Ken Bone trivial

I really don't see how the Ken Bone bit doesn't fit in this article. I read the guideline mentioned by whoever put the trivia template on there but I don't think that adheres to this paragraph at all. First of all, it's not a list of things, just one separate occurrence, second of all, the guideline specifically mentions This guideline does not suggest removing trivia sections, or moving them to the talk page. If information is otherwise suitable, it is better that it be poorly presented than not presented at all.. I don't think there's any better place for the Ken Bone phenomenon than right here on this page. Please discuss in the talk section before adding the trivia template again.

Clinton provided with debate questions

Hilary Clinton was provided with at least 2 debate questions in advance of the debates. Who provided them and for which debate(s)? Was this highly publicized and what was the backlash for this serious breach in the part of Clinton? 67.198.34.62 (talk) 14:44, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
