RE: Should it be easier to qualify for Presidential debates?

in #politics7 years ago

@davidpakman, this is a topic not for new years eve! there are so many facets that must be analyzed to properly respond to the challenge. Local, state and federal rules that install the barriers to entry need to be attached and revised. If the "duopoly" were corporations, the FTC would sue them for anti-competitive practices. Its not only qualify for the debates but the structure (format) and moderator (should there even be one or just a stop watch). Also, as you noted, the power of the "duopoly" also extends to format control and who the moderator is.
