These speech writers are getting paid too much.
Politico (9/13/19) reports: "The third Democratic debate brought the top-polling candidates together on stage for the first time. And those candidates, in turn, brought some of the most cringe-inducing lines of this presidential cycle. While politicians are rarely without a corny zinger at the ready, Thursday’s debate appeared more chock full of them than normal. Here are some of the buzziest — for better or worse — one-liners of the third debate...In one viral exchange about education, Biden suggested a novel idea to help students from less affluent areas. 'Play the radio, make sure the television — the, excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night, the phone — make sure that kids hear words. A kid coming from a very poor school — a very poor background will hear 4 million words fewer spoken by the time we get there.' Asked by moderator Jorge Ramos about whether Booker would encourage Americans to adopt his vegan diet to fight climate change, the New Jersey senator appeared genuinely surprised by the question. 'Um, you know, first of all, I want to say: No. Actually I want to translate that into Spanish: No.'"

Maybe instead of 3 hours of grandstanding they should watch 3 minutes of School House Rock.
One News Now (9/12/19) reports: "Anyone keeping up with the Democratic Party knows the presidential contenders claim to embrace windmills and solar power, and say they despise fossil fuels and so-called 'fracking.' Several candidates, in fact, are vowing to ban fracking if voters put them in the White House. 'They're going to have a little bit of trouble doing that,' responds Thomas Pyle at American Energy Alliance (AEA). 'They're going to run into this thing called the Constitution.' Fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, is the injection of fluid into shale beds at high pressure in order to free up petroleum resources such as oil or natural gas."

"We don’t have to accept less. We’ve experienced economic freedom and a better quality of life because of our abundance of affordable, reliable energy resources."
