Final Two Alternative Party Presidential Debates

There are two, at least to my knowledge, alternative party presidential debates remaining. The first is tonight’s from Nader.org.

Ralph Nader to Host Third-Party Presidential Debate in D.C. Nov. 4

The candidates from four political parties – Gary Johnson (Libertarian), Jill Stein (Green), Virgil Goode (Constitution) and Rocky Anderson (Justice) – will meet for a two-hour debate on Sunday, November 4, 7:30 p.m. at Busboys and Poets restaurant located at 2021 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20009. …

Political debates should not be rationed. They should become more numerous, innovative and extend beyond the narrow routine of the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), created in 1987. The CPD is still captured by the Republican and Democratic Parties, memorialized through a written, exclusive agreement every four years between the two candidates.

The event is open to media only … .

To view the debate, go here. I still find the “media only” thing a bit strange, but I suppose limited money means limited space.

Tomorrow night is the final Free and Equal Debate with Green Party’s Jill Stein and Libertarian Party’s Gary Johnson,

… a line-up decided by voters … after the first debate moderated by Larry King between Johnson, Stein, Constitution Party candidate Virgil Goode, and Justice Party candidate Rocky Anderson. The first debate was one of the top trends on Twitter, and an even bigger social media buzz is expected for this second debate.

The debate will be held from 9:00 PM to 10:30 PM EST, at RT American Studios in Washington, DC.

Free and Equal Elections Foundation … announced the political correspondents and media covering the November 5 Presidential debate. … Political correspondent coverage will occur from 8:00 to 9:00 pm.
