The GOP front-runners will apparently be part of the next Republican debate.
An early-morning tweet from Donald Trump said that CNBC agreed to the demands of both Trump and Ben Carson to keep the debate to two hours including commercials, CNN reported.
*snip*
In addition to the two-hour limit, Trump, in a letter to CNBC's Washington bureau chief, requested that candidates be permitted to speak directly to the camera during opening and closing statements, The Associated Press reported.

The optic of Trump negotiating and winning is not good for the “legacy media”
FNC and FBC are really pushing Carson as an “anything but Trump” propaganda.

Carson has SPENT as follows:
Total Raised $31,409,509
Total Spent $20,136,974
Cash on Hand $11,272,534
Debts $25,000 (his own money lent to campaign?)
Date of Report Sep 30, 2015
Given the money burn, this appears to be a stalking horse candidacy.
Sure, less debate time is better.
Geez.
It would be better for Trump to negotiate and win against the legacy media on something good. For example Trump could demand better moderators.
Yes, weed out the low polling candidates, and stop asking stupid gossip column questions. For those who missed the early part of this “debate” issue, here is a link.
Jeraldo only said that to gin up more hate for Trump and Carson (Rivera is a dedicated hateful racist) from his liberal sycophants.
Rivera NEVER does or says anything except to weaken conservatism in any way he can.
It's a typical Alinsky type tactic to "support" those they want to bring down.
Plus Jeraldo is always trying to show how "conservative" he is to world.

Mexico, the corrupt in D.C., insiders, lobbyist, influence peddlers, drug cartel kingpins and the corrupt politicians and the MSM networks agree with you 100%
You got some sharp looking company there Veritas
I think Solo works for Univision...
He sounds like Jose Ramos.
Trump is finished: Attempt #816.
#817 will be arriving any minute now.☺
Good. It’s a debate, not Gone with The Wind
“Trump may be brash and braggadocios but the man has a proven track record of getting things done and many testify to his great leadership.”
A soldier in charge during combat and keeping his men alive while accomplishing the mission is an example of a “great leader.”, Trump is just a businessman...not a leader. He would cut out your living heart and sell it if it would make him richer. He can’t even be faithful to a single wife...indicative of an untrustworthy person. No he is NOT a leader and he has NO character.
“...But he’s a real American who loves the nation and wants what is best for it.” You are horribly delusional or incredible naive. Please stop taking illegal drugs from South of the border. Trump ONLY wants what is best for himself....and it probably isn’t in America’s best interest.
I am truly sorry to be so harsh, but I am sick of this fool Trump ruining an election. If Hillary gets elected or if Trump gets elected....we are truly done for in either case. They are both fools.
“I think Solo works for Univision...”
I work for God, not illegals. You Trumpesters are unwitting fools for a fool.
If that's the case, I hope you don't get fired Solo!
“Then what the hell do you care?” Because I DO care for this country...unlike Trump and you Trumpesters that support him. The ding dongs that supported the wackadodo Paul actually look like reasonable people (which they are not) next to the Trumpesters.
“If that’s the case, I hope you don’t get fired Solo!”
I may very well, but it won’t be for opposing Donald Trump who is a stench in God’s nostrils.
If God allows Trump to be elected, then it is a judgement on this country as Obama has been. People ignore God and follow heathens like Obama and Trump get what they deserve. Unfortunately, the rest of us suffer for your foolishness.
Spare me your bullshit. You whine about some pointless debate rules then proclaim that you don’t watch them anyway.
That’s not caring about your country, that’s being a whiny bitch.
I’d prefer Huckabee to Marcass Rubio. I live in Florida; have heard enough lies and doubletalk from him.
This just re-enforces beliefs that Trumpster is not a human being but instead a deity or a superhuman.
That he cannot be beat.
Ironically, suppose that CNN planned this schedule all along and now Trump takes credit for making them cave to his demands,
Then that would show that he is even cleverer than if they caved under him. He would be the Illusionist. (Did you all see that Ed Norton movie?? Its really good.)
