The Presidential debates are stifling our democracy. They routinely and purposefully exclude third-party candidates to preserve the corrupt duopoly of the Democrat and Republican parties. The 15% polling threshold for appearing in the debates is intentionally set high enough to make certain no third-party candidate will ever see the debate stage, trapping generation after generation of American voters in the stale two-party system and fooling them into believing they have no choice other than the two-party candidates.

Since the Commission on Presidential Debates, along with the two main parties it serves, will never willingly agree to lower the threshold and allow for a real debate showcasing a wider array of parties and viewpoints, overwhelming economic pressure must be brought to bear to force them to open the debates to third-parties. To this end, we, the undersigned, pledge as follows:

We will boycott the goods or services of any person, corporation or institution, public or private, that sponsors the Presidential debates or advertises during their broadcast.
