So the presidential debate - I found it kind of boring and I feel like I learned nothing new from watching it. I think presidential debates need entirely new format... as Super Smash Bros battles

Compared to the debate, I honestly would rather see Hllary and Trump play Super Smash Bros against eachother - while discussing issues here and there while playing. And with the in-your-face banter common to playing Smash intact. We'd see the real Trump and the real Hillary - not their debate facade. 

It would of course be entertaining to watch them play (even if they were bad at the game...). But I feel like this would be a context where we'd find it okay for Clinton to be as smug as she wants and to let Trump lay on whatever incredibly offensive zingers he likes.

But besides the entertainment factor, I also feel like this would accomplish something else the debates don't give us: it'd give us a deeper, more authentic look into the kind of strategy and decision making process each candidate has. Then add the VP candidates and likely cabinent members in - let's see how one core team of the presidency operates vs. another in battle. Is one person ready and able to strike alone when they need to? Does the VP make the ticket a perfect wombo combo? How does one candidate really respond when exposed to their opponents weakness? To their teammates? To their own?

So lets forget the debates on NBC, PBS, FOX, CNN, and the other networks. Instead let the candidates...
