Real time fact checking for presidential debates
We cannot afford to have our democracy derailed by lies. Join me to ask Vice President Biden to participate in debates with Donald Trump only if the following condition is formally met:
The nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates to hire a real-time fact-checking team that’s approved by both candidates to report every 20 minutes and again 10 minutes before the debaters' final remarks, on any misleading statements or outright lies either candidate had uttered.
The nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates to hire a real-time fact-checking team that’s approved by both candidates to report every 20 minutes and again 10 minutes before the debaters' final remarks, on any misleading statements or outright lies either candidate had uttered.
Why is this important?
Far better not to have any debate rather than one in which a candidate is forced to spend his allocated time countering baseless facts and outright lies instead of outlining and explaining his policies.
