conveying information or responding to questions not so much. for hillary i would say be prepared for attacks because in her past debates she hasn't really been attacked in the same ad hominem sense that donald trump excels at. any attempts to sort of dodge questions will be pretty transparent. for donald trump i would say try to make yourself more personable and more relatable. because in the past he's come off as sort of a radial saying these wild things. and now if he can tone it down a little to court the moderate popa success with that. you really do need to watch out for just lapsing into any sort i hope it's a substantive debate. but i really just like if we can keep it down to the issues and what each candidate's gonna do for america. and not necessarily degrading the other candidate. do you think we're gonna see that? no, no i don't expect that at all. i'm sorry to say. right now we are working on all-new stories for 13 action
