Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
 

[quote=Chico23231;1326259]I think we need a national law which mandates debates during elections. Agree to have them in neutral, unsponsored places with non partisan moderators.

Non-partisan doesn't exist anymore.

Each debate should have 2 moderators, 1 from each side, that ask an equal number of questions to both candidates.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
 

Problem is all common human decency is out the window with the debates. Nobody respects or listens to the moderators or their fellow opponent. Nobody actually answers the questions directly. Everyone has an agenda and just wants to rile up their base with sound bites.

Really tired of the political hit job ads where every candidate is made out to be the devil incarnate. Can we all just fucking grow up already?

Definitely frustrating. 95% of all political ads are about how bad the opposing candidate is and 5% are about what they actually might try to do.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
 

In this day and age I am not even sure what the relevance of a debate is. It is so easy to find where a candidate stands on an issue and what their platform is and unlike the 60s over 95% of the u.S. population can now read.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
 

Well you should have to defend position and why they stand for something.

It’s relevant, people deserve explanations and it’s important to hear it from the person’s mouth for accountability.

Things written…no. Unfortunately they can be edited or the person can simply say…I’ve never said that or said I’ve stood for that.

Debates should mandatory across the board

I think both in Georgia and Utah, it’s gets testy but it’s been fine overall

If tv is so important to you and other Americans then why not have mandatory interviews? RNC chooses one interviewer and DNC another?

A debate is designed to sway an audience or a panel that their view is correct. Can you honestly say anyone watching these debates says they have changed their mind who they are voting for?

I think debates are more helpful for deciding which candidate in your own party you want to be the nominee for that party.

Once it gets to right vs. left, I don't think it very much matters anymore. Our heels are dug-in long before any debates there happen.

Yeah I think so. Just look at G1, he’s an independent

AOC danced along with the protesters' chants and called one man's sign 'classy'

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
 

I tend to agree with SD about debates more important in primaries. I would prefer more of a Q and A. Tucker interviewing Biden for 30 minutes asking tough questions conservatives might care about in a more cordial discussion than what we are seeing now. IDK. I don't see debates going any where though

Only thing worse than that would be if they took it a step further and tried to stop an election process with weapons and killed cops and desecrated th Capitol building and a politician said he loved them. Oh wait.

As usual folks Chico completely oblivious to his own hypocrisy. Go oblivious fool Go.

These "protesters" seem planted.

You've seen her opponent right? 110% trash.

JFC, Fetterman is in awful shape…this is beyond cringe. Asked a direct question, stupid wife says he can’t do interviews because they are celebrating a bridge that’s not working yet…while he has a retarded look on his face like he has no clue where he is. Completely unfit for office.
