Questions I didn't Get to Ask for Democratic Debate

-Did Bernie Sander seemed a little bit aggressive or even angry at times when responding to Biden?
-Why do you think Elizabeth Warren is less aggressive when confronting Biden even though she is almost ideologically identical with Sanders?
-What do you think of the line by Andrew Yang “I am Asian, so I know a lot of doctors.” What was obviously a planned line. Was this attempt at humor targeting any specific demographic group? 
-A memorable moment from the debate was when Beto O'Rourke was asked about whenever he plans to confiscate guns from people when said “Hell yes, I am gonna take away Ar-15 and AK-47? Is it politically risky to say such thing, why?
-You do you think Sander stress again in this debate that “I have a “F” rating from NRA”
-Do you think that Andrew Yang got to Answer the “China” question was an incident?
-What policy issues do they have the most disagreement on?
- When asked about the difference between his policies and that of Maduro’s, Sander distanced himself from Maduro,  Is socialism a “dirty word” in American politics? 
- Julian Castro pronounced his name in Spanish way “Castro” , is that a calculated move? 
-Toward the end of the debate, a large chunk of time was dedicated to talking  about “teachers” why did they spend so much time talking about just one profession out of so many? 
-Elizabeth Warren “Two cent tax on the top 1/10 of the top 1%” is almost an anchored line for her on the debate stage now. What do you think about this policy detail?
-Do you like candidate rich in policy or one rhetorically inspiring? Why?
- Elizabeth Warren imbedded a lot of personal experiences on her campaign stomp and on debate stage, she is essentially using the “I am one of you” narrative, how does this style of campaign fare again Trump’s “I alone can fix this (as if I am better than every one of you)?
-The last question in this debate was that  “What was the worst setback in your professional life?”
-It is a common campaign/job interview questions what do you think is the best way to answer these types of questions.
