Open Letter On Debates

August 8, 2007

Going into the 2008 elections, one place we would like very much to see change is in the Presidential Debates. The current system is exclusionary, and can hardly be considered fair. The Committee on Presidential Debates is co-chaired by the ex-chairmen of the two major parties, third party candidates are mandated to have 15% of the polls in September to even be considered for inclusion, and the current system stifles- not encourages- the free expression of multiple viewpoints.
