Prior to the debate, Fortune argued that entrepreneurship and innovation built the U.S. into the world’s leading economic superpower. Although the U.S. was built on these ideals, today, start-ups and small businesses are major job creators in the United States, these sectors often suffer the greatest burdens from regulations and tax policy.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump met on Monday night in the first of the Presidential Debates. Though the candidates discussed a smattering of important topics, including national security, race relations, and personal background, the candidates spent more time answering questions about the economy than any other topic [1]. Despite the 28 minutes and 12 seconds spent discussing the United States Economy, the candidates almost exclusively focused on trade and manufacturing sectors; almost no air time was devoted to the role of entrepreneurship and innovation. Based on prior experience, Clinton has demonstrated her commitment to entrepreneurship and innovation in the past through their support of various policy proposals (see Kaine and Entrepreneurship for more), and Trump's record as businessman seem to lend themselves to a more substantive discussion on these fields (see Pence and Entrepreneurship for more).

What does this say about their views on the roles of entrepreneurship and innovation in strengthening the U.S. economy?


Both candidates Clinton and Kaine have demonstrated their commitment to entrepreneurship and innovation in the past through their support of various policy proposals (see Kaine and Entrepreneurship for more), and Trump's record as businessman seem to lend themselves to a more substantive discussion on these fields.
