The men and women who run the supposedly nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates have put their money where their mouths are and it all has gone to Democrat Hillary Clinton.
The amount of money is small by the standards of a modern presidential campaign, but it is one-sided. A pair of Ph.D. candidates at Stanford University examined campaign finance reports and found that all of the $5,650 in contributions that commission members have made to presidential candidates during this election season have gone to Clinton.

Newton Minow is still alive?
Donating to complete the continued overthrow of America
All the RINOest of RINOs to represent the GOP, of course.
This is the face of “bipartisanship”.
1. The length of the debates (shorter favors frail Hillary),
2. Standing or seated (seated favors frail Hillary),
3. Whether the candidates walk onto the stage or are already there ahead of time (being able to position herself without the world watching favors sickly Hillary),
4. Who controls the camera. This one is huge. If Hillary collapses, coughs, or spits out a huge green luggi, expect the network to pan away.
At a minimum cell phone cameras in the audience must be allowed. The fate of our country depends on having a full record of any seizure.
And the show must go on. If either one is too ill to appear, the survivor gets 90 minutes of free air time.
Trump should just say, “Set all the rules you want Hillary donors, but realize, once I get on the stage all your rules go out the window, I’m going to do or say whatever the hell I want.”
Trump supporters who are going to be there could wear glasses with a camera embedded.
Another key and common rule: The temperature will be set to 50 degrees.
Trump should open the debate with a demand that the moderators openly state how much they have donated to each candidate and each party.
And of course his researchers will have already prepared him with the exact figures.
They should release the figures before the debate.
The first thing Trump should do is turn to Hillary and introduce himself and say I know we’ve met before but the FBI tells me you have memory problems.

ROTFLMAO!
Wouldn’t that take the wind out of her sails before she got started.
Head bobbing, bug-eyed response, waiting for her feel good jab.
Best campaign suggestion... ever.
Hillary questions........
what color do you like, what did you eat for dinner, what kind of music do you like, how is your grandchild
Questions asked by people who are democrat operatives posing as ‘journalists’ ALSO MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
Will these democrat operatives ask about issues that matter to Americans... or about issues focus-tested to help democrats?
I know how the other ‘debates’ worked - they were vile in their bias. History will NOT be kind to these people...

'Elites' have ONCE AGAIN proved - if they have power - they WILL NOT BE FAIR. They will use their power to further their own cause.
That's why we don't trust the elites... and it's how they've proved they're NOT TRUSTWORTHY.
How many examples do the people of the United States need before they wake up to the truth? We're dealing with corrupt totalitarians who only care about themselves... their needs, their bottom line and the people who will keep them in power --- at our expense.

The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) was established in 1987 to ensure that debates, as a permanent part of every general election, provide the best possible information to viewers and listeners. Its primary purpose is to sponsor and produce debates for the United States presidential and vice presidential candidates and to undertake research and educational activities relating to the debates. The organization, which is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) corporation, sponsored all the presidential debates in 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, and 2012.
Note the oh-so-cute use of passive "was established," which suggests it was set up by an act of Congress. It wasn't established by anyone. It was a takeover of the debates by the usual DC elitist establishment cabal. And as is common with all such pseudo-governmental commissions, this one has acquired far more power than just organizing presidential debates. Here's the rest of its mission statement:
To meet its ongoing goal of educating voters, the CPD is engaged in various activities beyond producing and sponsoring the presidential debates. Its staff prepares educational materials and conducts research to improve the quality of debates.Further, the CPD provides technical assistance to emerging democracies and others interested in establishing debate traditions in their countries. In recent years, the staff worked with groups from Bosnia, Burundi, Colombia, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Haiti, Jamaica, Lebanon, Niger, Nigeria, Peru, Romania, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda, and the Ukraine, among others. Finally, the CPD coordinates post-debate symposia and research after many of its presidential forums: 1996 Post-Debate Symposium, 1992 Post-Debate Research, 1988 Post-Debate Symposium.
Note also that there is no information on the CPD website about its funding sources.
