COLUMBIA, S.C. — Sen. Jim DeMint and a group of Palmetto State political insiders are organizing a presidential candidate forum for Labor Day weekend, according to Republican sources.

The details of the South Carolina forum and its exact timing during the holiday weekend have not yet been released. But multiple GOP sources said invitations could soon go out to the 2012 GOP contenders, requesting they participate in a forum designed to allow each politician to discuss at length their positions on key issues.
The event is not a debate, and candidates might even be given the questions and topics in advance with the goal of facilitating a more substantive discussion than is typical of multicandidate face-offs. According to one source with knowledge of the forum, the event would be sponsored by an independent organization.

NO NO NO NO

You can not cram for president you either have it or you don't.

Not sure though, even though I think Ron would shine in the spontaneous scenario, it might be beneficial for him and the big W to have some time together with the questions.

Ron does best when it is spontaneous, because he has so much knowledge at his fingertips and it shows. If people can cram, they can look knowledgable when they are know.
