That's got to be within the national

Comments from our users:
Senator Paul Ryan suggested that 'I think the American people will be better served if we don't interrupt each other"
The fact is VP Biden interrupted Senator Ryan's debate turn, 82 times. The word interrupt was used by the Senator and I respectfully suggest should be added to your list. The interruptions were disruptive and created a chaotic climate. The moderator failed to maintain professional decorum.
