When are we going to have a discussion on the CPD, Commission of Presidential Debates through the RI Lenses
CPD, Commission of Presidential Debates, requires 15% of votes for their party to be a part of the debates and those votes are from polls done by the CPD., requires 15% of votes for their party to be a part of the debates and those votes are from polls done by the CPD. And thus keeps third parties locked out of debates. Noting important ever gets talked about on the main stage.
The Presidential Debate Commission is a Non-Governmental, Private Commission comprised of Dems and Repubs, existing for the sole purpose of keeping others out of the debates, or so it seems to me. It's a highly deceptive organization. So much so, the League of Women Voters decided NOT to participate LEAGUE REFUSES TO "HELP PERPETRATE A FRAUD"
Level the Playing Field is suing the Federal Elections Commission to make presidential debates more inclusive.

If memory serves me, Ross Perot's run was the last time it wasn't a duopoly/oligopoly of Coke V Pepsi, rigged system. They’ve made it extremely unlikely that populists or 3rd party candidates will ever speak in any open debate.
The Commission on Presidential Debates is a 501(c)(3) non-partisan Corporation created by former RNC/DNC Directors. Since 1988, both campaigns secretly agreed to a "memorandum of understanding" that would decide which candidates could participate in the debates/which individuals would be panellists.
Not mention bias moderators, we're just supposed to believe that Susan Page, who is a democrat and whose wealthy family has donated hundreds of thousand of dollars to the DNC/DCC is impartial during the VP debate.
Lastly, CPD: upholds Catholic-Imposed Limitations in American Political Discourse which in turn narrowly limits topics.
