Join us in Denver for the “Open the Debates Super Rally” during the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Open the debates and take democracy back from the bipartisan, corporate tyranny of The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD).
To ensure that only members of the Democratic and Republican Party are allowed to participate in national presidential debates, the CPD requires that candidates poll at least 15% nationally, as measured by the average of five corporate media polls. When the NONPARTISAN League of Women Voters hosted debates, they employed a fair 5% rule as measured by independent polls.
Help us challenge the CPD during the “Open the Debates Super Rally” on August 27th in Denver to end corporate control over our electoral process. Special guests TBA.
