"You hae to cut down the field, to give those with a viable chance a opportunity to explain their views and positions."

No problem. Extend the debate time. On something as important as who should sit in the oval office for the next four years, why not? All you have to do to justify that is to take a look at what has happened to our country even during the last 20 years. Downhill all the way, and still descending regardless of who sits in the president's chair.

Gun control laws just keep stacking up. Children still being beheaded and ripped apart before birth. Financial support for candidates at the most crucial time of the campaign has been seriously restricted. The country continues to move towards one world government. Demographics shifting so rapidly that it's impossible to locate the 'old neighborhood' anymore. Enemies of our Republic abounding and seeking to drive us all into the sea.

And wussupt with the cost of gasoline and propane these days? It's worse than doubling IRS taxes. And wussup with the concept of the ownership of private property. A thing of the past that just floated out the door along with our Constitution which has been converted from a solid to a liquid.

I see every reason to extend the debate time as long as it has to be extended in order for every possible candidate to have a voice and an opportunity to make a positive contribution to the future of our country even if they won't get elected.

Debates should be a two or three-day affair. What's the rush?
