Karin Bohr, a sophomore nursing major, said she strongly supports Clinton.
"I liked Bill Clinton when he was in office and I feel she would be a great asset for our country," she said.
Nithin Michael, an international student majoring in electrical engineering, volunteered for the debate, but said he refrained from support of one candidate.
"I'm still trying to understand the culture of this country," Michael said. "I've immersed myself in it as much as possible. I hope to live here when I graduate. I find the American political system so fascinating."
Michael described his ideology as center-right.
"I think you guys have a difficult choice this time around," he said.
The previous Democratic presidential debate was held at Dartmouth College, where Clinton was the OpenVote poll winner.
OpenVote was created by Dartmouth graduate students Jason Freedman and Colin Van Ostern as a way for students to poll their school on any issue. The OpenVote web site an independent venture that is not connected with a political party or Drexel University.

Content and logic wise, I think Hillary Clinton clearly won the debate. She was very rational and reasonable with the issues, and handled personal attacks really well. (Continued…)

Gravel won the debate. His anti-debate commentary showed the others as the phonies they are.

Ron Paul won the Democratic debate. He had support there that eclipsed the D-squad combined. It was priceless to see the MSNBC commentators having to comment about the D-squad with Ron Paul banners wallpapering the set behind them. (Continued…)
