The GOP Presidential Debate on CNN

Now, I typically try to refrain from bias and attempt to provide a fair view on topics, but the following quick synopsis of the GOP debate on CNN may contain bias.

After watching the Undercard debate and the primary debate, I noticed one major talking point throughout: war. Even with questions more unrelated to war, it would be brought back up. Also, foreign policy was brought up numerous times, with what seemed to be more than half the of the debate. Now, foreign policy is important, but currently, we face many domestic issues, which were hardly brought up. The issues that were brought up, such as Planned Parenthood, were highly erroneous in their discussions over it. With not a single mention of other issues, such as poverty not mentioned.

What we witnessed here, was yet another debacle of a debate for those concerned with legitimate issues. Hopefully later debates can address this issue, but the focus and push on war by the Republican presidential hopefuls is very concerning.
