Libertarian vice presidential candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld will return to Boston Thursday to address students at Emerson College.
The school invited Weld to speak at a forum where he plans to discuss why the Libertarian ticket should be included in presidential debates, said Dan Winslow, a former state representative volunteering with the campaign.
NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton confronted their key weaknesses in a televised national security forum, with the Republican defending his preparedness to be commander in chief despite vague plans for tackling global challenges and the Democrat arguing that her controversial email practices did not expose questionable judgment.
Trump also renewed his praise of Russian President Vladimir Putin and his disdain for President Barack Obama, saying that the Russian enjoyed an 82 percent approval rating. "The man has very strong control over a country," Trump said. "It's a very different system and I don't happen to like the system, but certainly, in that system, he's been a leader, far more than our president has been a leader."
