Dear Jeff:
Last week Tueday from Long Island, New York, Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Republican & United States President Barack Obama, an Illinois Democrat held their IInd debate. It was done in a town hall or "in the round" style where questions could be asked & is also a style that is more freewheeling.
65 million plus viewers watched it in the United States alone. I am sure that among the many viewers were political science & history students across Alberta in post-secondary schools. Not to mention the social studies students in elementary, junior high, & high school who are watching the debates to understand how politics work. Its great to see the issues of the day talked about in real time on a stage. These debates let voters decide who is the best candidate for the toughest political office on the planet. They also get future voters excited about voting when they reach voting age. As well as maybe thinking of running IV political office themselves &/or helping on other campaigns.
Either A IInd Term IV The XLIVth President Or A Ist Term IV The XLVth President,
Rory
