they should both answer questions from an unbiased moderator-   I agree with your frustration -  neither candidate said much of substance- but to be honest, lowest common denominator politics won t  change until the electorate:  really educates itself on how the political system works and demands actual change in areas like campaign reform and term limits (for house and senate),  quits reacting based on emotion and quits putting most energy into 1 or 2 issues important to only themself- but not nec the rest the country

Why do you feel that the moderator was biased?  I thought he was too nice on both of them.  Trump didn't need to deny the Iraq war statement that he did in fact make.  That was a softball question because he was a private citizen when he made the statement: end of story.  But he keep lying because he hadn't prepared for the question.  Hillary got the hardest question of the night about her emails but she didn't get defensive, accepted responsibility for her mistake, and was able to wrap it up really quickly.  She was prepared.   

She pretty much diffused the whole thing without incident. She admitted it was on her and that was the end of it. If Trump was asked a question like that he would have blamed everyone but himself, told flat out lies,  or not even answered the question and turned the whole thing into a fiasco. It seems like he has no skills when it comes to diffusing a situation.
