Patch Is Collecting Questions for Obama and Romney During the Next Presidential Debate

If you have a question for the candidates, submit it in the comments section below and it could be asked during the televised Oct. 16 Town Hall Presidential Debate.

 

If last Wednesday’s presidential debate left you with more questions than answers, here’s your chance for the presidential candidates to address the issues that most matter to you.

The next presidential debate will be a town hall meeting format at Hofstra University in Long Island, where voters will ask President Obama and Mitt Romney about domestic and foreign policy.

Patch is asking you, our readers, to participate by submitting questions for the candidates.

All you have to do is post your question in the comments section below and we’ll send it to the Commission on Presidential Debates. The Commission is partnering with Patch's parent company AOL, along with Google and Yahoo, to take questions from web users across the country.

Don’t wait until Nov. 6 to have a say in this year’s election. Share your thoughts in the comments!

My husband owns a small business, an "S Corp", which makes him the target of the tax increases proposed by the President. He is also already being hit with additional taxes to support the new health care system, even though he provides health care to his employees. After four years of barely surviving, at times going without paying himself, he would like to expand his buildings and hire more people, but will be held back by these new taxes. Adding insult to injury, he and others like him seem to be under attack by the President and Vice President as they campaign against "the rich", saying they will "ask" them for a trillion dollars. I realize neither the President nor Vice President have ever met a payroll, so I ask, "Do you realize additional taxes will take money small businesses need to add more jobs?"

Will you launch a team to encourage major corporations to manufacture goods in America? For example the manufacture of household items, clothing, baby items, etc. Re-entry will create millions of jobs (without a scientific study, it's just common sense). Does'nt require a tax cut but does require tax incentives (credits).
