CLEVELAND, Ohio-Ohio 11th Congressional District Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge, a Warrensville Heights Democrat whose majority Black congressional district includes the city of Cleveland and several of its eastern suburbs, has launched an attack against the 10 GOP presidential candidates slated to debate today, August 6, 2015 at Quicken Loans Arena in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, the first of 11 scheduled GOP debates relative to the 2016 Republican primary for president. (Editor's note: The debate, which officially begins at 9 pm EST, airs live on Fox News)
"The Republican Party is out of touch with America, the state of Ohio and the city of Cleveland," said Fudge, in a press release to Cleveland Urban News.Com, Ohio's leader in Black digital news.
The top ten of the 17 declared GOP presidential candidates selected to debate on Thursday in Cleveland based upon poll numbers are flamboyant billionaire businessman, actor and author Donald Trump, former governor Jeb Bush of Florida, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, former governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, Dr. Ben Carson, Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas, Marco Rubio of Florida and Rand Paul of Kentucky, Gov Chris Christie of New Jersey, and Gov.

Hillary Rodham Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic nomination for president in 2016 |
Fudge last month endorsed Hillary Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic nomination for president., and said earlier today that while she welcomes the debate to the largely Black major metropolitan city, she takes issue with each and every GOP candidate that will take to the stage Thursday night. She said that none of them are pushing for public policy changes for the betterment of America's most vulnerable, and that they want the rich to get richer, and the poor to get poorer.
"The city of Cleveland and the state of Ohio look forward to the first Republican presidential debate on Thursday," said Fudge, who is Black. "However, no matter which candidate takes the stage, they all believe the same thing."
The congresswoman said that all of the GOP presidential candidates want to "cut education, cut medicaid, medicare and social security, limit access to health care, cut taxes for the rich on the backs of hardworking Americans, and refuse to pass a jobs bill."
