Tik Tock put your school city state and
teachers name in there too let's rise up
now tonight is a huge night in the US
for politics the first presidential
debate between Democratic candidate vice
president kamla Harris and Republican
candidate former president Donald Trump
it's a 90minut debate taking place in
Philadelphia and it comes with some
interesting rules including no
pre-written notes allowed on stage
though they can have a pen to take notes
during the debate the candidates staff
members are not allowed to interact with
them during commercial breaks and there
will be no interrupting the other
candidate when one candidate is speaking
the other's microphone will be muted
former president Trump won a coin toss
and chose to give the last closing
statement the debate will be hosted by
CBS but you can watch the special event
live on CNN tonight at 9 Eastern now
this was supposed to be the second
debate between former president Trump
and President Joe Biden but that all
changed in July when President Biden
announced he was suspending his campaign
and vice president Harris became the
Democratic party's Presidential nominee
our Brian Todd takes a closer look at
how it all came to be and how debates
like tonight's can provide defining
moments that can determine who
eventually becomes the next president of
the United States I been proposing that
everybody they pay the millionaires pay
1% It was the debate performance that
changed the dynamic of this race
ultimately ending president Biden's
candidacy for reelection for what I've
been able to do with the uh with with
with the co excuse me with um dealing
with everything we have to do with
uh
look if we finally beat Medicare Biden
after a disastrous debate leaving top
Democrats looking for a way to get him
out of the race or openly questioning
his Fitness for office from Biden to
Nixon a period spanning more than 60
years fraught moments in debates have
often been decisive September 1960 in
the very first televised presidential
debate Richard Nixon who was Ill was
visibly sweating while his opponent John
F Kennedy looked youthful and composed
when the two were viewed side by side
and you asked yourself who would you
whose finger would you like to be on the
nuclear button it became clear you
didn't want the sweaty guy from
California in the vice presidential
debate in 1988 Dan Quail characterized
himself as a republican version of a
young John Kennedy which teed up his
opponent Lloyd Benson perfectly Jack
Kennedy was a friend of
mine Senator you're no Jack
Kennedy there were the wordless missteps
the body language gaaps at a debate in
2000 Al Gore audibly sigh there's
differences and in another debate that
year Gore gets a little too close to
George W bush on stage any little tick
or habit that a candidate may have is
something something that voters could
seize on and it could change the way
they view the candidate analyst Hans
Nichols believes if the September 10th
event is the only debate between Donald
Trump and Kamala Harris there will be
more pressure on both of them to perform
well at that debate and to not mess up
of the two Nichols believes there's more
overall pressure on vice president
Harris because she's had fewer
unscripted moments

newsworthy inspiration for the day we're
taking a look at a CNN hero helping
others affected by a disease she has
herself CLE cell anemia CLE cell disease
is an inherited disorder that affects
hemoglobin the major protein that
carries oxygen and red blood cells more
than 100 thousand people have it in the
us alone Millions worldwide since
there's no cure for Cle cell this CNN
hero is helping thousands of other CLE
cell patients get the medical care they
need to lead fulfilling
lives I was diagnosed with CLE cell at 6
months of
age CLE cell disease changes the shape
of the round red blood cells into squl
shap thread cells causing severe pain
limiting the oxygen circulation to your
organs it wrecks a lot of havoc in the
body the disease has so much
stigma in Kenya Healthcare is
decentralized to the County
government in 2017 I made a decision to
go back to my home county ta taveta to
solve Soso in Kenya ta taveta has an
alarming rate of CLE cell disease access
to care for C cell it's very far away
and the government has very little
[Music]
resources we are solving sell in a
holistic way we are looking at the basic
access to care we're also looking at the
individual I'm
Jambo we have household visits where we
assess their vulnerability
[Music]
status if it's food if it's water if
it's mental health support or if it's
just education we can plug those holes
and also engage them in Social and
economic activities that give them an
income to sustain the nutritional levels
in the home or supports their lives in
one way or
another it's very particular burden to
live with sckell and to try and solve
sleo for others in an environment where
you have very little
resources and you're making it up as you
goow I am happy to be here and happy to
be alive at this age to do this where I
was told that I will not live beyond my
eighth birth
