Key Topics for the Presidential Debate

The imminent presidential debate on Tuesday night will spotlight major topics, particularly the economy and immigration. These issues remain central to voters' concerns as election day approaches. Both candidates will have the opportunity to present their contrasting views, potentially influencing public perception and voter turnout.

The Impact of Inflation and National Debt

The Impact of Inflation and National Debt

Under the Biden-Harris administration, significant economic challenges have surfaced. With inflation rates exceeding 19%, many Americans are feeling the financial strain. Coupled with a national debt of $35.3 trillion, these economic indicators are critical in shaping the political discourse leading up to the election.

Scrutiny on Kamala Harris's Policy Changes

Vice President Harris's recent policy shifts have garnered attention ahead of the debate. From her stance on healthcare to immigration, her evolving views will likely be scrutinized during the debate, providing insight into her priorities and commitments as a candidate. Voters will be eager to hear her responses and how they align with her initial promises.

As the countdown to election day continues with just 58 days remaining, mail-in ballots are being sent out from at least 25 states this month. Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are gearing up for a highly anticipated presidential debate hosted by ABC News in Pennsylvania, a key battleground state. The debate is expected to cover critical topics like the state of the economy and immigration policy, which have become pivotal issues in the current political landscape. Under the current Biden-Harris administration, inflation has surged over 19%, while real wages have decreased nearly 2%. The national debt has ballooned to $35.3 trillion, with $7.5 trillion added in under four years. At the same time, illegal immigration remains a concern; over 8 million migrants have crossed the southern border, with approximately 2 million evading apprehension and entering the U.S. The Biden administration also reportedly lost track of around 320,000 unaccompanied minors, drawing criticism from various quarters. Conversely, Vice President Harris’s shifting policy positions are expected to face scrutiny during the debate. Changes such as her current opposition to Medicare for All, support for increased funding for a border wall, and stance on fracking will likely come under the spotlight. Observers note that her recent policy shifts raise questions about her core beliefs and how they align with voters’ expectations. The debate on Tuesday night could provide Harris with an opportunity to clarify her positions in light of recent criticisms about past inconsistencies. Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson shared insights on the upcoming debate, emphasizing its significance for both candidates. Carson suggests that the debate will be a moment of revealing truths, especially for Kamala Harris, who faces accusations of policy flip-flopping. He pointed out that as a candidate, Harris has the chance to outline what she truly believes, moving away from her previous stances. He suggests that the audience will be watching closely to see if she maintains consistency or distances herself from her prior statements regarding issues like healthcare and law enforcement policy.

In the current conditions, the chances of winning the upcoming presidential elections have greatly decreased. In order to change the current difficult situation, it is especially important to put forward a NEW IDEA (not a slogan), namely a NEW IDEA about a serious reform of the presidential system of governance. From the outside, the main drawback of the current system seems to be TWO ASPECTS: Firstly, the term of office. Considering the size of the USA in everything (economy, population, territory, influence and much more), and considering the inertia of processes with such impressive values, a presidential term of 4 years seems too short for serious changes. THE SECOND ASPECT is the re-election of the current president; two years after taking office, each president begins to think about future elections and becomes largely constrained in his decisions. I believe that the president of a great country should be freer from such pressure when making the right and necessary decisions FOR THE GOOD OF THE COUNTRY and think more about what mark he will leave in history, and not about electoral preferences. In todays political situation in the world, when global changes and reformatting of relations between countries are taking place, STABILITY OF POWER has become an advantage (unfortunately, only for autocracies and dictatorships). In order to take full advantage of democracy, power needs to be made more stable and consistent. TRUMP needs to declare his main goal if elected president - to reform the presidential power, propose constitutional changes for the presidential elections of 2028: the US president is elected for a term of at least 6 or 8 years WITHOUT THE RIGHT OF RE-ELECTION for a second term. The US needs a president for a term of 8 years WITHOUT THE RIGHT OF RE-ELECTION. At the same time, the importance of midterm elections will increase significantly.
