BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – In North Dakota’s U.S. Senate campaign, Republican Rick Berg and Democrat Heidi Heitkamp agree on many things.

     At a debate Wednesday in Bismarck, Berg and Heitkamp said they support developing all of the nation’s energy sources, including
coal and oil.
     Heitkamp says President Barack Obama has “walked away from coal
and been hostile to oil.”
     Heitkamp says she agrees with former Alaska Republican Gov.
Sarah Palin’s “drill, baby, drill” strategy.
     Berg and Heitkamp say the best way to bolster Social Security is
to get jobs growing again.

And they both say they wouldn’t rule out military action against Iran to prevent the country from getting nuclear weapons.
     Heitkamp says she would insist on permission from Congress
before going to war.

Berg says consultations with Congress are needed.

     The North Dakota Broadcasters Association hosted the debate.
