Presidential debates show which party has people’s interests in mind

To summarize, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton had a debate about their plans to deal with universal health insurance, gun control and immigration.

Donald Trump and Ted Cruz continue their harangue about personalities and where Cruz was born.

Interesting. Now which one should we give a damn about? Which one is focused on the best interests of the people they wish to serve? Gee ... this is a tough one.
