What are your thoughts on the current debate system where certain 3rd party candidates are not allowed to participate in the debates?
Do you think this practice allows for “free and open” elections?

Again, are you still in favor of such a high entry into the debates, knowing that this is the best tool that third party candidates have to challenge the ideas of the primary parties?
