Welcome everybody I'm Neil Cavuto -- forget the nation's debt best spiraling -- sixteen trillion dollars.

When it comes to the president's own debt commission -- -- but Democrats.

Wants it completely.

Off the table during the presidential debates not a word about it they -- forcing.

Solutions from one menu options would -- the debate their words.

So the -- be -- that we call -- those Democrats know -- there about hope which springs eternal.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Well I think it was commissioned by Obama it was a very very strong report and he wants no part of it he wants to really just pretend it never happened and the Democrats want to pretend it never happened to also and they should be somewhat ashamed of themselves and it should certainly be a question for debate there's no question about that.

What would you think -- -- the debate organizers set our will keep the debt.

Our commission often at least that first debate discuss.

Well I would be surprised I don't think anything should be left off the table this is a vicious campaign Obama is being unbelievably vicious and his people.

And the kind of things they're saying I just don't think anything should be left off the table and I think that -- And the Republicans will be -- have to be very very tough very strong.

Armed.

I just wondered what could be the logic in this position I guess the debt commission as you know came out with a lot of proposals some.

A lot of Republicans like some lot of Democrats like.

But if you it was like -- of a sort of a laundry list of things and it was.

Had to discuss them in the standard debate it would take time we get -- area.

But even that's -- he seems nonsensical because the debt commission came up with a lot of great ideas.

So what do you make up just not wanting to even pretend it exists.

Well I think -- debt commission is something that what do you like it or not it's here.

It was Obama's concept it was his idea and it's amazing how he ran from it and basically the Democrats don't -- -- be forced into a position of having to -- And I know some of the democratic chip Duckett about it there's some beauties but they don't wanna be forced into a position of having to lie and that's what they do because if this were brought up in the debate they'd be lying like -- All right and one of them is near Syrian -- you're not saying he's one of the -- Well Jerry is a guy -- a lightweight he's not respected he's not somebody that's a big thinker.

I've known him for many many years and Jerry Nadler is truly the kind of guy that gets us in trouble -- And so frankly when you look get to him and you look at what his suggestion is that we shouldn't put this on the table it was his -- it was Obama that brought it up in the first place so.

You know that's -- us.

You don't -- what have you.

You're not speaking at the convention.

Was by your own -- -- I'm told that I was a suspect part of it I'm doing something no blood is that something I can't tell you that but it's going to let accelerating and hopefully quite amazing went -- -- -- and argued is that going to be some -- and say.

It will be amazing but as -- is doing his -- you'll be one of the first little rusty Paris buzzing again.

So it is it going to be a speech inside out I don't -- to say it's going to be something I think it's going to be really.

Quite interesting and perhaps amazing are you gonna say anything damaging about the Republican ticket.

We're certainly not about the Republican ticket OK so I'm a big turnout and it bounced outside.

The conventional your support for Barack Obama that date back to take that as a given well I will tell you I'm not supporting Obama that you know I think that would be a major -- announced it was.

All right but I honest I don't know what all the big I'm a big fan of -- then what could that day.

She did not speaking in the -- when he Dennis.

You know what they really wanted me to speak and they also wanted me to do this and I said I think the one would be appropriate and I think it's bigger than anything else I can think -- and I agreed to do it and you'll see FDA.

In those opening moments.

In the opening moments.

Your covering the cost for all of.

Well I just think it's going to be something that's going to be quite exciting quite good and very truthful unlike what a lot of the stories -- hearing from the Democrats I mean I think very very troops.

I'm worried -- -- word the in this exchange down.

Is that you set I'll be one of the first and now I've been reduced to one of the.

Slot to change that around -- still it's important.

I would certainly change anything you do is say you know you are my favorites we've had a good relationship for a long time.

In -- all right well I'm watching closely and I look forward to hearing it first.

Here with me or on Fox Business which if you don't get nominees should demand as always thank you very much thank you very much you know Donald from --
