CNN/DNC: We Want a REAL debate between Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden

On March 15, 2020, a debate is scheduled for the two remaining front runners for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. CNN and the Democratic National Committee have decided to suddenly and significantly change the format—switching to a town hall format where audience members ask preauthorized questions while candidates sit behind desks.

Why is this important?

This is not a REAL debate. Now that we are down to just 2 viable candidates for the nomination, we need a true debate where both candidates have the opportunity to challenge one another on their records and visions for the future.

It is also crucial for us to see which candidate has the capacity and ability to withstand the pressure of a debate with Trump. This election is far too important to be soft on candidates now. CNN and the Democratic National Committee MUST give the public what they need and revert to a traditional debate format.
