During Saturday night's Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton was asked about bringing in Syrian refugees.
"I think that is the number one requirement. I also said that we should take increased numbers of refugees.
The [Obama] administration originally said 10 [thousand].
I said we should go to 65 [thousand], but only if we have as careful a screening and vetting process as we can imagine, whatever resources it takes.
I do not want us to in any way inadvertently allow people who wish us harm to come into our country."
This is particularly relevant, as early reports on yesterday's attacks in Paris suggest that they may have been committed by Syrian refugees.
Clinton did not explain the specifics of her proposed screening and vetting process.
