Bernie Sanders wants Hillary Clinton to prove her Brooklyn values — with a debate.

The Sanders campaign abruptly challenged Clinton to debate in the borough, where Sanders grew up and where Clinton has her campaign headquarters.

The request came as the neck-and-neck Democratic presidential contenders are figuring out where to hold their upcoming debates.

1. Love that idea

2. I don't know why a building anywhere makes a difference

Maybe different audience to clap?

4. Most of the debate audience is media.

For the dem debate in Milw then venue sits around 700. Over 300 of those seats will be for media

I think the campaigns get to give away tickets for some number of seats, which I suspect is mostly about assuring appropriate crowd noise for the media.

8. Well if the location doesn't make any difference...

...then why did Clinton propose having one of the debates in Flint, Michigan?

Can't have it both ways.

3. Will she be able to affect a Brooklyn accent in time?

6. The more face to face meet-ups the two of them have- the better for ALL Americans.

I think they should meet-up every week. I don't care where they meet, someones house with a big yard is fine. They could 'meet' in a online video chatroom, that's almost cost-free.

Would be terrifying to republicans if they invited some of them too. Republicans would have to suffer the media coverage when they were to afraid to attend any, real-live in public debates.
