Next GOP Presidential Debate Tomorrow Night


                                            

Tomorrow night, CNN will host the second debate between the 2016 Republican presidential candidates. Like the previous one run by Fox News, Wednesday's debate will be divided into a primetime debate at 8 p.m. that is preceded by a 6 p.m. debate with the second-tier candidates. The primetime debate features the top 11 candidates based on CNN's polling average: businessman Donald Trump, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, surgeon Ben Carson, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and businesswoman Carly Fiorina (who did not appear in the Fox News primetime debate). (CNN.com, Sept. 12, 2015) The "undercard" debate includes: Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, former New York Gov. George Pataki, and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham. (Id.) Former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore — who appeared in the Fox News undercard debate — did not qualify for the CNN debate because of low polling. (Id.)

During the Fox News debate, several candidates were asked immigration questions in the first hour but then the issue was not brought up later. (See FAIR Legislative Update, Aug. 11, 2015) With recent polls showing that voters view immigration as one of the top issues of 2016, FAIR hopes that CNN's moderators will devote more time to questioning all candidates on their immigration positions. Indeed, a new Rasmussen poll found that 80 percent of registered voters view illegal immigration as a serious problem. (Rasmussen Reports, Sept. 1, 2015) Additionally, the latest Gallup poll shows that 20 percent of registered voters will only vote for a candidate whose immigration position aligns with theirs while 60 percent said it is one of many "important considerations." (Gallup Poll, Sept. 9, 2015)

The debate can be viewed on CNN or streamed at CNN.com.

One may well be familiar with many of these organizations, but the complete list can be staggering even to those who are aware. Here's the straight skinny with no intro necessary: A. Organizations directly funded by Soros and his Open Society Foundations (OSF): Posted by Dr. Eowyn :  Source: DiscoverTheNetworks.org Advancement Project : This organization works to organize “communities of color” into politically cohesive units while disseminating its leftist worldviews and values as broadly as possible by way of a sophisticated communications department. Air America Radio : Now defunct, this was a self-identified “liberal” radio network. Al-Haq : This NGO produces highly politicized reports, papers, books, and legal analyses regarding alleged Israeli human-rights abuses committed against Palestinians. All of Us or None : This organization seeks to change voting laws — which vary from state to state — so as to allow ex-inmates, parolees, and even curr...

Powerful Robber Barons of the 21st Century: Emerging Tech Giants

The power of the 19th century Robber Barons pales in comparison to the present day tech giants. Our 21st century version controls the media thus information and ultimately the mass thought process. To say the least, present times are trying and dangerous. Many are on to the spewing of fake news and no longer have faith in the government. This is a most dangerous situation. There are those who will push for reform and transparency. They will not be allowed to succeed. America is being set up for a revolution that, if violent, will be spearheaded by the likes of Antifa, who will be dispensed with as soon as they compete their dirty work. The populace must be ever vigilant. The fight for the dignity and freedom of humanity will not end until planet Earth no longer exists. The elites will never cede their power and status. At times they may appear to be down but they are never out, and there will always be a plethora of useful idiots who will unquestionably serve them. The motto of th...
