What should a presidential debate sound like?

Note how well spoken, polite, and knowledgeable Kennedy and Nixon are. Especially Kennedy. Now compare this to Trump vs. Biden.

I adore people who are well spoken and articulate. I voted for Obama for that reason... was VERY smooth. Unfortunately Slick Politicians, who are calm, and smooth, and who seem VERY plausible...seldom are.

John F. Kennedy was part of the Congressional Team, along with Joe Biden, who invented the term, "Borking" between them. We are suffering from that vicious legacy still.

@4meAndyou I'll have to look up borking. I know about the other ruse using crime figures.
