Best Reality Show Ever

I'm ready to endorse Alex Tabarrok's proposal that we make our presidential candidates participate in a kind of game show so that we can better evaluate their presidenting skills, and can also get behind Kathy G.'s addendum to add more gender equity into the mix.

At first I thought you had misspelled Alex Trebek. But still, he would be a great host.

Without knowing who the trucker and scuba diver instructor are, as long as the "distinguished economist" is Tabarrok I'm sure their plans would be better (why? see tinyurl.com/39zpvw ).

Here's a much better debate format:

Wouldn't debates like that be a tremendous public service? Wouldn't they reveal who's best for the job? (One addition: each candidate can bring along their own experts to help them answer the questions).

When can we expect MattY to help promote these type of debates?
