This is what I want to see in the next debate:

I want every participant to include in his/her opening statement and closing statement
'Look we all want the same things: health care, higher minimum wage, environment, put some taxes back on the obscene incomes, ( in other words all the things the party stands for).
We differ in the fine print and method. That's fine.
Tonight I open by focusing on the #1 objective for the next 10 months: Winning this election and flipping Congress.

If we keep diceing and slicing one another it is just going to be more difficult. So let's put our heads together and figure out how to get 'er done"

Every question should be answered: "My focus on this subject is different from Donald Trump in this way: this is what we need to do and he isn't doing it"

Don't you think that would be not only refreshing but would get people's attention? It sure would shock the MSM.

Another Idea I had was to give them a couple of advance topics. They all get the same ones, and work up their own take on the subject; they can even confer ahead of time if they like. Give out three or four topics for them to prep then choose only 2 for the broadcast. Then the moderators give them 30 minutes on stage to put their heads together as if they were a committee, right in front of the cameras and work out a strategy in a civil discussion, delegate who handles which aspect of the problem and then present the solution. It could be very refreshing and make them work together instead of bickering.

Call me crazy if you wish but we have to do SOMETHING

1. This is basically what it's all about anyway, not power and all that entails. I like it! n/t
