- description: Ken Bone becomes internet sensation with debate energy question, Bone wearing a red sweater and glasses, changed the pace of the debate by asking a question that had nothing to do with lewd comments or private email servers. Before he was even finished asking his question at the second presidential debate on Sunday, Kenneth Bone had become an instant online sensation. Near the end of the second presidential debate, Bone — a former Domino's Pizza manager and classic-car enthusiast, according to his Facebook page — posed a question for the two candidates about how they would craft their energy policies to reduce emissions while not harming jobs. A man wearing a red sweater and a white tie walked up to the podium and asked a question about energy needs of the two candidates. But it wasn't his question that led the man to Twitter fame. Bone's earnest delivery, bright sweater, and suggestive yet punchy name attracted instant attention online, inspiring thousands of tweets and a Facebook fan page with thousands of followers: Internet falls in love with Kenneth Bone, the undecided voter who asked energy policy question - and praises his outfit choice. Neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump came out on top of Sunday night's debate. That is what some viewers thought when Kenneth Bone, an undecided voter, asked the penultimate question and stole the show. Instead, Bone quizzed Trump and Clinton on their energy policies - and in doing so, became an instant hit. 'What steps will your energy policy take to meet our energy needs while at the same time remaining environmentally friendly and minimizing job loss for fossil power plant workers?' Bone asked as the debate neared its end. Some viewers forgot to listen to the candidates' replies as they became mesmerized with Bone.
