For anyone who wondered, like me, how come the debates we see on t.v. only include the Republican and Democratic candidates, well, the Presidential Debate Commission is a private organization ran by both of those parties. PDC was started in 1987 by both parties and is running the debates we see.

I am currently trying to find out how to contact them.

They have pretty much eliminated any chances of a third party candidate even having a chance at the presidency and WE THE PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING FOR IT.

I have been writing letters to news organizations and am headed to my representatives mail boxes next.

I am asking any of you that contact your representatives or even if you don't, please write your representatives about the unfairness of this organization.

Thanks for all your help.

Yes but this organization took it over in 1987

Thanks Robin . I edited mine and put a link on there.

you a welcome

anything for y fav debate adversary

even if we have been agreeing on alot lately

that must be a sign of the people getting just totally fed up

Can't blame em. But on this subject I am really aggravated that the conflict of interest has been allowed and they have pretty much effectively elimated the other parties in this country. We the American people have suffered because of this. This is another civil right that is being taken away.

i concur
