When Is The Next GOP Presidential Debate?
IBT ^ | September 17, 2015 | Jackie Salo

Posted on 09/17/2015 11:22:24 AM PDT by conservative98

Economic issues will be the focus of the next televised GOP presidential debate, which will be held Oct. 28 at the University of Colorado in Boulder and broadcast on CNBC. CNBC's debate titled "Your Money, Your Vote: The Presidential Debate on the Economy" will address jobs, taxes, the deficit and the national economy. The network will moderate the debate.

"Presidential elections are often won or lost based on core economic positions, understandings and values," said Mark Hoffman, CNBC chairman, in a statement. "Our nation's economy and place in the world, job growth, entrepreneurship and the pursuit of the American dream live at the very center of CNBC's mission each day and will be the centerpiece of our line of focused questioning at this debate.

Please tell me it won’t be pitting candidates off one another for what the others say (for 3 hours) with Liberal questions.

Hopefully never until the candidates INSIST on taking OWNERSHIP of the debate format and subjectmatter.

What we saw last night was what happens when you let the Left run a “debate”. It wasn’t a debate. It was an elementary-school “Show and Tell” session with the commentators acting as provocateurs and hecklers.

It is obvious that CNN’s marching orders were to keep the candidates fighting amongst each other - that way the real issues remain examined. The same old Leftist MSM gameplan like Lucy AGAIN getting Charlie Brown to run and kick the football that he KNOWS will not be there for him to kick. In the same way, the GOP continues to give the Left the ball (charge of the format and the subjectmatter) and the Left continues to pull the ball at the last minute (distract and confuse) and the Right goes flying AGAIN. How long until “ENOUGH”?

The Left keeps the GOP candidates and thus the public distracted from discussing and understanding the real issues at hand: the tyranny of the mostly unconstitutional $4 trillion federal government, abortion and unconscionable treatment of the unborn, economic disaster because of minimum ware, regulations, unions, and taxes (talked a little about that). And keep the focus off the disaster of Obama and Clinton.

When will somebody on the Right have the guts to say ENOUGH of letting the Leftist MSM run OUR show and debate format? Whatever it takes, somebody somewhere has got to buy the needed airtime to have control over the format and have an actual, meaningful debate.

An actual debate format:

1) Moderators are in the background.

2) Subjects are chosen by a) the candidates themselves b) a poll of Americans

3) If a three-hour session, probably five or six relevant and substantive subjects. These should include: 1) the size of the federal government and what portion is unconstitutional 2) defense of the U.S. 3) immigration and secure borders 4) the economy: what is hurting the economy and what are the solutions.

4) First two hours: a) one subject at a time, probably 15-20 minutes per subject b) give each candidate a 30-second introductory statement about where they stand on the subject c) open up the discussion on that subject to all candidates d) moderators step in if a yelling match ensues or if one guy is not allowing others to speak.

5) Third Hour: moderators (or maybe other candidates or even the audience) ask a candidate a question about what they said in the debate. Each candidate has equal time to be asked and answer a question about what they said in the actual debate.

On taxes, Trump's tax plan will be out by then.

Walker's budget deficit will be brought up again. <

Fiorina's CEO experience will be brought up, 2 bad deals out of 2.

On the other hand, Trump had 4 bad deals out of thousands of good deals.

Trump will say he will be the greatest jobs president ever.

Trump wins another debate.
