Obama Calls on Democrats to Watch Republican Debate
Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Mike Huckabee, Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Chris Christie and John Kasich will appear in the debate.
With Republican candidates kicking off their presidential debate schedule Thursday evening, there is a growing irritation among some Democrats that the Democratic National Committee has yet to schedule even one debate for its 2016 candidates.

The event will allow Obama to draw a sharp contrast with Republicans, many of whom argue some provisions of the 1965 law went too far. The email, incidentally, has a link for a form that recipients can fill out with their names, email addresses and zip codes if they want a debate-watch reminder.
“They’re going to deny all of the progress we’ve made together over these past six years”, he adds.
