GPT-3 on year-round political debates
Assess the merit of this following idea: Why are public debates between politicians limited to the few weeks before elections? Let's begin to put up our best people against their best people to debate the issues before Congress.

The all-important, non-negotiable, condition is that the two contenders be completely civil and polite. No moderator, no questions. They alternate talking for five minutes each throughout the entire debate. The moment either shows disrespect for anyone or anything, (examples of such disrespect shown on YouTube so that everyone knows the rules) they automatically lose, and the time left is given to the winner to say whatever they want about whatever they want.
The other part is that if after the debate one or the other debater is found to have lied, they lose the right to participate in future debates, and their side loses ten minutes of time to the other during the next debate. And because most people work during the day, the conversations should begin at 9pm EST, with the west coast leaving for home an hour earlier so that they can watch at 6pm PST.

This is an interesting idea, as it could provide an opportunity for voters to understand the different perspectives of the candidates in a more direct and unfiltered way. It would also encourage respect and civility, as the consequences for disrespect or lying would be significant. Additionally, the time frame and the time of day could be beneficial, as it would enable those who work during the day to watch the debates.
However, it is important to consider that this idea would likely require a lot of logistical planning and organization. It would also be important to decide on a fair and unbiased way to determine if a candidate is lying or being disrespectful, as this could potentially be open to interpretation.
Additionally, some candidates may be more eloquent and persuasive than others, so it would be important to ensure that the debates are fair in that regard.
