NOW WITH BILL MOYERS exposes the truth behind the Presidential debates, detailing how they've been hijacked by the two main political parties. Before you watch the debates this week, be prepared—watch this excerpt from NOW, the show the press had called, "one of the last bastions of serious journalism on TV." If you care about your democracy, you'll be blown away.
I refuse to install RealPlayer so could not watch the video, however the transcript was a very interesting read.

I'm lost. Where's the parent to this orphaned thread?

I'm glad I read that. I've stopped watching the debates for many of the same reasons they discussed. Knowing how we got to this terrible point is intriguing. That's a good read. When is that show televised?

Tis good to be back.

I find it interesting that they seem to make the rules up as they go, to continue to lock themselves into power. Perot broke in, only to have the loopholes closed on his next pass.

Pity he or someone else can't buy a block of network airtime and cover the 3rd party debates.
