There really should be buzzers or fact checkers in debates to BUZZ when candidates are lying.

Electric shock collars around the candidates necks, jolts administered to be decided by CBO, factcheck.org, whatever organizations can be determined to be fair if any.

And have a 2 minute "shot clock" visible in front of them (so the debaters can see it, and and behind them so all the observers can see it.) When time's up, the debater's mike is cut off and camera cut away, so the moderator can tell the other debater his time is about to start. No exceptions. If the debater tries to continue talking, he gets shocked.

And have more than the Big Two party candidates in these debates. Libertarian, Green, Communist, Constitution, any other decent size parties, at least pick a couple to make it at least a four way debate. It might make things more honest.

I know this is all fanciful, but can we at least have the electric shock collars?
