Well here it is in all its glory. The only presidential debate possibly in the history of the world that is hand picking the candidates that you will hear. What a field it is with each participant more reactionary and bloated than the next, most in bed with billionaire power brokers and no message for the people except Ronald Reagan is the great one and I never heard of George W. Bush.
Gov. John Kasich of Ohio is in and former Gov. Rick Perry of Texas is out of Fox News’s Republican debate on Thursday night in Cleveland, officials with the network said Tuesday, resolving the mystery of which lower-polling candidates will make the cut for the first debate of the 2016 presidential contest.
The network announced the 10 candidates who will have a podium spot for the main forum, which is expected to draw wide national viewership and give an invaluable platform to the candidates involved. The remaining seven will be part of an earlier forum airing at 5 p.m. that day.
Fox News’s “decision desk,” which does its election night calls, sifted through five national polls, including the network’s own survey released late Monday, to select the top 10 candidates for the debate based on the polling.
