I think CNN could end the farce (not that I'm sure I want them to. . . )

Ask a bunch of policy heavy questions.. and ask the real candidates first.. If they have 1/2 a brain in their heads, they'll answer with very specific policy points (that I of course will disagree with completely) and THEN ask the Donald the same question.

Those who have held elective office and are more deeply conversant in policy. It's the specificity of the reply that I'm looking for because I know the donald cannot compete on that score.
