		<description>They were definitely scared to debate in a situation where they did not have control of the question. They cant thin on theyre feet very well and were nervous that they might choke up.</description>

		<description>They don&#039;t want to have a debate where they aren&#039;t in control of the questions. &quot;people of color&quot; don&#039;t have the same &quot;agendas&quot; as they do. You wish to have a say in the running of the country, they wish to run it. Sorry, its not so much a question of race, its a question of power. They have it and they don&#039;t wish to share.</description>

		<description>The Republican front runners are troubled by the day to day revelations of the failures in Iraq war. The position is ever so declining. So the Republicans can&#039;t face the nation unless they learn and adopt to stand   clear of the government&#039;s actions.</description>

		<description>what do they care. black voters have a very low turnout and literally about 90% that do vote go democrat every year. do you think democrats would attend a debate at a conservative church group in utah? its pointless to go there. and what issues are there to as you say &quot;people of color&quot; that dont apply to white people?

&quot;so have you seen any Republicans speak to a predominately black, hispanic, native american or asian crowd&quot;

no, and im simply saying that this is not their voting block. as i said before, democrats dont go after religious people much. republicans dont go after minorities because they tend to want lots of social welfare and safetynets and stuff and republican ideology tends to be against that type of spending.. so why go after people that in large numbers dont agree with you?</description>

		<description>Why do the democrats refuse to debate on Fox News. Despite what people think about Fox News, it is the #1 news channel. Why do the Democrats so blatantly disregard middle America? Why do they pander to the black vote, the immigrant vote, the *** vote....

It is very obvious that both sides know who their constituency are. This election I suppose they aren&#039;t afraid to be so obvious about it. I think it shows that NEITHER party is doing anything worthy of being elected. I personally want a president that takes into account ALL Americans.</description>
