3rd Party Candidates Stein & Johnson Debate Tonight! Nov 5, 2012

The Final Debate and the last chance to listen to two of the 3rd party candidates,

Green Party candidate Jill Stein

and

Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson

details here:

Free and Equal Elections Foundation today announced the political correspondents and media covering the November 5 Presidential debate. The debate will be held from 9:00 PM to 10:30 PM EST at RT America Studios in Washington, DC, broadcast live worldwide. Political correspondent coverage will occur from 8:00 to 9:00 pm.

For those looking for another choice tomorrow, try and catch this debate, who knows, one of them may just be the one you are looking for..

I am going to try and get the live stream, (bw issues usually prohibit any legible video streaming for me), fingers crossed that someoneon DIrecTV's lineup will take up RT's offer and broadcast their sat signal this evening..

How can I make a honest choice when the media silences the voices of other candidates on the ballot?

Thanks
some reason I thought I missed it last week.

Will be watching it.

It was originally scheduled for the 30th of Oct, but was postponed due to the storm that hit the Eastern US..

Thanks for the head's up. I watched the first debate, and found it riveting.

I have already made up my mind to vote for Gary Johnson, but my second choice would be Jill Stein. Should be a good debate.

For those who plan on trying to catch this online..

Scroll to the bottom of the article I linked, they have added a couple of links to the stream which starts at 8PM EST..

Found a possible TV broadcast..

Well, I am sure you know it, but I'll be watching for sure!

And to contribute:
Nader's third-party debate raises alternate issues

This time it looks as if the debate WILL actually happen haha. Though according to the article, the debate happened last night, perhaps even as originally scheduled. I am not sure how far the debate last night ended up going with last night's feed cutting out and whatnot, but I'll try to research it.

Here is a link to my thread about it last night, and the specific post I directed you to actually has a video clip of the debate (mostly Jill Stein talking, but something is better than others)

EDIT: I just miraculously found another link, with about 50 minutes of last night's recorded debate, follow the previous link to view it, or click here

The preshow is allegedly streaming live here:

My BW bites the big one.. the screen keeps spinning..

is anyone here with good BW able to see if the stream is working?

I created a thread on this already but I don't care, flag for you. I just want ATS members to watch it.

I honestly think we need to bring ATS back to its roots, new membership has taken this place far away from its origins.

LOL...hey now, not all newbies here are trolls and hoaxers; just the majority of them claiming to have a paradigm-shifting secret they want to reveal to humanity.

On topic: I'll be watching it, good thing my ballot's still blank ;P

Thank you

That link is working for me..

Sure hope that FSTV is broadcasting the debate on their TV channel, still getting buffering, but that's my Hillbilly broadband.. blasting at .76Mbps DL

Blast it on your facebook and twitter accounts, we have an opportunity to expose the two party monopoly before people stop caring.

Feel the same, I look for the day where the voters in the US have a choice, and not the spoon fed Dem-Rep decision, a real choice, that's why I feel so passionate about making sure that I watch this debate.

I want to make my choice tomorrow based on what I have heard from all the choices on the ballot.. not just the big two..

I do think that the power lies in Congress, that's why I submitted a question on term limits..

I think that a term limited Congress would be a big step toward eliminating the 2 party stranglehold in our national elections..

Just over 5 minutes to the debate...

SWEET!!! It's on FSTV... for those who have the ability

Loving this tax debate, A TRUE DEBATE! not that phony BS by the two party candidates.

GJ is a little too worked up/excited.

Jill Stein is more like a caring grandma or aunt.

definite contrast between these two.. however, the first question that they handled was far deeper than any question asked of the anointed 2....

Johnson - smaller govt

Stein - bigger govt

is what I get so far....

I am leaning towards the smaller government...

reply to post by JacKatMtn


Stein may be wanting a bit larger of a government, but the good news is it sounds like she would handle it correctly. OF course, I prefer small government any day but if I had to choose from current corrupt government that is huge and progressive government that is large, the decision is clear. I really just wish that there was a bit more unity... We get more people to vote, educate the two partied zombie-voters, and unify the third party platform... At least initially. Once people see that a third party can run, then I see no problem in "divisions". Right now though, the strategical game play would be to unite under one third party candidate IMO... Too late I know but... Maybe next time? I have a feeling that would get old quickly

I wholeheartedly agreed with Jill Stein on the Glass-Steagal act..

Still leaning towards... repealing the Patriot Act, NDAA, ending the wars, handling the Fed Reserve and IRS that Johnson mentioned in his opening statement, however you need a Congress that shares that view, otherwise it's just releasing certain bodily fluid into the wind?

I hope to see that day when our Congress truly represents the people..

I know Jill Stein means well but raising the corporate tax rate will cost us even more jobs. At the same time she wants to take the money (that we magically print up) we used to waste on big government and war and put it into green industry...that is nice to think about and all plus I LOVE green tech but it is an unsustainable model. At this point, Americans shouldn't be thinking about how we're going to THRIVE again, instead they should realize we need to be worrying about how we're going to SURVIVE.

Stein blaming the Sandy deal and the incoming Noreaster on "climate change" doesn't hit home for me..

edit to add..

Johnson is on board with that "climate change" deal as well.. though he's against (Cap & Trade)
