Miriam,
I've put it on my calendar, but I find that I can forget it even then.
I suppose it might help to look at my calendar a couple of times each
day. I usually begin with good intentions, and remember it the next
day. I think that the last "debate" that I watched was John Kennedy
and Richard Nixon. I thought I would really learn something. Shame
on me! The "talking heads" who commented following the "debate",
talked mostly about how un photogenic Nixon was, and that his looks
would probably cost him huge numbers of votes. On the other hand,
Kennedy, according to the wise commentators, would never be elected
because Americans did not want their nation run by the Pope.
I had thought the debate would be on issues...but I can't recall a
single one, after so many years. Still, the shallow minds of the
"Talking Heads" made a lasting impression.

So I've been thinking about possibly watching it or finding out if it will
be on one of the internet stations I have on my stream where her stuff
occasionally appears. But the thing is, I haven't listened to any of the
debates and I'm not sure why I should behave differently regarding this one,
just because it's called a forum and Amy is moderating it. I think that the
last time I watched a debate was in 2012 and it was one portion of a debate
between Obama and Romney.
