You say al gore is the only one that has disagreed with a republicans views but you only say he rolled his eyes and had his statements he made across and it made people angry? You don't know how Joe biden or Barack Obama alienates people but al gore does give me a break fr.
@dench2695 yeah, it's kind of ridiculous to me how quickly people equate the two. Neither is particularly desirable, but one is WAY worse than the other. And before a MAGA troll decides to fill in the blanks for me, Trump is the worse one 👍
Joe Biden was at least courteous in the vice presidential debate with Sarah palin. She exposed herself as a political airhead without any help from joe. I was relieved when he told trump “shut up, man!” He was saying what many of us were thinking
Nobody would ever win an election if they told the truth. It's a sad reality, but it's true. The normie masses don't want to hear the truth, they want a bunch of empty promises. If one guy says he's gonna fix everything and make your life better, and the other guy says well I don't know, I'll do the best I can, but there's only so much one person can do in 4 years (honesty), the guy who made all the big empty promises wins, 100% of the time.
Hillary Clinton: “It’s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump isn’t in charge of the law in our country.” Donald Trump: “Cause you’d be in jail.” I’m surprised that one didn’t make the list!😂
That Rick Perry fail is my favorite. Immediately sunk his candidacy. When he tried to run again, they made him wear glasses to seem more intelligent 😂😂😂
"Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy." - Lloyd Bentsen to Dan Quayle, 1988 US Vice-Presidential debate
Gerald Ford didn’t technically drift from the facts, he was actually explaining US policy towards Eastern Europe at the time by stating Eastern Europe had no right to be dominated by the Soviets and shouldn’t be considered as such. However, probably a bad choice of words.
I watched part of the Kennedy-Nixon debate in my government class. My teacher also pointed out that Nixon had been discharged from the hospital prior to the debate, adding to his pale appearance.
@@jesseincognito. than an old man with dementia??? Of course. Imagine saying “My Great Grandfather is running for President” you’d be blown away by that retardation
Bernard Shaw's question to Michael Dukakis was the most inappropriate and targeted question in a Presidential debate. That made me so upset. Worst presidential debates would've been Gore/Bush.
I didn’t vote for Michael Dukakis but I agree that question was inappropriate and should not have been asked. It reminds me of a reporter asking Betty ford how she would feel about her 17 year old daughter having an affair. When dealing with a minor child that question should not have been asked. And the same with asking Obama how he would feel if his 8 and 10 year old daughters had abortions. And a reporter confronting a visibly distressed emelio Estefan outside his wife’s operating room. You’re her band leader What are you going to do if she doesn’t dance again? All those reporters should have been fired by their news agencies
Saying John McCain was disrespectful for one thing is absurd because he is still one of if not the most respectful and respectable people to ever run for president.
And having a convervative majority on the Supreme Court didn’t hurt either. But despite this Al gore should have been able to win by a decisive margin because he was the better prepared candidate. It never should have come down to one state and maybe some maneuvering by jeb bush. Why didn’t he? Al gore is why. He underestimated his opponent and then became visibly irritated when the debate began to go sideways for him. Not a good look on prime time television
And the Cincinnati reds should have been able to decisively pound the New York Mets in the 1973 pennant race because they were the much stronger team. Again they underestimated their opponent (the Mets pitching strength). They ridiculed the Mets and insulted their wives and so on until it became personal. Then they talked their way into a loss they should have won
You missed the best part of the Bush Gore debate. When Gore left the podium to walk over to Bush and Bush brushed him off saying "I'll be with you in a minute." and Gore just stood there. He attempted a power move and was denied.
Kind of like jimmy carter chasing Ted Kennedy around the stage at the democratic convention, looking for a power move that never came- for either of them
Top 10 times Producers screwed over their own films. One of the most recent ones that I could name is whoever thought it was a good idea to release a Dracula movie (Last voyage of the Demeter) during the summer, let alone against Barbie and Oppenheimer.
It’s insane to think that anyone ever thought the McCain/Obama moment was disrespectful. They were by FAR the two most respectful candidates towards each other that we’ve had in a long time
The "you'll be in jail" by trump Was the greatest line dropped against Clinton. I get not wanting to make trump look good but not including it is shameful
Democrats are doing nothing but making Trump look good. There is not one poll Trump isn't leading Biden in. And every time they charge President Trump. His poll numbers with undecided voters goes up. It is about time that people are seeing it for what it is.
The first Trump/ Biden debate was absolutely pathetic on both sides. I expect the same thing in this upcoming " conditional" debate. When are we going to see independent moderators versus the obvious bias coming from the the left and right media surrogates? I would rather see a bunch of random questions coming from the general public not these propaganda surrogates from each side of the political aisle.
The fact the entire debate didn't come to a screeching halt until he was asked to clarify/retract that statement is one of the reasons we're in such a fucked up situation imo Them "standing back and standing by" led us to January 6th and the almost total overthrow of our democracy
To be fair, Nixon had hurt his knee and been hospitalized not long before the televised debate with Kennedy, so he was probably still recovering from that.
Kennedy had been a PT boat captain and US Senator several years before becoming POTUS and came from a fairly experienced political family even then. He was also a Rep for several years.
I watched the Trump vs Biden debate in 2020. To say it was a “hot mess” would be quite an understatement. In my mind, that debate coupled with Trump’s 2020 election loss (and his actions after losing the election), put us on the road to January 6th, 2021.
The Late Night Debate on the 1984 nuclear war film Threads had political advisors and professors and military specialists talking normally and politely. The 2020 Presidential debate was pathetic to watch.
I would have put "Please Proceed" on this list as well. I'm talking about 2012, when President Obama was debating Mitt Romney, and Romney just knew he had a gotcha question - he even had this smug look on his face. President Obama's response.... "Please proceed..." He let him undo himself with his own words.
I'll never understand why people want empathy as a major characteristic in a president. Id rather then be competent, and strong. The opposite of what we have now.
@ethanweeter2732 after you meet the other things, yes. But empathy doesn't mean shit if you're so weak that other countries don't take you seriously. If Biden told Netanyahu right now to stop the attacks in Gaza, Netanyahu would just laugh and do it anyway.
Dan Quayle comparing his age and experience to jack kennedy was like apples to oranges. Kennedy was by no means inexperienced when he ran for president. It was his rumored lifestyle that was a cause for concern. His own party wrote him off as a playboy and a lightweight senator Sure all politicians want to emulate Kennedys charisma but be careful what you wish for
If you were impartial you'd at least give Trump's "Because you'd be in jail" quip when Hillary said he "shouldn't be in charge of the law in our country" an honourable mention. Unlike many of these it likely did have a significant impact upon his victory in 2016.

The liberal media took Gerald fords comments on Eastern Europe out of context. If you listen to the entire debate and not just the sound bites, Ford was saying we must identify the more independent Eastern European counties and treat them as independent countries. Then they will think of themselves as independent. And isn’t that what eventually happened in Poland after the foreign policy challenged carter left office? Ford was deserving of another term in office. The Republican Party would be much better off today with an elder statesman like Gerald ford
Not really. Ford pardoned Nixon. That was a mistake. He did get out of Vietnam though, something that should have been respected more. But pardoning Nixon and never having been elected to either office of VPOTUS or POTUS hurt him.
That time Politicians were supposed to be civil and friendly if Trump did that in 2000 he would have lost by a landslide. Gore was irritating for people that time unlike George, who was not hard on policies but had an approachable demeanour.
I can see a rematch of Trump just running his mouth so that Biden doesn’t say anything and that shows he doesn’t care about the country just himself. The only way to make these debates have any meaning is to put normal everyday Americans on stage so they can throw in their ideas and make it a test to the ones running to see if they are listening and can move with modern times.
Regardless of the McCain vs obama presidency...i THINK McCain..threw the election because we NEVER had a black president EVER and this woulda pissed alot of racists off XD
The liberal bias here is ludicrous. I expected some but damn. Half of these had zero impact on the campaigns and the commentary of some is just factually wrong. Like the Ford one (basically lost due to 1 state and despite a massive amount of baggage due to Watergate and Reagan running against him in primaries) where he was correct on Yugoslavia as it co-founded the non-aligned movement and at that time Romania too was warming to the West while Albania was kinda outlier. Anywho could have easily done 5/5 Republican/Democrat to appear objective. Mondale, Kerry, Gore, Humphrey had some gems.
it’s unwise to underestimate your opponent. When you disrespect him it gives him an edge and the fight becomes personal. Jimmy carter thought he was a whole lot smarter than Ronald Reagan. He expected some foolish old man bumbling and stumbling around putting countries on the wrong continents. He was caught off guard when Reagan had prepared for the debate and he was visibly irritated. Then he was no match for the Reagan charisma
No it doesn’t Look at Donald trump. Although I liked Ronald Reagan personally I voted for Howard baker in the primary. He would have been a good president but lacking in charisma. In the waning days of the Reagan administration when he may have had the onset of Alzheimer’s Howard baker was brought in as chief of staff. From then on Howard baker ran the White House. Why didn’t we just elect Howard baker?@@mrhumble2937
Trump interrupting Biden bunch of times should've been #1. Trump was especially obnoxious in that debate. Kerry referencing Cheney's daughter regarding gay marriage should've been on the list.
