I mean it, some of these questions have made my cry. Some of them are funny, and some are SO hard and real that it is stunning.

This is the ONLY way to do a debate, all of the candidates are almost stupefied by how real these questions are...

I love it!

2. The deal is, we the people, can ask questions those paid moderators
would never be able to ask. It's outrageous, interesting, and we're seeing quite a bit of personality, from the candidates and the youtubers. Dare I say it, it's entertaining, not a bore to watch!

6. I agree..
too much time was wasted on repetitive and impertinent issues. slavery was abolished a century ago, so why ask about reparations?

shouldn't that money be used for better purposes..like universal healthcare, debt reduction, and keeping Social Security solvent?

I think too many of the questions were on issues that don't effect the average voter, while very little time was left for each candidate to answer the questions on more relevant issues.

5. That was great
I really enjoyed that format, I was not planning to watch the RePublics but I just might. Should be fun watching the look on their faces when Joe six pack asks them, um, well lets just say an embarrassing question if CNN allows it.
