GOP Candidates On Immigration, Abortion And The Economy
The top 10 Republican candidates hoping to call the White House home in 2016 duked it out Thursday night for the first presidential debate of election season.
Stealing the primetime slot from the seven lower-polling candidates, the top group jockeyed for attention to spotlight policy positions in an attempt to standout among the crowded bunch.
The candidates who made Fox News’ final cut included former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, businessman and reality TV host Donald Trump, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
The group discussed issues ranging from the Iran deal to abortion, touting resumes and rattling off proposed policy plans to sell their presidential qualifications.
