Democracy Now debate format to include Jill Stein and Rocky Anderson

As President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney square off in their first debate tonight, Democracy Now! will broadcast live from Denver with a special expanded presidential debate from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. ET. We will air the Obama/Romney debate, pausing after questions to include equal time responses from two presidential contenders who were shut out of the official debate: Jill Stein of the Green Party and Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party.

there is a secret agreement between the Republicans and Democrats about the debate, what will be asked and what won't be talked about -- just as there has been in past years. The other candidates probably wouldn't agree to that and/or wouldn't keep it a secret.
