To: President Donald Trump
Request Barack Obama participate in an Online Debate
Dear President Obama,
The value of any democratic government is dependent upon the participation of that nation’s citizenry, and modern technological innovations provide the opportunity for a greater number of people to be more directly involved in the political process. Just as the television and the radio made it easier for candidates to develop a rapport with prospective voters, the Internet provides further opportunities. You are therefore invited to participate in an online debate hosted by Democracy++.
Sincerely,
[Concerned Voter]

Why is this important?
DemocracyPlusPlus.com is attempting to facilitate a more personal and accessible civil discourse between citizens and candidates for, or holders of elected office. We plan on using a combination of live video streaming with a one-time-use login for individuals to pose questions, then vote for those questions that they feel should be asked. Our hope is that these debates and question-answer sessions will foster a greater interest in politics among citizens and lessen the gap between holders of public servants and those they serve.
We create these petitions on behalf and at the request of individuals and concerned voters.
