NBC will curate your responses and decipher any emerging trends

here's the email address

questions@nbcnews.com

here's what I said under subject line ... make sure you have Sensata and China in your subject line for the "curating"

Sensata jobs sent to China?

Please ask BOTH CANDIDATES to discuss the conflict of interest in a Presidential candidate having HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars in foreign bank accounts and controlling interests in companies that are shipping American jobs overseas and benefiting from cheap Chinese labor?

4. Some info on the Town Hall format
Sun Oct 14, 2012, 11:05 AM
Oct 2012
The second presidential debate will take the form of a town meeting, in which citizens will ask questions of the candidates on foreign and domestic issues. Candidates each will have two minutes to respond, and an additional minute for the moderator to facilitate a discussion. The town meeting participants will be undecided voters selected by the Gallup Organization.

3. I sent the following question

Oct 2012

Sensata (a company controlled by Bain) is shuttering its Freeport, IL plant and moving the jobs to China.


Question for Romney: What personal actions did you take to help protect theese workers and their jobs given you own a significant share of Bain stock and have derived most of your personal wealth from your association with Bain? What Obama policies would you change to avoid these situations in the future?


Question for Obama: What policies should you have worked to enact to avoid this situation and/or to encourage additional manufacturing jobs in the US?
