I think this is a great point. All the moderators are media personalities without a background so they can’t really claim expert knowledge on the issues. But the panel of experts I think is spot on to create this basis of expertise or fact. The single follow up used to be the norm. e.g. “candidates have 2 minute responses with a 30 second follow up” (strictly adhered to time)
Candidates go straight to personal attacks :/
yes plz :)
