You know, I refuse to do any research on this topic. This is primarily due to the fact that I'm quite sure the only Google hit I would get is Breitbart or worse. So, when it's too sleazy to Google ... why is it in the debate hall?

My theory is something along these lines. This brother is probably somebody who has a bone to pick with Obama. He's probably willing to bad mouth the president for a few bucks. The further message is to direct attention to the fact that Obama grew up without a dad. On top of that, the absentee dad was a worthless jerk who had a million wives and children that he didn't take care of. Oh yeah, they're all a bunch of black people and they're (gasp) Muslims to boot. Yay!!! Brilliant strategy.

Problems with the brilliant strategy:

1. Obama isn't running for president.
2. Obama is extremely popular and this will just motivate his coalition to get out the vote.
3. Nobody gives a shit about Obama's African relatives that he didn't even know until he was an adult.
4. This distracts from legitimate issues that Trump could be attacking Hillary with.
5. All it does is make the brother and Trump look small and Obama (and Hillary by association) look big.




He actually seems to be a pretty decent guy. Good for him.

Same here. Just saw Giuliani being an utter dick, and I'm done for the night.

Same here. I'll use the DVR so, if I'm doing chores, I can rewind. I've done this for every debate and have yet to look back at the recording --- that's the level of crap we've been dealing with --- not even worth a rewind.

My wife is watching it at the moment, and I am sorta listening, but the debate won't change my vote, its already been cast and on the way to California.

They should bring back that program "celebrity death match" these two would fight to the death


So I been listening to the debate and i am convinced this is just a re run of the last debate

All you need to know

The moderator was much better.

Cubs fan here. We made the right choice, I think

All I can say is that if Hillary wins the election it will be a tremendous relief to me that Donald lost but at the same time 4 years of Hillary in the WH doesn't exactly want to make me jump for joy.

It's a far cry from 2011 when Obama beat Romney and I felt good about that. How times have changed

Hillary wins....America hates her 12% less than Trump.

Even up. Sadly for Cub fans 10-2 does not count more than 1-0.

For those keeping score that's zero questions about climate change in all the debates. Good to see we have our priorities right.

Oh and Trump's answer about whether he'll respect the outcome of the election is wait and see. Holy fck!

No, it doesn't, but it was still fun to watch. Also, **** the Dodgers.

I'm starting to think that it's going to take Manhattan being underwater before people realise that this is an urgent, pressing and very real issue that needs to be dealt with. This pisses me off beyond belief.
