Answers:

  • What is your position on the abortion issue?
    I believe that abortion should be safe, legal, and rare.
  • 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?
    Let's give the keynote address to Elizabeth Warren. Mr. Sanders will speak as well, but I think emphasizing Ms. Warren will be a good middle-ground.
  • 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 his accomplishments and the improving economy, and then on how I will uphold his policies and legacy as President.
  • 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?
    I'm going to be making a reference to Trump University in almost every speech that I make.
  • 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?
    Most Americans want to see an increase in the minimum wage, and I stand by my support for this measure.
  • To what extent will you campaign with Barack Obama, or support his presence on the campaign trail this year?
    We want Obama on the campaign trail as much as possible, and we plan to do several joint events.
  • 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.
  • In a hearing today, a New York judge has set the trial date for the Trump University lawsuit to August of this year. Do you have any comment?
    I'm not surprised. Trump has been less than honest in any number of areas throughout his life.
  • Do you support the construction of a 20-foot wall along the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border?
    This is one of the most far-fetched ideas that I've heard in my political career.
  • What is your opinion of Barack Obama's performance as President?
    I will be very proud to continue with the policies and economy that Obama has left our country with.
  • Do you support the recent reopening of relations with Cuba?
    I fully support Barack Obama's actions in regards to Cuba.
  • How concerned are you about the $17 trillion debt that the United States currently owes?
    Barack Obama has reduced the deficit of this country by over half since his first year in office, and I will do anything I can to continue his policies.
  • Do you support the practice of fracking? What is your overall view on energy policy?
    I'm opposed to fracking, and I think we need a lot more regulation of the practice.
  • Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?
    Florida
  • Donald Trump has said in a couple of speeches that, "we don't really know" who fathered Chelsea Clinton. Do you have any comment?
    Mr. Trump's attacks are grotesque and outrageous. I trust that Americans of all persuasions will vote this type of rhetoric down in November.
  • Donald Trump is regularly floating the accusation that Bill Clinton had a male child with an African-American hooker in Little Rock, and that both of you have conspired to bury the story. Do you have any comment?
    Mr. Trump's attacks are grotesque and outrageous. I trust that Americans of all persuasions will vote this type of rhetoric down in November.
  • 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.
