Fox News and Google are teaming up in the upcoming GOP debate on 9/22 where;
"Viewers will be able to vote on the questions they want the candidates to answer, and Fox News will use the votes to help choose which questions are posed to the candidates. In addition, Fox News and Google will present public data and Google search trends on air to help provide context to the questions and inform the debate throughout the evening."

The questions are on Youtube here! It is in our best interest to pose and vote up the most relevant questions. The highest current rating is 27 and that ain't diddly squat for the formidable RPF crew!

I posted this one:

Pakistan is increasingly becoming an obstacle to our "War on Terror", they are nuclear armed, corrupt, radicalized and untrustworthy. Do you support military intervention to remove their nuclear capabilities, or favor continuing to send hundreds of millions a year in military aid?

Jebby Sanderson, Ames, Iowa

Vote it up!
 
Let's see if we can get Alexa to submit a video question. She's young, enthusiastic, attractive, articulate...something Fox News would want to play on air.
 
There are some decent questions out there, everyone should go vote and/or post questions.
 
I like this one

"This question is for everyone except for Dr. Paul. None of you were able to predict the housing financial crisis before it happened. While hindsight is 20/20, and you're all saying the right things NOW, why should I vote for you instead of Dr. Paul?"

It does give them the opportunity to attack him, but he excels at making good points defending his positions.

Keep voting these great questions UP UP UP!

lol!I think it's great, it brings the debate to Ron Paul. Lots of great headlines could be made with that question ; )
Right now its on the post popular questions page apx 5 down with 34 votes up 6 votes down. Under the category "Jobs and Economy"

There is absolutely no reason we shouldn't completely dominate the list of top voted questions.

lol! Yeah, like Fox would EVER in a million years ask that question. Could you imagine?! lol. There's a conspiracy against Ron Paul.

it looks like this is already happening. just went to check out the most popular questions and they are PERFECT. only ron paul supporters could come up with such important and substantial questions.
 
The CNN/Politico Debate did the same thing in the last election but they didn't start from the #1 voted question & then went down the list. They just cherry-picked questions from the thousands they received.

Are they for sure asking all of the top rated questions? Or is it still up to them which ones will be asked?
 
I went through the first 3 or 4 pages of "top rated" questions and didn't see any I "disliked" :)

I'm sure they will cherry pick, but worst case scenario - anyone voting on questions will have some food for thought.

Yeah, but we should primarily be voting up questions that would either make look Ron look extremely good or make Perry/Romney/Bachmann look extremely bad, IMO.
