Debate thoughts

What did you think?

My big takeaway was that Jill Stein seemed like an afterthought; she was the only one who didn't really get to enunciate what it was she stood for, besides not being one of the other three. Still not sure if that's because she wasn't able to do so or because she seemed to get a lot less opportunity to talk in the first half of the debate.

Apparently, Mainstream Media doesn't find Jill Stein to be Worthy. Dan Kennedy: That raises a question: What are debates for?
