Please - Open the Debates!

Why should the PDC (Presidential Debate Commission) be allowed to choose who the USA see in the debates? This is a partisan entity.

Wiki:
The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) was established in 1987 by the Democratic and Republican parties to establish the way that debates between candidates for President of the United States are run. The Commission is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) entity as defined by Federal US tax laws, funded entirely by corporate contributions.

The Commission is headed by Frank Fahrenkopf, a former head of the Republican National Committee, and Paul Kirk, a former head of Democratic National Committee.

Do you ever think we will see real change if this is the group that decides who has access to the media.

Look at what happened with Jesse V when he got in the debates - he went from 10% to winning.

OPEN THE DEBATES!!!
