chloedancer My community college had a showing of the debate in campus. The most disgusting thing was one of the debaters saying some phrase to clearly pander to someone, and in my campus, in front of the projector screen, some people would APPLAUD, loud and annoying. Yes, we all know more students should graduate without debt, you clapping isn't going to make it happen, or people realize it's important, they are only trying to get you to nod your head at home. I wanted to say that out loud, but the place was clearly filled with the same idiots these debates are for, so I simply left in shame that I was dragged in as well.

Daniel Gehring My intention was not to make it sound like I wanted it to be entertaining (as it is now) but interesting in the way that actual important topics would be discussed in a proper manner.

***** You're right, I misspoke. The point I wanted to get in was that a debate is designed specifically to give each party as much time as they need to respond fully without needing to fear interruption like one might get from a more conversational tone; cutting the mike probably would not answer the bigger problems with the PUSA debates, as you say, but it would legitimize them as an actual debating forum.

Daniel Gehring Maybe the best option would be to have different segments. Some where each participant have a limited non-interupted time to speak and some where they can interrupt, chess clock like.

In the UK we have prime ministerial debates but the audience has to keep silent. It makes much more sense that way, otherwise it just feels like you're watching a football and it becomes a contest of who can play to the audience and get the most cheers rather than who can provide the most substantive answer.

The questions were chosen from suggestions made in the school's Facebook page, and the moderators (all teachers) had time to complement questions and force the candidates back to topic. even though it was not made in a chess clock system, it was very good and very clarifying.

How to make this beneficial to somebody who has the power to change that? And of course who has the power to change that? The candidates? If so there should be two intellectuals running for president... Maybe there are other options? 4. I live in Lithuania and we had our independence for 20 years and we do have audience in our debates, but its 10 people per debater (up to 50 total) and if they react twice during the debating they get kicked out. Moderators are professional journalists who use questions and topics provided by experts of their fields. To show what do I mean professional I could show 3 or 5 clips in our last elections if they were was an English version where candidate gets creamed by the moderator asking to follow up or provide proof in numbers. Trust me it was as satisfying to watch as stand up comedy. And I am barging because I very proud however I fully realize that we just haven't had the time to screw this up yet :)

WE NEED TO PETITION THIS!!!!!!!! Amazing recommendations! AND its not BIASED!

Vox is always ahead of the curve. Best news analysis site.

SO.................4 YEARS LATER NOTHING HAS CHANGES JUST BECOME EVEN WORSE

I won't hold my breath for this changes.

great reporting, loving this channel

Good suggestions here. I'd also be interested to see the candidates ask each other questions.

This should’ve played before Tuesday’s debate...

Getting rid of the audience literally made it worse

Great video, thank you Vox and Kathleen Hall Jamieson!

I like all of these ideas that this lady is suggesting.

They should defiantly cut the mic of the non speaking member.

Yes but the problem with that is that nobody will hear the other candidate being rude. The public needs to get a picture of a candidate's personality and if we turn off the mic you wouldn't be able to see if they have good manners or an acceptable temperament.

That's not too big of a deal: a candidate trying to interrupt in that situation would still be heard through the other candidate's microphone, just not very well. Also, you'd still see them trying to speak.

For the chess clock idea, what stops someone from just immediately hitting the clock once the other person pushes it?

@danielvincentkelley

7 жыл бұрын

There could be a rule that each hit of the button must be followed by at least 5 seconds of response during which neither button is active to switch the clock. That should be enough time to complete a sentence. The reason that they wouldn't do it, is because unless they have something keen to say, then they're wasting the time they have to say valuable stuff toward getting themselves elected. The chess clock is a count down timer. So they would each have exactly equal time to say their part.

@Arian545

Or their microphones should be cut off when it is not their time to speak so they can't actually interrupt at al

@Gottenhimfella

7 жыл бұрын

At the very least, the microphones can be linked to the chess clock so that only one voice can be heard at a time. There would also need to be a minimum time (as +danielvincentkelley suggests) It's an interesting question how any such rules could nevertheless be exploited to gain unfair advantage; I guess at best it would remain an arms race. Perhaps the moderator could override in egregious cases of abuse, like a referee.

@Mlogan11

The chess clock model means only one person will be able to get the last word in on a topic- so the one who uses their time to keep cutting in will run out of time, giving the other person the last word without interruption.

@PoochieCollins

+JustinBobcat : hitting the button to interrupt the other candidate uses their own time clock, so there's still a cost: the more time you use to interrupt the other candidate, the less you have to respond to the main topics yourself. This of course assumes that mics would in fact be muted when a debater's off the clock.

First decent, not wildly biased Vox video in a while.

Anyone else watching this after the disaster that was the first 2020 Presidential debate?

No audience and chess clock seem like reasonable ideas. Not going to happen tho. The debates are just a TV show.

awesome video vox. I feel that Trump and Kaine in a lesser sense had no real accountability to truly back up their interruptions. All they had to do was cut in and then there was doubt in the viewers minds. I believe there should be a time when the other candidates mic is simply off and they can't interrupt each other. Then the other time can be in the chess format where they have the ability to respond, yet not be interrupted.

Luli Unwin I would say the same about Hillary, if fact any intelligent rational human should hate both candidates equally. It's choosing between getting hanged or poisoned, they both end up killing you.

I love this! I'm so glad you are doing this. I really, really agree. (I'm from New Zealand, btw.)

Why not just cut their mic's if they keep talking or interrupting?

this aged well....

I really agree with these ideas. Watching these debates is so exhausting and almost nothing gets done. I come out of it just feeling more frustrated than informed.

This is great, thanks Vox!

These are great ideas! I hope we can see some of them in four years.

Thank you for this channel.

This is why I agree that a judge or a former judge would be a good moderator. Especially if given a gavel, they have to pay attention to the details and and they can stop the candidates when they start interruting and getting off topic

Maybe fix the debates by having a moderator that's not stupendously biased?

This model is a great idea. We need to get news out of the debates. This is something everyone should support regardless of your political affiliations.
