I didn’t expect such an aggressive conversation with @AC360 but I figure it’s good rehearsal for debating Donald Trump.

You're running for president and you've made a lot of disturbing statements about health care, faith and science. I would be disappointed if you weren't aggressively questioned about them, because those positions make it hard for a lot of Democrats to consider supporting you.

Anderson Cooper's brother died from suicide. Preaching Scientology talking points at him was gross.

You have to answer faster. I didn’t know about Cooper’s personal loss re: suicide, but I could tell his pressing you for a more direct answer came from something personal. He is a good and intelligent person who respects you. Trump is not. This wasn’t even close.

A conversation is not a question followed by you giving a whole spiel and speech. Get to the point faster. A lot will continue to be misconstrued because you took too long to make your points.

Ok in that case here’s a question. How many people have committed suicide because you persuaded them through talks to come off medication.

I've got a question. Please explain the scientific method of how you believe sending positive thoughts at an oil well disaster will stop the flow of oil spilling into the environment.

No problem. I suffer from severe depression, which you've called a "scam". Your excuse was you were speaking glibly to impress Russell Brand, not as a candidate. How can I feel like my illness would be a priority to someone who would stigmatize me to make a good impression?

Going off-topic with platitudes and poetry quotes is not insightful when the person you're talking to seems to have to remind you, constantly, of the question you're supposed to be answering. You said a lot of words, but it was all fluff to avoid less-than-stellar answers.

I have a genuine ?. I’ve been suffering from depression since HS & I graduated in 91. I admit part of that had to do w/ being raped. Thought the depression has continued th/out my life. Several psychiatrist have diagnosed me as a manic depressive. I can’t live w/ out my meds!
