Third Democrats Debate: What to Expect on Saturday Night

The third of the six debates of the Democratic Party scheduled to take place on Saturday, December 19, in 20: 00 EST. They will be held at St. Anselm College in Mancaster, New Hampshire. For the broadcast responsible channel ABC.

Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley will take part in the discussion. The third debate, like the previous ones, takes place on weekends, when the least people want to see them.

Recently, the Democratic Party is being lost against the background of loud statements by Republicans. The decision of the National Committee of Democrats to schedule a debate on the Saturday before Christmas is probably a strategic move. Democrats are trying to stay in the shadows and facilitate the path of Hillary Clinton to the nomination.

As Donald Trump increasingly appears on television and dominates newspaper headlines, Hillary Clinton, the Democratic favorite, is finding it harder to attract audience attention.

After the attacks in Paris и San bernardino Bernie Sanders is likely to recall how he and Clinton are different in foreign policy.

This is important because foreign policy is perhaps the only area where the rivals differ significantly. Hillary Clinton differs from other Democrats in her support for aggressive intervention abroad. Sanders voted against the Iraq War in 2002 (unlike Clinton) and is skeptical about the use of force.

The other Democratic candidate, Martin O'Malley, has less experience in foreign policy, so he shouldn't be expected to make big statements citing his experience.

Previously "Forum" analyzed the course of the fifth Republican debate, where five candidates became the “winners”: Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush and Chris Christie.
