You can ask SIX QUESTIONS...

...of the candidates. They spend 15 minutes on each question? Seems limiting...

MY SIX QUESTIONS (I wonder if any will be asked...)

"What does the phrase 'A well-regulated militia' mean to you?"

"What is your opponent's greatest foreign policy strength?"

"What is your greatest area of weakness - how will you improve yourself in this area?"

"How do you plan on defending the equal rights of LGBT citizens - for example, in marriage or selling a pizza?"

"How are a Muslim, Christian and/or Atheist's 'freedom of religion' rights the same - and how are they different?"

"Many citizens are confused by the term 'Black Lives Matter' - please explain this term for the American people."

... of the details. Trump will have to stand there and repeat himself and wander off into non-answers.

Donald, other than two Corinthians or John 3:16, name any two bible verses and explain how they illuminate your decision making and cite examples for each.

Donald, please explain what YOU believe would happen to Secretary Clinton if the Secret Service detail were to disarm. Do you wish for bodily harm to the agents or to your opponent and why?

Donald, after 3 marriages and countless insensitive remarks to and about women, how does your love of the bible inform you on the eternal consequences of your infidelity? Beat in mind, this question is for you and not former President Clinton...

Donald, from your background in TV, what qualities have you acquired that will assist you in handling worldwide crises?

Donald, why are so much of an asshole? Please proceed Mr. Trump...

Donald, what do feel about swastikas and Pepe the frog imagery being used in or around your campaign? Will that cause you to rebuke your alt-right follower
s or do you tacitly agree with them?

Donald, there are rumors that you will not release your tax returns, as all candidates since 1960 have done, because there might be something in them that doesn't measure up, that is a little short, that leaves people less than satisfied. Are you willing to release those returns now, or are your preternaturally tiny hands struggling to reach the "authorize" button to release them?

(I would DIE laughing if Clinton made a wry comment in any of her answers about the "size" of ANYTHING related to the Talking Yam not "measuring up" or "coming in a little short of expectations"...the idiot would not be able to compose himself and the detonation on live TV would be instant replay worthy.)
