The issue is how much they agree.

This fact is squarely at odds with a primary claim made about ... MOREMotivating Youth To Watch Presidential Debates
by Katie Kieffer. Hit the gym; grab dinner with friends; build a bonfire. These are three evening activities I prefer to watching presidential debates—and I am a political commentator.
