Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumThis format is ridiculous. There's a much better way to vet the candidates
The debate format is ridiculous. What matters most is nominating someone who can go toe-to-toe with Trump.
Instead of two nights of 10 candidates talking to each other, which only shows how good they aren't arguing with normal human beings, we should have a series of 20 different debates, maybe 30 minutes each, with each candidate going one-on-one against Dennis Miller, who's about the most Trump like entertainer out there--and who frankly needs the gig.
So then, whoever gets in the best zingers, perhaps as judged by an applause-o-meter... that's who we nominate.
