Washington: The whole world is interested in the presidential election in the superpower America. The political climate in the country is currently heating up as the presidential election approaches. Democratic leader Joe Biden is facing stiff competition as Republican leader and current President Donald Trump seeks re-election. The two will face off on the same stage in a few more hours. On September 29, the two leaders will face off in a public debate and face questions from rivals. In particular, the two will share their views on the current situation in the country, the economy, peace and security, as well as foreign policy, along with the track-records so far.
It has become the norm over the past few years for leaders vying for the presidency in America to openly discuss. Donald Trump is currently preparing for a face-to-face discussion with Jobiden. The Presidential Debates Commission (CPD) conducts three pre-election face-to-face discussions. The first discussion will take place on September 29. The first debate will take place under the auspices of Fox News anchor Chris Wallace. The other two talks, to be held on October 15 and 22, will be hosted by Sea-Span and NBC News. Trump recently revealed that he was already preparing for a presidential debate.
There will once be a similar debate between leaders vying for the vice presidency. Incumbent Vice President Mike Pence is running once again, while Kamala Harris is running for Democratic. Their face-to-face interview on October 7 will be hosted by USA Today journalist Susan Page. CPD co-chairman Frank Forenkoff said all arrangements had already been made for the presidential and vice-presidential debates. The show is expected to be watched by around 5 to 15 crore people.
First Presidential Debate ..!
Candidates for the presidency in the United States have been openly involved in face-to-face discussions since the 1960s. John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon participated in the first debate in Chicago on September 26, 1960. So that year the two candidates participated in the discussions four times. These talk shows were broadcast on TV. John F. Kennedy won the presidency in the ensuing election. Thus the program opened a new chapter in American politics. Since then the tradition of candidates in the presidential ring participating in face-to-face discussions has continued. The Presidential Debates Commission (CPD) was set up in 1987 to manage these impartially. However, the CPD does not receive any funding from the government or from any political party or candidate. Analysts believe that if candidates win by participating in such public debates rather than in person during the election campaign, voters will be able to easily know the procedures to be followed and the programs to be undertaken.
