Will Wallace preface any question re Benghazi with facts about those killed under Bush etc

200 others.

Who blamed Bush for those deaths?

I doubt he will so H needs to have that answer ready. Shut them down.

She does not need to apologise or address that idiot "guest".

Nope. That would be the same as fact-checking and he isn't going to do that. tonyt53 Oct 2016 #3
Doubtful. Prob also won't mention Ambassador's family doesn't blame Clinton. Panich52 Oct 2016 #4
Blame her for what? Proud Liberal Dem Oct 2016 #6
She can't say that. Comparing deaths to deaths would be a horrible answer. anamandujano Oct 2016 #5

The debate is about HRC and Trump, and their actions and plans, not about the past. Now, She should bring it up, but not the moderator.

Think HRC made huge tactical error in agreeing to let Faux RW hack Wallace moderate. Guarantee you, he will badger the shit out of HRC about emails and Benghazi, and will ask the orange groper questions like how are you going to bring change, how are you going to raise wages, BS like that with no follow up when drumpf doesn't answer or gives totally BS answer. . That's the main reason I am dreading this, it's slanted before it even begins. I will be 100% shocked if this isn't another Lauer effort at Dem destruction.

This is mostly a rhetorical question, but there have been how many investigations exonerating her from any wrongdoing in what happened in Benghazi? The mother of one of the victims has my sympathy but trying to publicly stir things up at a Presidential debate helps nobody and I'm not exactly sure what supporting Trump will accomplish either..........

Tell Barack's half brother that Barack said hello and would like him to visit his family soon.

To the grief stricken mom she should say that she has been over all the evidence and events of that night and she realizes that doing all she could to help that situation, it still ended tragically and she takes on the responsibility as then serving Secretary of State to shoulder the administrative blame. As a mom she is deeply sad for this woman and will make changes with the help of funding from congress to better secure our embassies and improve intelligence to some how in the future stop anyone from falling like her son.

Leave her podium hug grieving mom and greet Barack's relative.

I would. Course I'm not running for anything.
