Political Debate Formats need changing?
IMO the Political Debate Format needs to be updated. While party debates have their place to help select the eventual candidate for each party I think they get stale. I think it would be more beneficial if say once the state primaries start that there be some inter-party debates between GOP and DEMS on the same stage. My feeling is it would be more beneficial to the independent non-affiliated voter to see a debate between all candidates for POTUS and the ideological differences between parties. Right now both parties can promise you the moon with no counterpoint mentioned. An inter-party debate would offer a unique view to the various sides of an issue and provide for a much more informed voter. Discuss.
