We all know that if the Republican debates include all the declared candidates that it's going to be a circus. Each candidate will only get to speak for a few minutes and we won't learn much. We'd learn more if the debates were limited to the candidates who had the greatest chance of getting the nomination.
Here are the most realistic candidates--not the best candidates, but the ones who have at least a chance to win the nomination:
Scott Walker: Current governor of Wisconsin, an inspirational speaker, riding high in several polls.
Jeb Bush: Former governor of Florida, he's been out of politics for years--but he's a Bush! Out of politics for a while, but building a huge war chest, and also doing OK in the polls.
Ted Cruz: He's raised a lot of money in a short period of time, he excites audiences, and he's an intellectual powerhouse with a great record of accomplishment.
Marco Rubio: Young, telegenic, Hispanic, and has a billionaire bankrolling him. Supports amnesty for illegal aliens, but no one is perfect!
Rand Paul: He excites crowds and has important supporters like Mitch McConnell. Not a fringe candidate like his Dad....

All liberal media moderators.
The media.
They can broadcast them but they don’t have any special right to moderate and decide what questions we want to hear.
Liberal moderators....
other than that all are welcome
.
Bush!
.
I think none of them should be left out of the debates. They can start the debate at 9AM and go to 9PM if they need too.
TELEVISION....
RINO surrender monkeys
Like the 1972 Democratic National Convention?
NO DEBATES BEFORE AUGUST 15TH..... ONLY TWO DEBATES.
Certainly all should be included in the early debates.
Rand Paul.
Drug legalization is outside of the party platform.
Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, Mike Huckabee, Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, Bobby Jindal, Mitt Romney, Marco Rubio.
So, who are the “best candidates”?
I just think we don’t need the establishment deciding who should be in them. And we don’t need it to be about who has the most money. And we don’t need the press telling us who should be in the debates.
Exclude those who make pretend they are Republicans which should exclude almost all of them.
How about liberal and Democrat Party stooge moderators? GOP-e weasels are your reading this?
Mainstream media.
No one should be excluded. Have 2 or three debates if necessary but exclude no one. How do we know how they will perform if we can’t hear them?
This day and age Reagan would have been excluded.
Bush should be laughed out of the group. He’s a democrat candidate at best. At worst, a Mexican candidate.
