I think the Top Ten in National Polls to participate in the prime time debate is ridiculous. The current polls, especially the National Polls are meaningless. A more practical approach would be to hold two back to back one hour or 90 minute debates with 8 candidates in each segment. The selection of which segment the 16 candidates would appear in would be based on a random draw. If anybody at Fox is viewing this, you might want to suggest this format.
There has to be some way to limit the field, this is as good as any. Otherwise we would never get past the introductions, as it is with 10 each will get what, 2 or 3 questons at most?
Still being ‘murica and all, I guess some one could host another debate and make any rules they prefer.......
