a forum for debate to have ration and dialogue at emory university he joins us via skype from atlanta thanks so much for being with us so in the past the weather having in these in the past these events have been relatively civil what kind of tone do you expect this time around i suspect the tone to be one that speaks to the moment that at the current moment we have a lot of people who have or are unemployed we have a tremendous number of people who are sequestered in their homes and that the goal will be to speak to the plight of those particular people and i think that that will come from the biden campaign as that you alluded to will constantly speak to coronavirus as a part of the conversation but i also think that in talking about the economy and featuring that that the donald trump campaign and the donald trump performance will also speak to the urgency of now demi debates can be dangerous can they for candidates what are the potential pitfalls for each of them. i think that one of

the pitfalls for donald trump has to do with the fact that there are only 80 people in the audience that he is someone who feeds off of the energy of the audience of the people who are there and he is actually pretty brilliant at reading what the tone is of the environment that he's in and what the audience needs from him that there is not a lot of messages that are being sent amongst those 80 people and i fear from his behalf of on the campaign that he will get bored he will be seen as look carjacked that it would look like he was stressed because he doesn't have that energy that's there from the biden's perspective one of the dangers that i think is that he's over a prepaid card for the moment he has spent a tremendous amount of time thinking about this particular debate and i fear that it will come to be robotic that it will come to be a performance that doesn't come across as connecting with the audience because it is something that it is feels as if it's rehearse just on that i mean period as we

mentioned and have some of the topics would have been known about in advance and then in the last minute the tax issue has come up there's a tax issue a change the game a totally. i think that it gets filtered through the notion of the economy that if i strongly believe that if i have done all trump i want this conversation to be about the economy and that you'll go back to the 2016 playbook where he was the economic populist that talked about how trade deals that decimated the economies in what is identified as the fly over part of the country middle america and how clinton and the various clinton knights were unprepared to tend to the needs of folks who spent most of their lives in the manufacturing industry i think that same line of argument could be used in order to speak to some of the dangers of a biden administration but i also think that that is an argument that can be used to help address some of the concerns that people have about the lack of tax

payments that he has that when biden wants to talk about taxation i think that he should quickly pivot to the conversation around trade unemployment and jobs and just briefly and how much do these debates generally change people's minds in effect how they vote. they really do and that one of the interesting things about this year's election is that there are some of the data indicates that there are over a 1000000 people who have already voted that this time 4 years ago we were at about 10000 people so there is an increasing number of people who are already registering their their votes i think that it speaks to the the critical nature of this moment that this may be the last time that these candidates have the opportunity to speak to a collection of people who are undecided but also to speak to a collection of people who can be encouraged to turn out to vote at this particular moment then unfortunately we have

a large number of people who choose not to vote in the united states and ultimately i do think that these debates and how media like yourselves and others portray what goes on in the debates will inform both who people choose and whether they choose to participate lou thank you very much indeed for your analysis thank you thank you and you can watch the debate right here on our own from one g.m.t. on wednesday. lots more still to come this hour including they're the lucky ones that asylum seekers whose camp was burnt down finally make it to the european mainland. angry protests at the brutal death of yet another young woman in india. and in sports the grand slam the 1st time ever making an impact at the french open.
