Does a polynomial $P(X,Y)$ that specializes to a polynomial $P(x_0,Y)$ with distinct roots in $\overline{k}$ have distincts roots in $\overline{k(X)}$
Let $k$ be a field, $P\in k[X][Y]$ be a monic polynomial of degree $n$ in $Y$.
I am looking for a simple proof of the following fact.
"If there exists $x_0\in k$ such that $P(x_0,Y) \in k[Y]$ has ...
