How many people here are going to watch the presidential debates?

Poll - Total Votes: 12
I will be watching the debates, because that's much more important to me than sports.
I'll be watching the football games, because sports is more important to me than politics.
I won't be watching either, because I don't care about sports or politics.
I won't be able to watch either, because I have other things going on.

I understand that two of the Presidential debates are scheduled on the same nights as National Football League games. So which will be a higher priority for you? Sports, or politics?

I'm not a sports fan myself, but even if I were, I would make it a much higher priority to watch the debates.

Here is the debate schedule:

Monday, September 26, 2016 - First presidential debate
Tuesday, October 4, 2016 - Vice presidential debate
Sunday, October 9, 2016 - Second presidential debate
Wednesday, October 19, 2016 - Third presidential debate

The debates will air from:

9:00 - 10:30 PM Eastern Time
8:00 - 9:30 PM Central Time
7:00 - 8:30 PM Mountain Time
6:00 - 7:30 PM Pacific Time

on all of these dates.

Although these dates were scheduled long before the football games were scheduled, I can't help wondering if Hillary and her fans are hoping that more people will want to watch football, as Hillary appears to be in poor health these days and may not be able to handle the stress of these debates. But if she can't handle the stress of these debates, how can she expect to be able to handle the stress of being president? That must be one of the most stressful jobs, if not the most stressful job, in the world. I can hardly wait to see how these debates play out. It should be very interesting.

Yes, and to see which one can tell the most lies. I [b]am[/b] interested in seeing just how well Hillary's health holds out. I imagine she'll be drugged up [b]pritty[/b] good, to make it through it all. She's a lot sicker than they're letting on.

Yeah, I'm sure she's probably been to see a doctor to get something to help her through these debates.

Oh yes.

debates are a joke.. candidates NEVER answer the questions and moderators NEVER press them to give a substantial answer..
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
I'm afraid that's usually true. But it should be interesting to see which candidate is more evasive than the other.

@TeresaRudolph71: Trump is going to be stupid..
Hillary is going to lie...

How many lies will Hillary tell when Trump presses her with the questions Hillary has refused to allow the media to ask her
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
My boyfriend recently told me that he has noticed that every time Hillary lies, she coughs. I haven't watched Hillary speak enough to pick up on this, but I'll be watching to see how many times she coughs during the debates, and what she's saying when she coughs. The body doesn't like it when we lie, so there's always some kind of physiological reaction that happens.

I have no interest in football!

I was all over watching the debates, not a sports fan. The debates are certainly interesting
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
Yes they were. I must admit, I was a little surprised that Hillary didn't collapse, have a seizure, or even have a coughing attack during any of them. But I'm sure that she must be getting some good medical care - probably much better than the rest of us could get.

@TeresaRudolph71: Sure what I really hated was Trump would have a good response for everything she said. She would make a smart Ass remark because she had no teal response and the Liberal audience thought it was great. They judged her the winner of the debates yet Yrump hande her Ass to her with facts. What a crock!

More bullshite and attacking one another, TALK about your own POLICIES for a change would be nice

I will be watching football. Less stressful and less lies.
