I will let others rail about the unfairness of the current U.S. Democratic debate schedule. It's designed for Hillary Clinton's coronation rather than producing a well-informed electorate.

Please mark your calendars and plan to watch, because there are only four (4!) debates before the beginning of the primaries in Iowa:
Speaking of informed voters, those of us who support Bernie Sanders' ideals find the Republican debates almost too painful to watch. A partial solution is to tune in to #DebateWithBernie on Twitter during GOP events. Bernie live tweets for We The People about a wider range of issues than the billionaire-bought-- or, in Trump's case, billionaire-buying-- politicians. He also comes up with a few zingers where appropriate. I, for one, want to laugh rather than groan the next time I watch a GOP event.
