Debates? We don't need no stinkin' debates.

It is clear that the overwhelming majority of voters want the
candidates to sit still and discuss issues. Voters want to be
enlightened; they want to understand the important issues
in order to cast their support and ballots intelligently.

The candidates (most of them anyway) have a different plan.

They intend to manipulate voters and the entire process
in order that the candidate with the most money wins.

Instead of looking forward to intelligent and thoughtful
discussions of critically important issues (half of our children
are dropping out of school before graduation),
voters can look forward to being buried in negative campaign
ads everywhere they look.

Every candidate claims their intention to fight for and serve the public.

Why in the world would we believe that, that is their real intention upon election; when it is so clearly not their real intention now?

Why in the world would we believe that our legitimate questions about the public interests and their public service will receive candid, forthright, and honest responses after their election, when those same questions are currently not only being ignored, but suppressed, link?

How is this government of the people, by the people, and
for the people?
