The Diamonds or Pearls Question

[branscom81203]

Unfortunately Hillary, the Bilderbergs and Committee of 300 did not choose you. They chose someone who would get the peoples hopes up here in the U.S. and overseas and being so desperate for change and hope watch with amusement as the puppet they selected do the opposite of everything he had promised them. Obama proved to rulers that he could be more ruthless than Hillary.

[ttiiyy]

This video proves two things:

1.) That greedy Clinton bitch deserved to be cheated on.2

2.) Hispanics should not be allowed to vote.

[Gonji]

If this was a serious question in the presidential debate. Then it would show the level of greed that is instilled in these politicians and their mindsets. The real question is not if Hilary Clinton is for diamonds or pearls, it is whether or not she is even viable to be a candidate to represent for the people and the constitution. So far, she is not qualified. Failed debate.

[ttiiyy]

@Gonji Didn't the New York Times endorse her? What a trashy newspaper.

[greatbydesign33]

And we were BRAINWASHED into believing that Ross Perot was the Crazy one when he was the only voice of TRUTH. And EVERYTHING he said and predicted became 1000% FACT. And btw ... why would Hilary choose from diamonds or pearls? Isn't she a man?

[rudeawakeningxxx]

well, we know for sure she isnt getting pearl necklaces- monicas taking care of that.

[luciditynow]

Joe Biden is for diamonds. LOL

[eazymofuckinge]

wtf!?!? thats hilarious

i assume they screen these questions first, i cant believe that woman let that through

[triton111]

Of course she wants both. That's Hitlary she wants it all. In real life though Bill gave her diamonds because he gave Monica the pearls- on her blue dress.

[CreeperDELUXE]

Well she has lost my vote

[Beatles9956]

That was the most obvious set-up ever. Hillary doesn't appear to be a real enough person, or a real enough woman, so this phony question dealt with both of those problems.

[WatchingBigBrother]

hillary makes me want to die.

[Rpatrick85]

They was actually in the paper. CNN gave her the opprotunity to ask a question to the candidates and it had to be approved by the CNN affiliates. Well they rejected her first questions and then they told her to pick one more serious question and a "fun" question. Now right before her, someone asked about Yucca mountain (the serious one) and when the camera came onto her, the pressure was on. So, this was nothing more than the media's attempt to get a sound byte.

[kylelastname]

I've never before wished someone to commit suicide before I saw this "student". Seriously that can't be a real person with a sincere question it had to be set up by the media/"The Man". Motive??? Maybe to have the last Americans with half a brain bash their own heads into the TV set, thus allowing for an easier transition in to complete totalitarianism.

[mmike01]

SO FKIN ignorant

[timg455]

What a stupid fucking bitch. It doesn't get more ridiculous than this about saying what you believe. It's sad that a candidate can be so high in the polls and never say what she believes.

[moon1roam]

What's sad is when the people of this great nation know nothing about where our candidates stand on important issues, and care instead about what they wear or look like. Do you know where each candidate stands on issues important to you? If not, perhaps you should spend less time writing and more time reading. Your vote speaks volumes about your character--do you know what your candidates support?

[moon1roam]

One more thing...If you want to know what a candidate believes, go to his/her web site--it's not a difficult task. Name calling and ad hominem attacks are the refuge of the weak minded. If you can't address the issues instead calling juvenile names, blame yourself as ignorant.

[niginit]

that would be cool, except for this really neato invention the spineless created oh so many years ago, its called LIEING.

[timg455]

It's not that I can't find out where each candidate stands, its that they aren't bold about it, and attempt to say as little as possible so potential voters can remain ignorant to potentially vote harming information. I don't want a candidate who cares more about being president, than doing good for the country and having citizens who fully support them.

[gabecollett]

Barack Obama is going to win, unified Democratic Party Victory 2008!!

Vote People!!

[niginit]

that would really suck, obama is hillary, is giuliani, is romney, is huckabee, is bush, is bush sr., is.................... all the way back to the dinosaurs, they are the original lizard people!

seriously, if you want REAL change, it only comes by voting for RON PAUL! dont kid yourself, dont fool yourself, dont give in to their lies. obama=hillary=bush

[Samurai4Jesus]

Why is it that every political video I watch is accompanied by some Ron Paul supporter with a random, "These guys suck! Vote Ron paul comment?" Do you guys have some kind of conspiracy going or something? Seriously! It seems like you guys take a shot on anything you can, even on videos that don't have your candidate in them! BTW, Ron Paul is below 10% support now. Keep hopin buddy! :p

[niginit]

conspiracy? yeah it's called common sense,we know who the real candidate is and what the other candidates REALLY ARE.

SERIOUSLY LIKE OMG!lol you sound like a little bible-hugging idiocrat,which is exactly what you are and why you are so dumb.

pick up a different book for once,you just might learn something.OH NOs!

BTW RON PAUL HAS PRINCIPLES THAT HE STANDS BY:THE RULE OF LAW,SOUND MONEY,HUMBLE FOREIGN POLICY

all other candidates don't even come close to the kind of consistancy he has

[Samurai4Jesus]

"Bible hugging idiocrat?" rofl That's mature man... And.. how old are you? That's nice. Judging people is a true sign of maturity as well. It's funny how us Christians are stereotyped as doing that, and yet look what's going on here. I was just curious as to why Ron Paul supporters have to advertise their candidate on videos that have nothing to do with him. That's all. Ron Paul is still hopelessly below even Huckabee (who isn't doing too hot himself.)

[niginit]

lol yeah,don't even talk about judging people.If anyone has the right to judge it is the atheist(who is completely correct and has been throughout history and has subsequently been killed for it).

i'm not advertising,im speaking my opinion which is another thing that the religious have a problem with.although it is my right as a free american to speak what i think,you dont understand this i know but it applies to you aswell i assure you.

how is ron paul not relavent?hes running also.

[sharreh]

she is so greedy as she chooses both.

[BethL1959]

That is soooooo true. But what can we expect from the biggest liar on the face of the earth. She would sell her soul to get what she wants.

[niginit]

HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY....... wait just a second....... what about bush or giuliani? i mean if you are going to say BIGGEST liar, arent they just slightly ahead of this crabwoman?

[BethL1959]

No, they aren't even close. I think Hillary has a jump on every other politican on the planet. Even her "personality"(if you want to call it that) is a shame.

[niginit]

she is undoubtedly creepy and fake to the point of which no other politician has sunk before. but bush is fake as fuck too and so is giuliani and romney, they all deserve eachother.

vote for a real candidate, vote ron paul in 08!

[kurdistaniatheist]

Let the Kurds declare independence

[Dekartdek]

A president of dignity would have answered: "NEITHER DIAMONDS NOR PERLS"

I like this question - it shows how greedy the ice queen is.

[gabecollett]

OBAMA, hes a hard worxing bro

he doesnt need bling-bling

the 90s, too much bling

bring bac the 70s, middle-class, leftism, that is for me

except greater technology, JIMMY CARTER FOREVER

[BethL1959]

Its really scary that you think things were good during the Carter adminastration. Look up inflation, interest rates ect... It was not a good time. If you want to long for the good old days you better go a little farther back.

[gabecollett]

Yeah, but there was character, integrity

and leftwing-middle class values

thats what I want, no more rich people deciding everything

[niginit]

obama is trying to protect those rich people aswell, no matter what that nga spits on the mic he is just as bad as hilary or giuliani. dont get so easily fooled.

[gabecollett]

OBAMA FOREVER

SENATOR OBAMA-PRESIDENT OBAMA 08

We love you man!

[niginit]

ummmm i dont think your getting it, if you vote for obama you are voting for the neocon thugs that are in the whitehouse at the moment. if you are ok with that then keep shouting hilary or obama.

[gabecollett]

OBAMA 08!!

HES THE MAN!!

[BethL1959]

The middle class suffered the worst during the Carter adminstration. But yes, we did still have God in our schools and we were patrotic. This is not going away becasue of rich people. Look to the ACLU and liberal leftwingers for that. And I do not mean democrats. True republicans and Democrats have values, its the fringes that are high jacking the country.

[niginit]

more like the banking cartels and NAU interests.

[HaloedG]

Trick question...she supports blood diamond labor in Sierra Leone. That girl is a complete fucking asshat.

[ihatem1cro5oft]

Hey 'frontrunners' we are on to you! Hillary and Giuliani are CFR NWO cocksmokers, and they cannot hide it any more! fuck the MSM, RNC, DNC, CFR, AIPAC, UN, CATO, Bilderbergs, and their puppet politicians! FYI i'm no antisemite, I just hate our entangling alliances and corporate welfare state.

[kokolo00]

Hilary was even dumber to answer such a dumb question.

It is scary that one of these people may be president...

[AbFabFreakk]

God, I know.

Course... I'm referring to all of the far-lefties.

[eekdog2005]

Diamonds or pearls? Planted question?

[straygypsy]

UNLV's brightest.....BEHOLD!!!

[MikeSkullman]

The. World. Is. Doomed.

[CENTERWILL]

Dumb question.

[andrea082]

if any question was ever programmed during a debate, it was this one right here!

give me a break! What if she picked pearls?? Are you not going to vote for her??? I mean come on...

[chiznaddy]

I think many people missed her redeeming comment: "the only shinny thing up there".

[jcjcd]

I heard it! and she is right! The rest is dull boring and unelectable! I will vote Republican if it's not Hillary, the rest of the Dems will get us slaughtered in a terrorist attack!

[chiznaddy]

I think she meant the pearls were the only things shinning (notice Clinton's necklace)...not Clinton herself. When one's message is not their own, one cannot "shine".

Clinton may have all the best intention in the world, but having to sacrifice your conviction for support from corporatations and special interests (whether they themselves have good intentions or not) in the pursuit of your goal can lead the most admirable astray.

[wanealy]

ok, this is beyond Liberal vs. Conservative here. We're allowing the networks to basically make the choices for us, and candidates to plant fake questions? What is going on with this democracy? Are we so complacent that we're gonna accept this crap?

[TomsFriendKake]

Why doesn't anyone ask questions about our sinking dollar, or about exactly how much we owe China and Japan, and how were going to pay that back, or ask questions about the balloning inflation or the collapsing housing market. My gog, this country is speeding wreaklessly into hyperinflation, and most of these candidates want to keep spending. Wake Up people, Wake Up. look into Ron Paul if you care about this country.

[hellotommy]

Bias

[hellotommy]

The media is killing Hillary's chances by "trying to hard" to help her.

Fair and Balanced (for Dems)

[kurtisblow3000]

greedy bitch

[kurtisblow3000]

yes. WHAT THE FUCK.

[proudTXgal]

fake question - "planted"

[nkfallout]

that was a placed questions by cnn...

[stagingthetrafficjam]

"CNN ran out of time and used me to "close" the debate with the pearls/diamonds question. Seconds later this girl comes up to me and says, "you gave our school a bad reputation.' Well, I had to explain to her that every question from the audience was pre-planned and censored. That's what the media does.

[SyBurnette]

~ Every Morning when i wake up, i'm surprised that America still exists. My dreams tell me that Russian and Chinese Missiles are raining down on American cities and towns, but when i wake up and turn on the news, America is still obsessed with Britney Spears. IF my dreams are accurate to any degree, it cant be much worse than it is right now. Missiles raining or never-ending coverage of Britney Spears? what's the difference. Same Result. HELL.

[DEMOCRATT]

just wait until the Military has to call Hillary ... Commander in Chief. Muahahahahahaha. The Clintons are going to make sure that the Army/Marines/Navy etc are de-balled. Most will quit, enlistment will be practically non existent, a draft may be implemented because very few Americans will want to serve Hillary's Military. LOL, Bye Bye USA <---- a future hit song.

[Woodchuckk]

WTF?!?

This counrty is doomed!

Ron Paul Champion of the Constitution!

[HilaryCliton]

the Clintons are like leaders of the Media Mafia. CNN and had to treat Hillary the way they did or CNN would have been toppled in one way or another. Clintons = Power. Whether it be corrupt or not, it's still POWER. the Bottom Line is that The People of America dont matter until the Politicians are UP FOR ELECTION. As soon as the Politicians are elected, the People are on the backburner. I feel bad for Americans, they have truly Lost the Country to Power Hungry Politicians.

[o7jimmy]

The question should be: "What about the Arkansas, White Water deal, that coast many of senior citizens there homes and savings"?

[CitizenBrain]

god hillary makes me want to puke, this audience was completely set up for hillary. what a stupid question, people are fucking dying you sick fucks.

[putittogether]

A real question in a real American debate....We are truly fucked as a country....goddammit.

[patsagainstrats]

Monica prefers a pearl necklace.

[KnightWolfPictures]

It does not matter none of the canidates or even Congress knows what the voters want. They do not even try to listen. That why they have done nothing for their time in Congress. Thanks to Hillary, Nancy, Harry.....

[Daydayday2006]

turbocapitalist statement

[psychmaster11]

I thought I was watching one of the SNL episodes. What a soap opera!!!

Mr. Wolf Blitzer was genuinely the moderator running campaigns for Hillary. the last question was planted by CNN and popped by one of political science majors. The boo-audience also betrayed their intelligence and manners.

[JFields781]

For hilarious political satire, watch my video. Just click on my username, you'll be glad you did.

[vocalbrush]

if she was clever as opposed to self absorbed, she would've answered diamonds since they have scientific uses more so than a pearl.I also would've asked cultured, Tahitian, South Sea, or Akoya, don't like cultured pearls they lack luster- much like Hitlery.Rather though, I would've have answered they're both lovely for particular occasions, but I prefer precious Opal.

[youngsinfo]

More like cubic zirconia ! stick a match to it and you'll see a real these politicians are!

Vote for the real thing . Robert Young on get real!!!

[Carlisle3Leeds1]

Why did America let ALL their politicians go so right-wing?

I mean, your Democrat candidates (except DK) are more right-wing than our Conservatives in Britain.

[MojoJuana]

planted questions will sucker the suckers in everytime...paper or plastic? spit or swallow?

[yayarea41507]

"accuses her of not making a choice"

Thats b/c you're ridiculously generic fool

She's never specific, plays the gender card, and is a complete hypocrite. She voted for the patriot act twice, will not bring the troops home, will continue spending all the money bush drained from this economy, will continue the fascism, recant all the bs promises she's making, and lie over and over again.

[eastwood13]

That shows her personality...She wants it all!

More for them and less for you,.. the politicians way.

[cinnamoncluster]

why is she sorta playing the gender card?

[exweez]

the sound of her voice makes my skin crawl

[kazakune]

I laugh at people who thinks she is the best candidate. If memory serves me correctly when her husband was in office didn't she have a bill passed that gives teachers the authority to prescribe children Ritalin without a doctor's permission? If you have ever taken Ritalin or ADHD medication you can never join the U.S. Military. She is one of the biggest pharmaceutical tools in the Senate.

[dantedraco]

Think about this. Even if it was a retarded question at the end, the way Clinton answered the question was in a way a defense of her critics on her "flip flops". She is a genius spin doctor. She is going to win.

[nismobeach]

Gotta love planted questions. Be smart and don't support these people.

Vote with your conscious and support Ron Paul in 2008.

[foxdragoon84]

The pointlessness and artificiality of the debate is further reflected by that pointless and artificial question.

[Dallouez]

If I were a canidate I would have asked her which ones she planed to wear at the funerial of the soldiers who died after she woted to send them to war.

[raoulthompson]

Glad she likes diamonds and pearls, seeing as diamonds are procured by the slaves of guerillas in Africa, and pearl farming is destroying coral reefs. That's just great, Hillary. Thanks for that. That's some real social consciousness for a presidential candidate.

[putittogether]

Are you kidding me? that was real... Holly shit we are truly fucked.

[NoMoreBlatherDotCom]

The anti-war question was from someone who's appeared with Harry Reid: tinyurl dot com/2sezl6

The pearls questioner is a former illegal alien who apparently used to work for Harry Reid: tinyurl dot com/3yz2hg

And, another questioner is apparently a former official of a state Dem party.

Anyone else having Soviet Union flashbacks?

[NoMoreBlatherDotCom]

Correction to the first: she was a "local anti-war activist" who was among the counter protesters of a protest in front of Harry Reid's NV office.

Roundup here: tinyurl dot com/2s4ymx

[jillwheeler]

This is sad. We finally have a viable woman candidate and the network chooses this type of question to end the debate. It's humiliating to Clinton and all women, and rude to the other candidates.

[4dr3n41in3]

*barf*

Considering ~30-45 mins. earlier, a US soldier and his mother asked if he was going to be redeployed a 4th time, with her concerned that he wasn't going to make it home alive, this question was just...*barf*

[mpost81]

Gee what are the odds coming on the heels of planted questions and she gets another one!

[bigsid920]

She's a great actor. I don't trust her. Go Dennis Kucinich

[asdffd]

"Lacking utterly in originality and moral courage, the majority has always placed its destiny in the hands of others.....Have not the few accumulated the wealth of the world? Their success, however, is not due to individualism, but to the inertia, the cravenness, the utter submission of the mass. The latter wants to be dominated, to be led, to be coerced."

Emma Goldman

[Coyotefreak1]

BOO!!!!! COYOTEFREAK1 FOR PRESIDENT

[moofph]

...kharma...coming to a generation near you...

[Gilliatt83]

so right so greedy

[BethL1959]

Hillary has been getting a free pass from the media for years. They started electing her a long time ago, they are just becoming more blatant about it. CNN has long been known as the "Clinton News Network", and I think this debate shows just how willing they are to appease her. Its unfortunate, when they are many more candidates much more qualified. This debate showed me nothing about the candidates, and everything about CNN. Its sad for the other candidates, who are much more qualified.

[holdingcompany]

fucking greedy bitch

[ultimate175gm]

Interesting how many times the fact that Hilary is a woman came up in this debate someone should make a video about that. I won't cause I don't know how and I'm lazy. It would be a lie for me to not feel like this debate was leaning towards Hilary.

[oDennisKucinich2008o]

We just saw the mentality of Hilary's Supporters. Dumb and Retarded !!!

War World 3 is upon us and she's thinking about pearls. 0_o

Dennis Kucinich '08!

[saully1966]

The end of an Empire is decided by one single question! "Do you prefer diamonds or pearls?".....WHO ARE WE?????

[Rivaneagle]

what a brilliant and intelligent question. and The depth of the answer was mind blowing.

"the only thing shinning up there." that was funny.

[JobDDT]

She was a plant.

[BethL1959]

Its funny how no one is jumping on the comment the young lady made at the end. When she states, "its the only thing shinning up there."

[jimbeam8686]

That is all I have been thinking about...

The lady has gone on her MySpace and tried to distance herself from the question because of how retarded it made her look, however the comment you highlighted, ""its the only thing shinning up there." tells much more than the question.

[KHW1969]

Such anger my friend. If you are so ashamed of not making it in life,  move to India or Tibet and play the quiet game.

[holdingcompany]

go fuck yourself

[asdffd]

"Such anger my friend."

I think anger and disgust are understandable responses to what has been going on in this country. Most of those who haven't felt this rage are clueless automatons, addicted to garbage like American Idol- ignorant sheep ripe for slaughter.

[asdffd]

I said out loud, "You've got to be fucking kidding me" and just shook my head.

And Richardson accusing Edwards of "class warfare"? Yeah, there's been a brutal class war going on- and it's all been one sided. The rich are taking more and more while the rapidly disappearing middle class has less and less. The Dems are the party of NAFTA and the PeruFTA- no longer true friends of labor, just less shitty than the Pubs.

We're free alright- free to choose which leader gets to take a shit on us.

[mythexposer]

One idiot asking another idiot an idiotic question.

[mythexposer]

CNN should be investigated for this. How dare people boo during a debate when a candidate bring up inconsitencies about Clinton. Who staged this? Why didn't Blitzer follow up Clintons NO answer on illegal licenses after she clearly was for it at the last debate! What's going on here? Who's pulling this fraud. People better wake up- This is a criminal running & no-one is chalenging her.

[Tobias2012]

This young lady now says that ALL the audience questions were staged by CNN. This is pathetic how Hillary continues to control the MSM, and the boos for Edwards and Obama and the rally cheers for Hillary cleraly indicated a stacke pro-Hillary crowd. This type of deceptive politics makes me ill.

[kuriostone]

I think you should read up on this developing story more carefully - this is CNN playing games, not Hillary.

[shrubbersunite]

Damn... you had a chance to ask a pointed and direct question and this dumbass asks a question about fashion... This is why America is going to fall, people like her who pass on their opportunity to use what influence we have left on the system... geez.

*shakes head and walks away*

[Coyotefreak1]

Oh emm g double u tee eff? no0vb!!111!!!!

[soyyosisoy]

She needs to take a poll to give a straight answer on even this question? Maybe after the polls in 1 or 2 weeks she'll answer the question.

[mokalvelli]

People dying, people suffering and what fucking kind of question is that. Diamonds or pearls!?!? How about a turd? Since hillary always talk shit anyways.

[JayAllegro]

If there were going to risk getting caught "planting" another questions I am pretty sure they would make it better than this.

[ReggieHolmquist]

That question was planted.

[jewishcarpenter]

"Oooooooooooh! Shiny! Think I'll waste everyone's time!"

[chefgrad]

Now THAT was gayer than gaymans gaygod.

[Boobalopbop]

It IS a stupid question...but I think the joke she was trying to make was in reference to when Bill Clinton was asked "Boxers or Briefs?" by some girl in an audience on an MTV special he was on when he was running for president. Of course this isn't at all as witty or cool as the boxers question, but at least Hill gave a good answer and hid her annoyance pretty well.

[dafttool]

Excellent referencing the "Boxers or briefs?" question. Good job remembering that. They ARE analogous questions, and years from now IF Hillary is our president, I'm sure some "journalist" will be reminding us of it in the same way they would occassionally bring up the boxers or briefs question.

[jonathanwindham]

That woman should be slapped for asking that question.

[JustLikeIcarus]

planted much?

[eebruce]

How embarrassing to CNN ... the student submitted a range of questions like everyone in the Potemkin Town Hall, and like everyone had to include a "fun question". Her approved question on Yucca Mountain was ruled out by CNN because it had been covered, and they left her with that as the only approved question.

Despicable sham, especially following the news that Senator Clinton has been planting questions in her audience.

[proudTXgal]

not only that, her "staff" (or whatever one wants to call the "planners") got a huge amount of screened Clinton supporters in......

[JobDDT]

Biden is awesome.

[Boobalopbop]

Clinton/Biden 08!!

[intarwebzz]

the only thing lamer than the question was biden chiming in.

now kucinich with a pinky ring; that's politics i can endorse.
