Last night both the hosts and the candidates needed to turn the discussion away from the economy, Why? Well, mainly because under Republican leadership, the economy suffers. There are many reasons why the economy does better when Democrats are in charge. You can read some of them for yourself here: http://www.salon.com/2015/05/04/11_economic_facts_about_the_presidency_that_show_how_hillary_clinton_can_win/
These aren't someone's opinions. These are cold, hard facts! So, this is not something that Republicans deal with easily. Remember the Republican spokesperson during Mitt Romney's campaign who said, "We don't need no fact checker!"? To Republicans, facts are just stuff you say to appeal to your base and have no real basis in reality other than to pander to them for political gain.
Last night, the CNBC moderators could have asked about the need to improve our rapidly degrading infrastructure. They could have asked about what the candidates were planning to do to change the decline in incomes for middle class workers. They could have asked how privatizing government services would benefit the middle class. They could have asked how the candidates would continue and improve job growth. But, they didn't.
We Democrats know that Republicans bring us recessions. We must do our part to register voters and work to encourage more people to get involved in politics. We can't afford another Republican in the White House. My candidate has been vocal about warning people to this reality and she is speaking the facts! http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/sep/22/hillary-clinton/hillary-clinton-recessions-more-frequent-under-rep/
Let's be smart and elect Democrats! Elect them at every level from the school board to the White House!
