The United States is in unprecedented distress: Economic defeated by China, wealth flows to China, China's military power is catching up with the United States, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have depleted of the vitality of the United States. On the basis of these problems, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) secretly laid the noose setting to the neck of the United States.
The root cause of the problem is that Americans do not recognize the Nazi nature of their main opponents, so there is no long-term plan to prevent the CCP.
So, you should let the President candidates discuss the topics of Nazi China.

Mr.Bob Schieffer, why are you and CBS so biased in their reporting and supportive of the Democratic party. Do you think that the American public is so naive that we can't see the blatant bias that leans to the left. On the Libya issues with the attack on the embassy, why try to excuse the obvious lack of responsibility to get the story correct before the administration makes a statement on it. I am so disappointed that journalism is not unbiased in its reporting. So much opinion and not just the facts. Trust me, we can make up our minds without being swayed by you and the major media.

How much did David Axelrod and the Democrat Party pay you and CBS News for the 'commercial' you delivered for the Obama campaign today?

Can you spell o-b-j-e-c-t-i-v-e? When there are two sides to a debate, aren't both sides allowed to participate on a 'news' show?

How can you decry the lack of shared approach to gov't after hosting such a partisan show?

A logical topic for a foreign policy oriented Presidential debate in Florida is Cuba. The greatest contrast between the two candidates is over travel.

President Obama has authorized for Cuban Americans unrestricted travel and remittances and opened licensed people to people travel for the rest of us.

Governor Romney has assured Cuban American Republicans that he will return to the Bush restrictions on travel, once every three years for Cuban Americans and very limited remittances, and the end of people to people travel.

The President has the power to go further, enabling all non-tourist travelers to use a general license that does not require an application or approval by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.

"However there is one possible omission: The [Republican] platform doesn't explicitly call for reversing the executive decision of President Obama that allowed for more travel to Cuba. Romney's camp, including Cuba-crackdown leader and former Congressman Lincoln Diaz-Balart, says no additional language is needed, in great part because Romney's campaign notes that he explicitly opposes Obama's executive decision to loosen travel and remittances to Cuba.""

Mr. Schieffer,

I will not be a future viewer of Face the Nation, CBS News, or CBS in general due to your and CBS's participation in the upcoming debates that are excluding other party candidates (namely Libertarian Gary Johnson) who are on the ballot(s).

President Obama was caught on an open mike promising Vladimir Putin through Pres. Medvedev that he would do something for him after this election when he would "be free to do what I want" or something very close to that phrase. You will be the first person to ask President Obama just WHAT he is promising to do for Mr. Putin after we re-elect him. Would you, will you do that?? Surely you wouldn't hesitate to ask Pres Bush that question, nor would you "warn" him. I will be fascinated to see if you do the right thing.

During the Presidentail Debates, please ask the canidates about their stance on Global Warming/Climate Change.

Do they believe Climate Change will become a serious threat to our food and water supply?

What will their administrations do to address the issues of Climate Change?

My suggested questions for upcoming Presidential debates (part 2):


FOREIGN POLICY:

Mitt Romney: Israel - What is your approach to facilitating peace in the Middle East? In your video tape from your May fundraiser, you said "you move things along the best way you can....You hope for some degree of stability, but you recognize that this is going to remain an unsolved problem,"..."We kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it". It seems you are saying "this is a problem so hard to solve, you are
giving up on it. Would you proactively try to facilitate peace in the Middle East, or do you truly elieve this is an unsolvable problem as you stated and therefore will wait for someone else to address it?

President Obama: Mitt Romney has critized you for not being a strong enough ally to Israel. How do you respond to that?

Mitt Romney: You have criticized the current Administration's policy when it comes to Iran and prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons capabilities. Can you specify if you were elected President, how your policy towards Iran would be different and what actions you would take differently from the current Administration?

President Obama: In Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech to the United Nations last week, he talked about drawing a red line around Iran's nuclear program, and stopping them before not after they reach 90% uranium enrichment - which could be as early as next spring or summer. What actions is the United States willing to make to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear capabilities and in what timeframe?

IMMIGRATION:
Help the American people understand your position on immigration? Should there be a legal path to citizenship for those already in our country? And if so,
does that include or not include exportation prior to re-admittance? Do you support the Dream Act?

LEADERSHIP:
To President Obama: It is felt your proposals on economic growth, stimuls and deficit reduction to the Republican-lead Congress were generally met with
opposition. Many in this country feel, Congress has done very little to act on these issues during your Administration. What would you do differently in your
second term, if elected, to come to move things through Congress?

To President Obama: One thing you have stated is that you need to engage the American people more in influencing Congress. Can you give examples of how you would do this?
