Answers:

  • Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?
    Virginia and North Carolina
  • What message will you emphasize as you accept your party's nomination for President of the United States?
    Let's all come together -- women, Hispanics, Muslims, moderates, college students, military veterans, African-Americans -- to defeat Donald Trump!
  • Will you give Bernie Sanders a prime speaking slot at the Democratic Convention?
    We have no idea what Bernie Sanders might say, and the last thing we need is some kind of distraction before my acceptance speech.
  • Barack Obama is looking to you for pointers on the content of his convention speech, to make sure it is congruent with your campaign strategy. What should he emphasize?
    Obama should focus on Donald Trump, and the danger that he represents for the future of our country.
  • To what extent will you attack Donald Trump for the rhetoric he has used about Mexicans, Muslims, women, and other groups?
    I am going to be pretty explicit in calling out the rhetoric and demagoguery of Donald Trump throughout this election.
  • To what extent will you attack Donald Trump for the controversy surrounding Trump University?
    We have a civil case in progress which will draw plenty of attention to this matter. I have plenty of other things to attack Donald Trump over.
  • What message will you emphasize about the political views of Donald Trump on economic and budget issues?
    Free trade and globalization have been a huge driver of economic growth over the past 25 years.
  • Would you consider making a pledge to, if elected, serve a single term as President?
    That's absurd. Of course not.
  • To what extent will you make an increase in the minimum wage a key part of your campaign? Do you stand by your commitment to $12/hour?
    This is part of my platform, but it won't be a central part of my campaign speeches.
  • Are you still opposed to the Trans-Pacific Partnership? Would you pursue further trade agreements as President?
    I would encourage Democrats in Congress to oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership when it comes to a vote.
  • Donald Trump is attacking you almost daily on your 2002 vote in favor of the Iraq War. How do you plan to respond?
    Trump is lying if he says he opposed this war. There's no evidence or recorded statement of his opposition until well after the war began.
  • Do you stand by your position, voiced during the primaries, that you will not deport any illegal immigrant who has not otherwise committed a crime?
    I stand by that statement 100 percent. And I will push for immigration reform within my first 100 days as President.
  • Many left-wing groups are organizing huge protests at Donald Trump's rallies, some of which involve blocking traffic or forcing the cancellation of speeches. Do you have anything to say about these tactics?
    Donald Trump has repeatedly stepped over the line with his irresponsible rhetoric, and it shouldn't be any surprise that more and more protestors are turning out against him.
  • In the wake of Trump's nomination, a number of prominent anti-Trump Republicans are organizing to cast votes for Libertarian Gary Johnson as a protest, with an emphasis on the Western states. What are your thoughts?
    It isn't my place to step into these kinds of disputes. I would hope that people see Hillary Clinton as the best candidate for President when they look at the ballot.
  • Do you plan to participate in the traditional three debates, between yourself and Donald Trump?
    Any chance we can get to expose Trump's complete lack of preparation for the Presidency is a win for us.
  • What was your rationale behind selecting Julian Castro as your running mate?
    Julian Castro is a bright, young, energetic man who will be perfectly ready to assume the Presidency from day one. He represents the best and brightest of the Hispanic community.
  • While giving a speech today, you suddenly stopped speaking and appeared to briefly faint. A Secret Service agent supported you, and you came to and quickly finished the speech. Do you have any comment?
    It was just a headache which came on suddenly, and not any kind of long-term health issue. It's a shame that certain members of the right-wing have trafficked in fantastical conspiracy theories about my health.
  • What is your position on gun control?
    I support common-sense measures to reduce gun violence in this country.
  • Do you support any type of comprehensive immigration reform, and if so, to what extent?
    I will push for comprehensive immigration reform within 100 days of taking office. This will bring security to millions of families and make it harder for companies to exploit foreign workers.
  • Do you support the recent reopening of relations with Cuba?
    I fully support Barack Obama's actions in regards to Cuba.
  • What steps will you take to reduce or increase spending as President, per your priorities?
    We're going to support anyone in this country who tries to get a college education. We're going to protect Social Security and make sure our veterans are adequately cared for.
  • Do you have plans to take in more than the current level of 10,000 refugees per annum from the conflict in Syria?
    You know, Steve Jobs was a descendent of Syrian refugees. We're screening these people very carefully and we can certainly afford to take in more than 10,000.
  • What measures should be taken to make college more affordable?
    We need a more balanced trade situation, so that we have jobs available to people at all levels of society. We've really done a disservice to the white and African-American working class over the past twenty years.
  • Today, in a stump speech, Donald Trump said that, "women like Hillary, they can't handle power. It makes them crazy. We have to stop it." What is your reaction?
    Mr. Trump has proven over and over again how little respect he has for women in any capacity. This is yet another outrageous statement in that area.
  • To what extent will you attack Donald Trump for any number of statements he has made about women in his past, including in this election cycle?
    Mr. Trump's gross and outlandish rhetoric should disgust any decent, hard-working women in our society. We need to show that there is no place for this rhetoric.
