Presidential Debates

[Eugenia Gabrielov]

We'll actually be watching the debates in history tomorrow. I find them interesting. While I've been watching political progress for the past few months, it is always good to compare the two candidates when they're in the same proximity. I think any tool that can be used to inform people more about the choices they can make in an election is a good tool.

Watch the debates kids. Maybe you'll learn something. And I think those rules are useful. Look at how much we argue here on Chief, and most of us are reasonably intellegent people. Two guys duking it out for the highest US Office is a pretty intense situation, so I'd say it isn't unreasonable to have a mod. Also, a good president should have the maturity to understand that regulations like these aren't meant to target them, but to benefit everyone participating and watching.

I'll definitely be watching. But I'm much more interested in seeing the Vice Presidential debate, and I really hope that they won't let it be a sit-down one like last time.
