Change the Format of our Presidential Debates

The current debate format doesn't allow for either candidate to fully explain the significance of their position. Under the current format the candidates only spend a few minutes at best on any particular topic. For those that are highly educated on the topic, this is usually plenty of time. But for those of us who might be some what ignorant about the subject, the current format only leads to more confusion, with each candidate trying give quick media soundbites. If each debate focused on one issue it would be harder for candidates to mislead and easier for citizens to make a truly educated vote.
