Presidential Debate Pros And Cons
Presidential Debate Response The final Presidential Debate took a turn for the more civil side as opposed to the previous endeavours involving cordiality and the lack thereof. Egos and insults alike softened in anticipation of reaching the audience as speech moderator, Chris Wallace, discouraged any cheering and booing in accordance to the direct consideration of all in the process of voting. Upon first pretenses, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton did not shake hands and only acknowledge each other's presence once they both starting talking. Their attire was both formal as respectively Clinton’s dress was a bit more feminine from the tradition of having all male presidents. The setup was similar to the first debate as there was a podium for two along with a two minute timer; both of which did not pay much attention to.
Both of the candidate received the same questions that included both the question and a lead in as the determine the individual's opinions. As expected and both anticipated controversial topics upon: abortion, 2nd Amendment rights, immigration, foreign policy, public policy, and economic doctrine was discussed as the formality and decency gradually

There was no new discussions rather than the overall jargon of immigration and jobs with the slight difference of ideas like abortion and court appointments to restore the concept of justice to American families. I do give considerable praise to the moderator as he remained as neutral as can be while still correcting improper behavior quickly and respectfully. Whoever wins shall declare it a pyrrhic victory in the history books and gathered thought alike.

    debates have occurred regularly and are becoming institutionalized as a practice in American elections. Third-party candidates have fewer chances to join presidential debates, especially if the two major party candidates do not agree to debate them. Unless it becomes in the interest of both parties to have a third-party candidate debate, as it was in 1992 with Ross Perot, it will be very difficult for third-party candidates to become a part of the presidential debates. Even though third parties have debated each other in presidential election years, the fate of third parties in receiving national coverage or joining the two major party candidates in presidential debates is uncertain. It is also unclear how much effect debates have on American…

    At the first debate where estimated 100 million people watching, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton shook hands with smile on the stage, and Lester Holt of NBC nightly news explained the rule of the debate. It was a temperament test for Trump to prove that he is suitable for the President. However, he failed to do so in my opinion. This debate proves that he is not sincere, not patient enough to listen, not honest, not prepared enough, and absolutely not suitable for being the President.…

    On Election Day in 2000, candidate Al Gore was ahead of his rival George. W. Bush in the popular vote, while Bush led in electoral votes. In the final moments of the election, a recount of Florida votes worked in Bush’s favor, and he ultimately won the election. Although George Bush lost the popular vote, the electoral vote allowed him to win. This election is a prime example of the effectiveness and priority of the Electoral College, though many people question whether the Electoral College should be abolished for the newly announced National Popular Vote Plan. Despite these beliefs, the Electoral College should not be reformed for the National Popular Vote Plan due to multiple reasons. To assess the importance of the Electoral College, we must first go back in time to the origin of this great country called America.…
