My debate format


I have a great idea for a new debate format that will keep the public interested and the candidates on their toes:



The debate format is similar to the game show 'Press Your Luck' and the entire debate is a 'Question Round'. There are 10 questions and the first candidate to buzz in gets to answer each question. Then, after the answer is given, a panel of celebrity judges gets to decide what the rating of the answer is. If it's a low rating, then the other candidate gets to give his rebuttal instantly. If it is a high rating, then the candidate who has not given an answer has to spin the big board and hope for "no wammies". He does not want to land on a wammy. If he does, then he has to do a physical challenge. Such as: finding a flag in a big, messy piece of pizza, or climbing across a jungle gym while being hit in the face with a gigantic water hose. Once he completes the physical challenge, he then gets to give his rebuttal. The 'Question Round' never lasts for more than 10 questions or until both candidates are too tired from the physical challenges and cannot continue, whichever comes first. Once the question round is complete, each candidate gets 5 minutes to talk about whatever they want without insulting the other candidate. However, this is not as easy as it sounds as they are attached to a lie detector during the entire final 5 minutes. If the candidate is caught lying, then Joe Rogan comes out and makes them do a stunt from 'Fear Factor', such as eating bugs or drinking something gross. After this round, the debate is over and America is polled on who won by Ryan Seacrest. Then there will be no questions as to who won the debate because as it stands now, each candidate wins and loses depending on which party you talk to.
