means he will be replaced by a Republican?

And one final question:

If President Trump tomorrow identified as a woman, began hormone therapy and scheduled a sex-change operation, would you consider him the first female president of the United States?

They won’t get asked anything near those...why do you think they have “dis-invited” FOX News (not that FOX would be so bold)?

Great questions. Only thing is the lamestreamers have decided that the only entity who could possibly get a slight chance of asking even one question like that is FOX and they will not be allowed to show up.

Howie was certainly having fun with the listeners/callers/texters on this topic on his show yesterday.

Most of these questions and more should be asked of the Klown Kar passengers.

“What is your opinion of the FBI and DOJ attempting to extra-legally remove a President and what kind of precedent does that set for future Democratic administrations?”

Lots of people are of mixed race. What percentages of black/white ancestry trigger receiving/paying reparations?

Are non-African heritage blacks to receive reparations?

Aren’t the Democrats on T.V. media asking Democrat Candidates the questions now? They will all know the questions in advance. The cards are marked. The candidates know what card will be dealt.

Good questions, but I would really like to see this format: The Republican candidate writes a question that the moderator asks the Democrat out loud, then reverse the roles. IF the moderator changes the wording as it was written, the writing candidate gets to interrupt and ask the question as it was originally worded.

With Donald Trump as the Republican candidate, the entertainment value would guarantee huge ratings, and that is secondary to the information value.

The reason the Dems banned Fox News from the debates is they want as little exposure as possible for there candidates think about it the more people that watches this circus the more likable Trunp becomes and I would bet that there will be now Presidential debate for the same reason can you emigine what Trump will do to there chosen one but they will tell the gullible public that Trumps too raciest to be allowed on the debate floor..

Perhaps FOX should offer a debate for those that are willing to show up. Those that do will get more credibility. Trump is the trump. He can threaten a tit for tat.
