Bernie Sanders vs Ted Cruz had a big thread so Martin O'Malley's big debate performance probably deserves one as well. Please use this thread for posting news, videos about the event or for discussions!

Two political heavyweights will go head to head in this year’s Great Debate on Wednesday, April 26. Former democratic Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley and former republican New Hampshire Senator Kelly Ayotte will participate in a debate in the topic of “American Politics: Where We Are and Where We Should Go.”

This year’s debate is hosted by the Penn State College Democrats and College Republicans and sponsored by the Interfraternity Council, Panhellenic Council, the College of the Liberal Arts, Schreyer Honors College, Student Affairs, the Department of Political Science, UPAC, UPUA, and GPSA.

Students will be able to pick up free tickets Friday, April 21, Monday, April 24, and Wednesday, April 26 on the ground floor of the HUB or from Friday to Wednesday in room 310/311 HUB. The debate will be moderated by the McCourtney Institute for Democracy in 100 Thomas at 8:00 pm.

“This American eagle of ours flies best when both its right and its left wing flap,” O’Malley said. He narrated how he had lighthearted “bipartisan pizza nights” as governor to show his human side to his Republican counterparts. Ayotte and O’Malley both said colleges should innovate. O’Malley centered his argument on the claim that college should be affordable for more than the wealthy, while Ayotte said colleges should be held accountable for lowering their costs. O’Malley said global warming offers a good business opportunity, and he wants the United States to be fully energy renewable by 2050.

Ayotte briefly praised his “excellent” work, while O’Malley ensued in a short, fierce speech about his disapproval. “I have never known in the history of the presidency,” O’Malley said, “a doctrine of foreign policy that said utter unpredictability, incompetence, white supremacists running the national security administration and a hot-headed, quick-tempered [President] who tweets at 2 a.m. is a way to run a dependable [government] for a free people.”

As for his personal future, there is a possibility that he will appear in the next presidential campaign.
I might be crazy enough to run again,” O’Malley said, being met with loud applause and cheers. “I accept your nomination.”
