CNN, the 'most trusted name in news,' asked Katy Perry and Ashton Kutcher for help with its debate questions

CNN has the answer to the most burning of questions ahead of tonight's Democratic debate: What would Ashton Kutcher ask the candidates? Turns out, the star of Dude, Where's My Car? really wants to know about driverless cars.
"During your presidency, you will be faced with a robotic revolution — for example, driverless cars and semitrucks — as machines take skilled and unskilled jobs from Americans. This will further hollow out the middle class and divide society. What do you propose we do as a nation to bridge the gap without stifling innovation? What will you do as president to maintain a country where everyone has upward mobility?" [CNN]
Kutcher isn't the only celebrity that the self-proclaimed "most trusted name in news" asked for input. CNN also gathered material from Katy Perry, Demi Lovato, Shonda Rhimes, Sir Elton John, Montel Williams and Melissa Etheridge, to name a few. The results, CNN says, are "thought-provoking." Judge for yourself by reading the full list at CNN.
