Here is the return mail I recieved from my representative about my concern over the limitations on the debates to the two major parties being unfair.

Dear Barbara:



Thank you for contacting me regarding the presidential debates. I am pleased to learn your views and the opportunity to share mine.



Like you, I believe that an open and inclusive series of debates that includes a meaningful exchange of ideas is beneficial to our democracy. As you know, the administration of presidential debates is handled by the Commission on Presidential Debates. I encourage you to contact the Commission on Presidential Debates at (202) 872-1020 to express your concerns regarding third party candidate involvement. You can also view their website at http://www.debates.org/



Again, thank you for letting me know your views. Please feel free to visit my website at www.house.gov/degette. There you can sign up for my e-newsletter to stay up-to-date on current events in Congress. I look forward to our continued communication.






Sincerely,

Diana DeGette
Member of Congress

Make those calls people, the website has no way to contact the organization so the phone is the only way. We need to let them know that we are more than a two party country and we need to hear from more than just two parties come debate time.

You're welcome. Hopefully we can get this resolved before the next debates happen so we can see more of what each and every party offers in terms of running this country.

I've already sent them mail about how they are depriving the American people the right to choose by limiting whose voices get to be heard.

Not shockingly, I didn't ever recieve any mail in response.

I hope that everyone gets this information so we can have more candidates in the debates than just the two parties candidates.

You're welcome. I hope this gets out to everyone, we need a fair system and this government was not based on restricting us to two parties to choose from.
