Overall, it gives us Americans a good feel of the candidate's plan, determining if they will be a good president. They also can give some insight into the personalities and characters of the candidate, rather like a job interview. Debates are important because they are on television in prime time and have more popular appeal than newspapers articles or magazines and so reach a huge percentage of voters .
