It seems like you're expressing concerns about the fairness and impartiality of presidential debates, particularly in relation to the 2020 election. Here are some points addressed:
* **Non-partisan venues**: There have been instances where non-profit organizations or universities have hosted presidential debates. For example, in 2016, Fordham University hosted a debate between Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders.
* **Pre-questioning**: You're right that the risk of pre-questioning exists when debating on major networks like ABC or CNN. This has happened before, with some questioning the fairness of these events.
* **Moderator bias**: The 2020 presidential debates did receive criticism for perceived biases in moderation. Some argued that certain moderators favored one candidate over the other.
* **Third-party representation**: You're correct that third parties, like the Libertarian Party, have historically been excluded from presidential debates despite meeting ballot qualification requirements.
The process of qualifying for and participating in presidential debates is governed by a set of rules established by the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD). These rules require candidates to appear on the ballot in enough states to reach a certain threshold.
