debaters in myanmar. myat believes this is a vital skill which will helthem fac challenges in life, allowing them to think of the negative and positive sides of any argument, and to choose wisely for themselves. in november 2015, most of these young debaters used their newly acquired knowledge to cast their ballots in myanmar's first national election since president thein sein's government took over in 2011. after tallying votes, aung san suu ky's national league for democracy party won a landslide victory, but under the new constitution passed in 2008, she's barred from taking up the presidency. announcer: for myanmar's young debaters, there's now a chan to useheir skis to build a ue democcy. announcer: aung says his mother is very proud of his accomplishments and has never regretted the sacrifice she made by moving to mandalay. his goal is to share his knowledge and experience with the next generation, who will help build a better myanmar.

>> this is a grassroots debate. we had hundreds of party activists, regular people from across the state, to cheer on their favorite campaign. nigel: is it still anyone's games? >> we have a number of candidates doing really well. we saw them with detailed plans how we get this country working again. it is wide open. nigel: thank you very much. carol and michael, back to you. coming up, we hear from the democrats. michael: the first-in-the-south primary is less than a week away. very much a gateway vote and it is soon. carol: the gop primary happens on saturday, february 20. followed by the democratic primary a week later on february 27. in georgia both primaries are on both primaries are on tuesday, march 15. carol: hundreds of republican supporters gathered outside the peace center throughout the day. michael: many of thehehave strong opinions on issues affecting us. wyff news 4's corey davis has been speaking with voters. right now he's live and local in downtown greenville. corey? corey: tonight we had great in-d

i expect it to be a lively debate. rk: the polling in this race shows senators sanders with a huge lead. where do have him right now? joel: we have got ground to make up your you know i do not talk about polls. you know what i think about public polls. win the? she still primary joel: if you look at the exit polls from 2008, 48% made up their mind in the last -- mark: can she still win numerically? was a big008, there spike in iowa. she was down by 13 points. i can talk about that -- we had her down 13 points late in the week and by tuesday, she had one in new hampshire. that is how fluid it is. in part, i think that is because the rules here allowing independents to go to either primary they want to go to, it gets hard to predict. even at the end, some of the independent voters can choose to go, even though they may prefer one of the democrats, i'm going to vote in the republican primary. john: given that you are behind and there is a chance you might finish wall behind, is there a margin by which you all can see this

we'll have a debate about what kind of justice should replace scalia. the voters are going to get to vote for a new president. i think this will be part of the calculus calculus. i think we should wait until after november before we move forward on confirming any justice to the supreme court. the president can nominate whoever he wants. act. that is pretty clear. so we can keep debating it but we're not moving forward. >> ronald reagan named anthony kennedy to the supreme court in november of his seventh year. and kennedy was actually year. november is okay but three months later is over the line? >> yeah. again, i mean, i don't -- it doesn't really matter what they've done, reagan did in '87. it was '87 whether he nominated him. obviously, it was early in the year. this is november, october, september of last year where the president had more than a year left in office than perhaps this will be a different discussion. but he now has basically about 11 months and 10 1/2 months left in office. we have an election coming up. there will be a debate over wha

debate there. i believe it should be between a man and a woman. i will engage in that debate but the elected representatives will decide it. it does not belong at the federal court and that should be overturned. a president cannot overturn a supreme court decision. >> senator, as you know all too well a big story going into last night was your shaky performance in the debate in new hampshire. do you think that last night you undid the damage from that debate? should people would suddenly began to worry, is this the gay we want to put up in the general election against the democratic nominee have you eased those concerns? >> chris, if you followed it, you have, and you have been part of two of them, we have had nine debates and in 8.75 debate i have done well according to everyone. i had a bad answer to questions obviously because the voters of new hampshire opine that way and i took responsibility. it happened. i am outside my debate performances consistently and again last night, and here is the key, if i am the nominee i look forward to debating

and democrats are spinning their responses from a debate last night. florida is now calling a health emergency for the zika virus. and world health officials are concerned that the global spread will continue. a cedar rapids woman is one of thousands nationwide who have had problems with the birth control essure. they're going as far as major surgery to remove the device. and students at the university of iowa are getting ready to dance for 24 hours straight to raise money for kids with cancer at the annual dance marathon. you're watching kcrg-tv9. now, from your 24 hour news first, meteorologis t kaj o'mara has your first alert forecast, kaj... we are planning on a decent friday all across the area with a typical february chill and a steady increase in clouds. a weak area of low pressure is still set to drift across the area this evening and it'll likely squeeze some snow showers out. most areas will likely only see a trace to half inch . we'll start the weekend off right on saturday with highs well up into the 30s and a decent amount of sunshine as w

i think it's good, we need a debate. i was against a coronation.is exciting because it really is encouraging people to think outside of the box. we have people that are excited about the idea of a more dramatic transformation of the united states. a discussion unlike anything we've had. not even in the obama first election was there this extensive discussion. so i think that there is good. i think that the problem -- >> not only good as a debate is always good -- >> right. >> -- but is it good to have two heavy hitters fighting over black votes? >> absolutely! because all too often we get taken for granted. latinos get taken for granted. this is basically saying no you can't take these groups for granted. and that is exciting, raze. and sexciting, ray.this needs t. what's happening during this endorsement gain, when the political differences become personalized, when you start having innuendo, suggest something about the intention of one of the other candidates this becomes very, very dangerous and i think the people have to step back. we have to f

that is why we have seen a debate, a surreal debate among all the state of emergency, serious measures to tackle terrorism. this issue of citizenship, which would concern may be a dozen terrorist convicts in a dozen years, because this would be after they are in prison. it is really becoming an issue. we see the change because francois hollande, when he first announced this, surprising everyone just after the terrorist attacks, said it would be for dual nationals. now the prime minister has said the government would support a proposal to strip citizenship from all french nationals -- dual nationals, single nationals, those who were born here, those who acquired french citizenship -- because you cannot discriminate. you are either french or you are not french. the problem is that you could render someone stateless, and you are not supposed to do this. this is just the beginning of the debate. it is going to last a few days. it could be longer than that. we will have to see what compromise will come of this in the end. this is the support the government is seeking. molly: so there is no

debates. as abc had a solid debate, i thought, everybody was buzzing about the botch introductions. that created a lot of talk in social media. you commented on twitter. rachael maddow doing the following after the debate was over. play that tape. >> here she is embracing the democrats. your thoughts? >> my thought about that was first thing is i've never seen a moderator do that before that i can remember. and people say about her that she's an extremely warm personable person and this is the kind of thing she does. but when we are involved in a debate, we journalists, we are acting a bit like the players in a trial before the court of public opinion. and, you know, advocates play a certain role, whatever the relationship with each other and with the judge outside the courtroom is set aside and their professional discipline comes into play. you maintain a certain proper distance as a journalist from the people you're covering, especially in the crucible of a debate. and whether she runs up and hugs these people afterwards, it conveys the impression that she loves them both and think

so if i could have a guarantee and knew who the questioners were and if the framework for the debate was fair, i would have no objection. >> well, i'll take that as a definite maybe. much for coming on. please come back, sir. >> okay. thank you very much, chris. >>> and then there is hillary clinton n a clinton. in a debate last month she was asked what she would do as president to bring the country together. >> i think it's an important point the president made in his state of the union. here's what i would say, i will go anywhere to meet with anyone at any time to find common ground. >> well, once again this week, clinton turned down our request to speak to us and the millions of who you watch this program just as she has every week in this campaign. we'll keep trying for an interview and a debate. >>> up next, we bring back our sunday group to discuss the republican debate last night and turned tight and tough.ro are j inrsed wh p c. we i of u l'subcaneba a yo baffrt dapnd heke m bckdnreth cam th ac peopl allt eass derusay thatd ese t he adlyhemptoccha ire l ma, he's ,aysisd oraout

we're talking about a presidential debate. we're talking about electing a president and we're not talking about peoples' real policies. what do they believe? why do they believe that? don't people deserve to know that? >> i would think people deserve to know that. a lot of time spent on obamacare. what is your plan? what is the best solution for health care going forward under president carson? >> i think the key is to have something controlled by patients and providers, minimize the role of the insurance carriers and the way to do that and the account which is like a health savings account and we used the same money and the shift the money within their family gives them flexibility to cover the vast amount of things that are going to happen to you. like a health savings account but without bureaucrats. then, you have ability to to have catastrophic health care but it's going to cost you less money. because the only thing coming out of that is your catastrophic health care. how often do you have that? >> and creates competition

clinton may have dodged a bullet in last night's debate. e'll look at why she wasn't asked a single question about that investigation just mentioned. and the one into the clinton foundation. we'll ask howie curts whether clinton's connections to one oh of the moderators could be to blame. >> given what you and senator sanders are posing to expand sanders are posing to expand it takes a lot of work... to run this business. sanders are posing to expand i'm on the move all day long... and sometimes, i just don't eat the way i should. so i drink boost to get the nutrition that i'm missing. boost complete nutritional drink has 26 essential vitamins and minerals, including calcium and vitamin d to support strong bones and 10 grams of protein to help maintain muscle. all with a great taste. i don't plan on slowing down any time soon. stay strong. stay active with boost. now try new boost® compact and 100 calories. parking is hard to find. seems like everyone drives. and those who do should switch to geico because you could save hundreds on car insu

it's a debate. that's what is supposed to happen. got into it a little bit back and forth but instead of personal attacks, which is mostly what people remember from the republican debate, what they remember from ours are their differences and where they agreed on national security, health care, the economy, on continues to create jobs. that's what the voters want to happy and it's the respect the voters deserve from their candidates for president. >> did you think there was enough contrast to give democratic voter at real choice between two candidates? >> i think there was certainly contrast. but again, our differences between these two candidates are not on the goals, they're on the approaches. and they agree on a whole lot. and where they differ, it's on approach. >> i do want to ask you really quickly, our panel has some questions for you, but the super delegate process is getting attention now. this would give hillary clinton an advantage. what do you say to some voters, especially some of the young folks who say maybe the think

>> it was a good debate. conversation you haven't seen because of you know who not being there. >> why are people not saying donald trump's name tonight? >> he's not there. >> no, i think tonight they're right before the caucuses. people are looking at how candidates are feeling and you have a sense of who felt like they're doing well and who felt like they're not doing that well. >> what did you think, mark? >> this is amazing. this is the campaign we're supposed to have before donald trump jumped in and offended everythi everything. we were debating serious, substantive issues that might actual happen. >> that is a fascinating observation. we had our two outlines. until the last minute, you know, people were saying he might show up. you've got to be prepared. it would have looked different and issues would have felt very different. and if he had been there, because of the issues injected into the campaign. do you think the republicans benefit, though? >> i think absolutely. we'll find out. the big winner or

a nerve? >> this debate is exposed what is a feminism generation gap.ght i said in the middle of this gaffe, for her i saw an older lady who had the signature line that she was out of the public eye for a while, and resurrecting it for a few laughs and does not see the media storm. for younger women, seeing this for the first time, they said this is a reprimand and not only a reprimand but in terms of the comments insulting my intelligence. since hillary clinton campaign, she has built the campaign around running on women's issues in a way she does not. she thought they are saying what they really thing that we should vote for her because she is a reminder would. that is not what they were saying. >> did you run into albright? >> i did and she had really legitimate reasons for coining that phrase and she has been through the mill and she share add little bit of that with me and at that time, really, did not see the harm in making a little quip. >> i have seen it criticized even by liberators. it is insulting to suggest that women -- clearly not the mome
