Oh no, not another presidential candidate debate

Another debate for presidential candidates tonight and we can only hope it will be more informative than most of those already held.  Hopefully, moderators will ask sensible questions and candidates will give us a better idea of what they would do to solve some of the nation's problems.  And boy, do we have problems -- high unemployment, debt out of sight, spending out of control, harmful regulations--just to start.

What, specifically, will a candidate do, if elected, to create jobs?  Acting alone the president can eliminate some of the regulations that discourage companies from hiring and banks from lending.  With the cooperation of  Congress the president can cut spending and start paying down the national debt.  What about health, energy and other problems? Let us have some serious discussions.

Am I asking for too much if I want the moderators to avoid trying to cause a conflict and name calling and for the candidates to leave  behind negative comments and give us some ideas as to how they would best solve the nation's ills?
