Here’s a concept for the GOP “debates” - how about having the moderators nail people when they don’t answer the question that was asked? If they can’t answer a straightforward question they shouldn’t be running for President.

And while you’re at it, Ben, how’s about upping the substantive level of debates by staying home!

What is Carson scared of? If he can’t answer questions in front of an audience how in the world will he deal with being POTUS?

This is what happens in this society - total propaganda! Ben Carson doesn’t want anything! It’s that damn liburl media thats …what?..
Ok, since you are asking Dr.Dr. Carson ( did I mention he’s a Dr?) would like to have the questions posed by ones own campaign manager, whilst perched atop the campaign unicorn*. Oh, and the polling percentage requirement to participate is hereby raised to 20%. Nah nah nah.
- Ponies will be accepted for the kiddy table debate.

Carson added that he would like fewer debates, and that he couldn’t see why “we need more than one a month.”
Translation: I think I’m on top now, and I want to pull the ladder up after me.

Basically, the GOP candidates want a GOP talking point infomercial, not a debate.
Anyone remember Cliff Clavin’s shock aversion therapy episode on Cheers? Every time he lied or acted like a douche, his therapist gave him a shock by remote control. At the next debate, the GOP candidates should all be wired up. A panel of well versed fact checkers should be just off the set. When any candidate lies, exaggerates, or goes over time and off topic, the moderators should be able to give them a mild warning tickle of a shock. If they persist after the warning, give them the full Cliff Clavin current. I’d expand this to all presidential debates for both parties. They’d be interesting debates to watch. It’d get Yuuuge ratings. The hilarious Cheers episode with Cliff’s shock aversion therapy:

Earlier Carson mused that perhaps debates should not be on TV, maybe You Tube or the internet. Really? Afraid to tell America what you think and look like?

Carson to the nation’s electorate:
“Can’t afford high bandwidth Internet access?
It sucks to be you.”

He also added that the collective group of candidates would vote one week before each debate on who the next debate’s moderators would be. Journalists who wish to campaign for these positions may campaign for these spots by submitting their debate questions no less than two weeks before each debate.
… But in no event shall questions deviate from the following themes:
Were you always so charming, beautiful, huge, magnificent, intelligent, giving, great, patriotic, blah blah blah… .?
Very funny scene, but there is no shock therapy yet developed that can stop these guys from lying, since even their facial expressions lie in the absence of speaking. Carson is especially good at feigning outrage over the relationship/no relationship claim re Mannatech.
Just come out and say it Ben! You only want voters to know what you want them to know about you. In other words, you are wanting to hide your true essence from the people at large. But this voter won’t stand for that!
