2007 NH Democratic Presidential Debate (Part 20)

IMPORTANT: My TV Tuner cut out for the last part of this clip, so here's a transcript of what you missed:

BLITZER: Senator Biden, your top priority in the first 100 days?

BIDEN: I would end the war in Iraq and immediately move to defuse the possible war in Iran and immediately defuse what's going on, on the Korean Peninsula.

They're the three most important things that the next president is going to have to deal with.

And by the way, when power is handed from this president to the next, the next president is going to be left with no margin for error. They better be smarter than their advisers.

BLITZER: Congressman Kucinich, what would be your top priority?

KUCINICH: Keep in mind, we could stop that war in Iraq now by not providing any funding. But what I intend to do is to be a president who helps to reshape the world for peace -- to work with all the leaders of the world in getting rid of all nuclear weapons, rejecting policies that create war as an instrument of diplomacy, making sure that we cause the nations of the world to come together for fair trade, cancel NAFTA, cancel the WTO, go back to bilateral trade conditioned on workers rights and human rights, create a not- for-profit health care system (inaudible) a Congress.

BLITZER: Very quickly, Senator Gravel and then Senator Dodd, but very quickly: Your top priority?

GRAVEL: Top priority is to turn to these people and say they are part of the leadership right now in the Congress. They could end the war if they want to. All they've got to do is show the leadership and they will...

(CROSSTALK)

BLITZER: Senator Dodd, very quickly. We've got five seconds.

DODD: Well, I'd kind of restore the constitutional rights in our country. This administration has done great damage to them. I would do that on the first day. I wouldn't wait 100 days on those issues.

BLITZER: We've got to leave it right there. We're going to leave it right there. This brings to an end our debate. Be sure to join us Tuesday right here on this same stage for a debate involving the Republican candidates for president of the United States.

Our next Democratic debate, by the way, will be a revolutionary approach to campaign debates. It will be held on July 23 from Charleston, South Carolina, in partnership with YouTube and Google. You're going to want to see that debate as well.

This is part 20 of the 2008 Democratic Presidential Debate held in New Hampshire on June 3, 2007.

[kevinal]

Well at least Obama did speak the truth here. Nothing has change!

[NYJared04]

No he is not the one. Obama has already waged the war more effectively. He doesn't want to end it at all. He's just picking up where George Bush left off.

He has very much refined his positions on NAFTA, gun control, Iraq, the Patriot Act, FISA, healthcare, and Iran to become a Bush clone.

dead elephant flogged.

[SeventiesPopRock]

Hillary Clinton has already lost the Democratic Primary in pledged delegates. However, the Clintons have no intentions of conceding. They are going to try and steal the election through the Super delegates. As a result of the Clintons smear tactics against Obama, John McCain now leads both Clinton, and Obama in most national polls.

The Clintons are willing to destroy the Democratic Party for the sake of power. The Clintons philosophy is,

"If we can't win it, Obama won't either!"

[DASHDOT2]

hillary needs to talk about Whitewater - TravelGate - Dubai Port Deal - The Kaplan Connection

[headbangfever]

how do you know that?

[Devanyhavock]

Obama gets advice from a member of the Black Power movement...a man who hates whites and Jews... how could anyone what to have a man who gets his advice from someone to be president of a free country?!

And Krudup do a little research before you start tossing around your bigotry and lies.
