21. I think we had this discussion before
and I think I said yes. So I'll be consistent and say yes again.

Which brings me again to my point, although I am having trouble putting my thoughts together, that there needs to be a change in rules/laws to define when a candidate becomes prevalent enough to participate in a debate.


If there are hundreds of people running for prez, then yes, essentially they all should be allowed to debate. Everyone who files should be allowed to have their say unless there is a rule/law on the books that limits participates based on say amount of money they raised or signatures acquired, or something to that extent.
