Americans are bracing for the nation's biggest political debate since the slugfests of 2016, a two-night showdown beginning Wednesday with 20 Democrats vying for a breakout moment that could showcase their talents, or see them stumble on the world stage.
Like most of his rivals, Biden spent much of last weekend sharpening his message ahead of the debate by wooing residents of early-voting South Carolina."But here's the deal: whomever the Democratic nominee is, we have to stay together and elect a Democrat president of the United States." Warren, polling third, will take center stage on the first night at 9:00 pm , inheriting a prime spot to make her case as she debates ex-congressman Beto O'Rourke, senators Cory Booker and Amy Klobuchar, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and former San Antonio mayor Julian Castro, each of whom is trying to breathe new life into their campaigns.
He has pledged to use the debate as a platform to emphasize his support for universal healthcare, his opposition to the Iraq war and to"disastrous trade agreements." In short, he will emphasize his differences with rival Biden. The comments earned rebukes from rivals Booker and Harris, the two prominent African Americans in the race.
Some lesser known non-politician candidates could spark interest including entrepreneur and automation soothsayer Andrew Yang.
