This is Obama&#8217;s largest advantage to date and coincides with his winning performance in Tuesday&#8217;s debate, as well as his spending spree on TV ads. But left out of the debate as usual, were third party candidates like Cynthia McKinney the Green, Bob Barr the Libertarian, and Ralph Nader, the Peace and Freedom Party candidate. What would presidential debates look like with a plethora of voices instead of just the two major party candidates? We won&#8217;t know for a while yet. But here on KPFK, you can hear these third party candidates who have been shut out of the mainstream media. Ralph Nader, along with his running mate were campaigning in California when the first presidential debate happened in late September.
