Fine line. We want "enough" charisma, but we don't want demogoguery.

I would have been fine with both of them having proxies for the debate and sitting in, with the proviso that they could chime in if their proxy said something they don't approve.

Nah, I'm way too ideologically consistent to be a politician lol. Plus my hypoactive ADHD and social anxiety combo doesn't lend itself well to public office 😄
