I understand not wanting to watch the debates. But, I'm sure that I get more enjoyment from Will's version because I've seen the actual comments that he's parodying. I'm not sure if that's enough to make it worthwhile for you, but it's something to consider.

Maybe scanning a transcript would be a good compromise.

First, I am not sure targeting the lives of labour leaders is irrelevant to trade, seems like a handy way to ensure artifically cheap labour to me; an unfair subsidy to firms. But, Will, I am more interested in whether you think there is ever a time where trade should be used to exert influence. What other effective ways would there be in the world to exert political influence besides trade and military force?

Politicians campaign on “independence” because it's easier to sell it to voters that way, not because the sane ones think we'll ever become FULLY independent.

* That's Real American for “effing.”
