At least you aren't subjected to the mess of a debate we've had between 
candidates in Canada. For one, they always reject allowing the only true 
right-wing candidate, Maxime Bernier, from participating. He's "Hitler," 
after all. Whoever remains just spends the next two hours saying "we need 
to spend more on x, shame on whoever is in power for not spending on x." 
It's laughable, especially when our Prime Minister spends every debate 
talking over everyone to make himself look good. For some reason, citizens 
think that a guy who needlessly interrupts and talks over everyone's 
answer is strong.
