supposedly the debate is centered on "race" from what I heard.

 Isn't it a little disappointing that the proclaimed "top tier" don't debate??  It conveys to me the real belief that they feel that they are better off not answering questions and arguing policies which is scary.

GET CONGRESS ATTENTION! CHANGE YOUR W-4 AT WORK AND CLAIM 10 DEPENDENTS SO NO TAXES WILL BE TAKEN FROM YOUR PAYCHECK. WHEN THE MONEY STOPS COMING IN MAYBE THEY WILL REMEMBER THEY ARE SERVANTS TO WE THE PEOPLE.

the debate is apart of a PBS presidential forum series that the Democrat and Republican committees agreed to be apart of concerning race I gather (though it seems that the republicans didn't take their committment seriously). 

 Here is info from PBS:

 Here is the press on the suppossed "top tier" candidates not going to attend (to which Tancredo also has declined as well)

With Tavis Smiley at the helm, I wouldn't go either.

Soooooooo.  The debate seems to have been put together for a selective audience.  I think I would like to know more about it.

Remember Tom also has said he will not participate in the Spanish language debate.  "You cannot vote (well some do but you are not legally eligible to vote) unless you are an American Citizen, and to become an American Citizen you have to be able to speak and understand the English language".

Remember also that Tom was the only GOP candidate that accepted the invitation to speak at the NAACP convention.

Tom Tancredo has gone out of his way to attend legitimate venues, and he should not be faulted for forgoing this PBS function, and the Spanish language debate.  It seems there are specific debates set to trap specific candidates--particularly to drive them away from participation, so they can be faulted by some liberal agenda.

He has done everything he can to get the message out to people that we our a country of legal citizens that have to share a common language in order to operate in a sensible, logical and lawful manner.

I do not fault tancredo but think he should not miss an opportunity to be able to be seen on nearly every TV in the country even without cable!!!

 No matter that it is a leftist production and channel at that.

Being so leftist, I think they would have edited things out, and edited Tom out, to suit their own whims.  That's why I am glad he didn't go.

I don't think they could because it will be LIVE.....

the previous debate from the MSM (not the more fair value voters debate) saw a BIAS towards the "top tier" and did not allow all candidates to answer the same question (another extreme bias).

This debate even though from the leftists has an advantage because they won't have the "top tier" there to show favoritism to.

The big "media" are so blatantly "crooks" but that is elementary since they are "owned" by crooks (the same ones that own the majority of Congress).
