    I like Ken Kratz's way of thinking.

    Except a lot of the time, all she does is interview her own family.

    Neither does Hillary, as evidenced by her stance on the No Fly list.

    CNN has at least been up front in explaining its sample pool skews Democratic, since, it says, more Democrats tend to watch debates. I don't see a lot of media outlets state that when they use CNN's numbers.

    But remember, there's always the online polls, which are as reliable as All-Star game voting.

    Yes.

    The Constitution is very dear to Secretary Clinton. That's why she didn't mention it once in an answer about what kind of justice she would nominate to the Supreme Court:


    Raddatz: Mr. Trump, we want to get to the audience. Thank you very much, both of you. We have another audience question. Beth Miller has a question for both candidates.

    Miller: Good evening. Perhaps the most important aspect of this election is the Supreme Court justice. What would you prioritize size as the most important aspect of selecting a Supreme Court justice?

    Raddatz: We begin with your two minutes, Secretary Clinton.

    Clinton: Thank you. You are right. This is one of the most important issues in this election. I want to appoint Supreme Court justices who understand the way the world really works, who have real life experience. Who have not just been in a big law firm and maybe clerked for a judge and then gotten on the bench, but maybe they tried more cases. Actually understand what people are up against. Because I think the current court has gone in the wrong direction.

    I would want to see the Supreme Court reverse Citizens United and get dark unaccountable money out of our politics. Donald doesn't agree with that. I would like the Supreme Court to understand that voting rights are a big problem in many parts of the country. That we don't do always do everything we can to make it possible for people of color and older people and young people to be able to exercise their franchise.

    I want a Supreme Court that will stick with Roe v. Wade and a woman’s right to choose, and I want a Supreme Court that will stick with marriage equality.

    Now, Donald put forth of the names of people he would consider. And among the ones that he has suggested are people who would reverse Roe v. Wade and reverse marriage equality. I think that would would be a terrible mistake and take us backwards.

    I want a Supreme Court that doesn’t always side with corporate interests.

    I want a Supreme Court that understands because you are wealthy and you can give more money to something doesn’t mean you have more rights or should have any more rights than anything else.

    So I have clear views about what I want to see to change the balance on the Supreme Court and I regret deeply that the senate has not done its job and they have not permitted a vote on the person that President Obama, a highly qualified person. They have not given him a vote to be able to have the full complement of nine Supreme Court justices. I think that was a dereliction of duty. I hope they will see their way to doing it, but if I am so fortunate as to be president, I will immediately move to make sure that we fill that. We have nine justices and that they get to work on behalf of our people.

    Trump is such a lover of the Constituion that mentioned his love for the Second Amendment, then attacked Hillary for upholding a defendant's rights to a fair trial.

    They both don't think people are on the No Fly list are entitled to due process protection under the Constitution.
