top campaigns and by two candidates hit the miami debate stage. i would argue it is a pretty unusual show. let s get right to it with reverend al sharpton with me here host of politics nation and a former presidential debater himself. and maria teresa kumar president and ceo of voto latino. great to see you. we are in the thick of it. reb, when you look at last night, a lot of energy, a lot of clashes. what stood out to you and what s relevant for those some of those bigger names tonight? i think the what stood out is that you had several of them bring up issues that needed to be highlighted. julian castro bringing up police misconduct and specifically naming eric gardener and that mir rice, something he s been doing, and when he took a firm stand on immigration in his back and forward with his differences with beto o rourke.
