Over the past several decades, the influence of ordinary voters has been overshadowed by the interest groups who now administer the debates with increasing control over the agenda, tone and expectations of the process. Our goal is to provide a citizen-driven forum by truly democratizing the debates and providing a meaningful role for regular citizens and grassroots movements to engage, vet and judge our country's potential leaders. Two moderators will pose their own questions to the candidates, and another will facilitate citizen questions submitted in advance by convention attendees and activists from across the country.
Moderated by Matt Bai and Joan McCarter with audience questions facilitated by Jeffrey Feldman.
Candidates include: Sen. Hillary Clinton, Sen. Chris Dodd, Sen. John Edwards, Sen. Mike Gravel, Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Sen. Barack Obama, Gov. Bill Richardson
