that a candidate has to prove that they can think on their feet and show their level of knowledge on different subjects. Other than that it's just a bunch of canned stump speeches where they are never challenged. There are undoubtedly times when a president is going to have to think on their feet and make snap decisions. The debate gave voters the opportunity to see the candidates temperament and how well a president can think on their feet once elected.
