Real Presidential Debates
slithytove writes "As many of us are aware, the presidential debates are currently controlled by an organization called the Commision on Presidential Debates. As anyone who's seen a presidential debate recently could guess, the CPD does just what our two major parties want: exclude third parties and impose rules that make the event more of a joint press conference than a debate. Non-establishment candidates Michael Badnarik and David Cobb will be having an actual debate this Thursday. After debating each other, they will be rebutting the points Bush and Kerry make in their pseudo-debate. Free Market News will be streaming it and providing a download afterwards."
Tribal sovereignty means that, it's sovereign.
Heh. Bush could debate himself too, but he'd lose.
So the candidates that no one is going to vote for are going to have a debate that no one is going to watch?

My wife and I will debate over what's for dinner, what to do after dinner, and whether there will be any extracurriculars later that night.
Sadly, the debate is meaningless, as marriage is a dictatorship.
Bush suggests that Kerry could debate himself for 90 minutes. This is probably true. Unfortunately Bush probably couldn't even pull that off; but the maliprops and 'Bushisms' of him debating himself would be priceless.

You're just jealous of our freedoms.
Nice sig. Only, the way it shapes up, it's "Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, Clinton and Clinton".
I can assure you, the best way to get rid of dragons is to have one of your own.
If there wasn't a limit set somewhere, you'd probably have 100+ people involved. And it's against FCC regulations to show people mass debating on TV.
Bill O'Reilly belongs to the "SHUT UP!!" and "CUT HIS MIKE!!" party.
People in other nations say americans suffer from "exceptionalism" ... we'd hate to prove them wrong.
Ignore the "p2p is theft" trolls, they're just uninformed
The machines control the matrix now.
