schools and in the criminal justice system i work  to make sure that kids with disabilities could get  

a public education something that i care very  much about i have worked with latinos one of my  

first jobs in politics was down in south texas  registering latino citizens to be able to vote  

so i have a deep devotion to use your absolutely  correct word to making sure that every american  

feels like he or she has a place in our country  and i think when you look at the letters that i  

get a lot of people are worried that maybe they  wouldn't have a place in donald trump's america  

they write me and one woman wrote me about her son  felix she adopted him from ethiopia when he was  

a toddler he's 10 years old now this is the only  country he's ever known and he listens to donald  

on tv and he said to his mother one day will  he send me back to ethiopia if he gets elected  

you know children listen to what is being said  to go back to the very very first question and  

there's a lot of fear that in fact teachers  and parents are calling it the trump effect  

bullying is up a lot of people are feeling you  know uneasy a lot of kids are expressing their  

concerns so first and foremost i will do  everything i can to reach out to everybody  

democrats republicans independents people across  our country if you don't vote for me i still  

want to be your president i want to be the best  president i can be for every american secretary  

clinton your two minutes is up i want to follow  up on something that donald trump actually said  

to you uh a comment you made last month you said  that half of donald trump supporters are quote  

deplorables racist sexist homophobic xenophobic  islamophobic you later said you regretted saying  

half you didn't express regret for using the term  deplorable deplorables to mr carter's question  

how can you unite a country if you've written off  tens of millions of americans well within hours i  

i said that i was sorry about the way i i talked  about that because my argument is not with his  

supporters it's with him and with the hateful and  divisive campaign that he has run and the inciting  

of violence at his rallies and the very uh brutal  kinds of comments about not just women but all  

americans all kinds of americans and what he has  said about african americans and latinos about  

muslims about pows about immigrants about people  with disabilities he's never apologized for  

and so i do think that a lot of the tone and tenor  that he has said i'm proud of the campaign that  

bernie sanders and i ran we ran a campaign based  on issues not insults and he is supporting me  

a hundred percent because we talked about what we  wanted to do we might have had some differences  

and we had a lot of debates but we believed  that we could make the country better and i  

was proud of that i'll give you a minute we have  a divided nation we have a very divided nation  

you look at charlotte you look at baltimore you  look at the violence that's taking place in the  

inner cities chicago you take a look at washington  d.c we have a increase in murder within our cities  

the biggest in 45 years we have a divided  nation because people like her and believe me  

she has tremendous hate in her heart and when she  said deplorables she meant it and when she said  

irredeemable they're irredeemable you didn't  mention that but when she said they're  

irredeemable to me that might have been even worse  she said some of them she's got tremendous hatred  

and this country cannot take another four years of  barack obama and that's what you're getting with  

her mr trump let me follow up with you in 2008 you  wrote in one of your books that the most important  

characteristic of a good leader is discipline you  said if a leader doesn't have it quote he or she  

won't be one for very long in the days after the  first debate you sent out a series of tweets from  

3 a.m to 5 a.m including one that told people to  check out his sex tape is that the discipline of  

good news there wasn't check out a sex tape it was  just take a look at the person that she built up  

to be this wonderful uh girl scout who was no  girl scout by the way just so you understand  

when she said three o'clock in the morning take  a look at benghazi she said who's going to answer  

the call at three o'clock in the morning guess  what she didn't answer because when ambassador  

stevens the question is 600 times well she said  she was awake at three o'clock in the morning  

and she also sent a tweet out at three o'clock in  the morning but i won't even mention that but she  

said she'll be awake who's got the famous thing  we're gonna answer our call at three o'clock in  

the morning guess what happened ambassador stevens  ambassador stevens sent 600 requests for help and  

the only one she talked to was sydney blumenthal  who's her friend and not a good guy by the way  

so you know she shouldn't be talking about that  now tweeting happens to be a modern day form of  

communication i mean you can like it or not like  it i have between facebook and twitter i have  

almost 25 million people it's a very effective  way of communication so you can put it down but  

it is a very effective form of communication i'm  not unproud of it to be honest with you secretary  

clinton does mr trump have the discipline to  be a good leader no i'm shocked to hear that  

well it's it's it's not only my  opinion it's the opinion of many others  

national security experts republicans  former republican members of congress  

but it's in part because those of us who have had  the great privilege of seeing this job up close  

and know how difficult it is and it's not  just because i watched my husband take a 300  

billion dollar deficit and turn it into a 200  billion dollar surplus and 23 million new jobs  

were created and incomes went up for everybody  everybody african-american incomes went up 33  

and it's not just because i worked  with george w bush after 9 11.  

and i was very proud that when i told him what  the city needed what we needed to recover he said  

you've got it and he never wavered he stuck with  me and i have worked and i admire president obama  

he inherited the worst financial crisis since the  great depression that was a terrible time for our  

country we have to move along nine million  people secretary clinton five million homes  

were lost secretary clinton in family wealth  was wiped out we are back on the right track  

he would send us back into recession with his  tax plans secretary clinton we are moving to  

an audience question we're almost out of time we  have another mr trump moving 19 29 it is mr trump

thank you very much both of you

we have another audience question beth miller has  a question for both candidates um good evening  

perhaps the most important aspect of  this election is a supreme court justice  

what would you prioritize as the most important  aspect of selecting a supreme court justice  

we begin with your two minutes secretary clinton  thank you well you're right this is one of the  

most important issues in this election um i want  to appoint supreme court justices who understand  

the way the world really works who have real-life  experience who have not just been in a big law  

firm and maybe clerked for a judge and then  gotten on the bench but you know maybe they  

tried some more cases they actually understand  what people are up against because i think the  

current court has gone in the wrong direction  and so i would want to see the supreme court  

reverse citizens united and get dark unaccountable  money out of our politics donald doesn't agree  

with that i would like the supreme court to  understand that voting rights are still a big  

problem in many parts of our country that we don't  always do everything we can to make it possible  

for people of color and older people and young  people to be able to exercise their franchise  

i want a supreme court that will stick with roe  v wade and a woman's right to choose and i want  

a supreme court that will stick with marriage  equality now donald has put forth the names of  

some people that he would consider and among the  ones that he has suggested are people who would  

reverse roe v wade and reverse marriage equality  i think that would be a terrible mistake and would  

take us backwards i want a supreme court that  doesn't always side with corporate interests  

i want a supreme court that understands because  you're wealthy and you can give more money to  

something doesn't mean you have any more rights  or should have any more rights than anybody else  

so i have very clear views about what i want to  see to tend to change the balance on the supreme  

court and i regret deeply that the senate has not  done its job and they have not permitted a vote on  

the person that president obama a highly qualified  person they've not given him a vote to be able to  

have the full complement of nine supreme court  justices i think that was a dereliction of duty  

i hope that they will see their way to doing  it but if i am so fortunate enough as to be  

president i will immediately uh move to make sure  that we fill that we have nine thank you secretary  

clinton work on behalf of our people thank you  you're out of time mr trump justice scalia great  

judge died recently and we have a vacancy i am  looking to appoint judges very much in the mold of  

justice scalia i'm looking for judges  and i've actually picked 20 of them  

so that people would see highly  respected highly thought of and actually  

very beautifully reviewed by just about everybody  but people that will respect the constitution  

of the united states and i think that this is  so important also the second amendment which is  

totally under siege by people like hillary clinton  they'll respect the second amendment and what it  

stands for what it represents so important  to me now hillary mentioned something about  

uh contributions just so you understand so i will  have in my race more than 100 million dollars put  

in of my money meaning i'm not taking all of this  big money from all of these different corporations  

like she's doing what i ask is this so i'm putting  in more than by the time it's finished i'll have  

more than 100 million dollars invested pretty  much self-funding mind we're raising money for  

the republican party and we're doing tremendously  on the small donation 61 average or so i asked  

hillary why doesn't she made 250 million dollars  by being in office she used the power of her  

office to make a lot of money why isn't she  funding not for 100 million but why don't  

you put 10 or 20 or 25 or 30 million dollars into  your own campaign it's 30 million dollars less for  

special interest that will tell you exactly what  to do and it would really i think be a nice sign  

to the american public why aren't you putting some  money in you have a lot of it you've made a lot of  

it because of the fact that you've been in office  you made a lot of it while you were secretary  

of state actually so why aren't you putting  money into your own campaign i'm just curious  

well thank you very much thank you we're going  to get on to one more question the question was  

about the supreme court and i just want to quickly  say very quickly i respect the second amendment  

but i believe there should be comprehensive  background checks and we should close the  

gun show loophole and close the online  loophole we have we have one more question  

as we possibly can we have one more question  from ken bone about uh energy policy ken

what steps will your energy policy take to meet  our energy needs while at the same time remaining  

environmentally friendly and minimizing job  loss for fossil power plant workers mr trump too  

absolutely i think it's such a great question  because energy is under siege by the obama  

administration under absolute siege the epa  environmental protection agency is killing  

these energy companies and foreign companies are  now coming in buying our buying so many of our  

different plants and then rejiggering the plant  so that they can take care of their oil we are  

killing absolutely killing our energy business  in this country now i'm all for alternative  

forms of energy including wind including solar  etc but we need much more than wind and solar  

and you look at our miners hillary clinton  wants to put all the miners out of business  

there is a thing called clean coal coal will  last for a thousand years in this country  

now we have natural gas and so many other things  because of technology we have unbelievable we have  

found over the last seven years we have found  tremendous wealth right under our feet so good  

especially when you have 20 trillion in debt i  will bring our energy companies back they'll be  

able to compete they'll make money they'll pay off  our national debt they'll pay off our tremendous  

budget deficits which are are tremendous but we  are putting our energy companies out of business  

we have to bring back our workers you take a look  at what's happening to steel and the cost of steel  

and china dumping vast amounts of steel all over  the united states which essentially is killing  

our steel workers and our steel companies we have  to guard our energy companies we have to make it  

possible the epa is so restrictive that  they are putting our energy companies  

out of business and all you have to do is  go to a great place like west virginia or  

places like ohio which is phenomenal or places  like pennsylvania and you see what they're doing  

to the people miners and others in the energy  business it's a disgrace your time is up thank you  

absolute disgrace secretary clinton two minutes  well that was very interesting um first of all  

china is illegally dumping steel in the  united states and donald trump is buying it  

to build his buildings putting steel  workers and american steel plants  

out of business that's something that i fought  against as a senator and that i would have a  

a trade prosecutor to make sure that we don't get  taken advantage of by china and steel or anything  

else you know because it sounds like you're in  the business or you're aware of people in the  

business you know that we are now for the first  time ever energy independent we are not dependent  

upon the middle east but the middle east still  controls a lot of the prices so the price of oil  

has been way down and that has had a damaging  effect on a lot of the oil companies right  

we are however producing a lot of natural gas  which serves as a bridge to more renewable fuels  

and i think that's an important uh transition  we've got to remain energy independent it  

gives us much more power and freedom than to be  worried about what goes on in the middle east we
