A suggestion for the VP-debate: torture Ryan
Each one gets a marker, a white-board and 15 minutes of time to explain their respective government's tax-policy for the next term.
No questions.
No restrictions.
No interruptions.
No breaks.
Just a guy on a stage and an attentive audience.
After those 15 minutes, further 5 minutes are reserved for questions from your opponent and the host.
Toss of coin decides who goes first.
If Ryan goes first, you will have the honour to watch him evade specifics for 20 minutes straight.
If Biden goes first, he won't have problems getting specific. Then Ryan will have to come up with something of his own. (Fake a heart-attack?)
