About DeepDebate
The mission of DeepDebate is to organize a large– but simultaneously high-quality– national conversation around the 2008 US Presidential debates. We are a non-partisan organization which invites all colors of the political spectrum to participate.
While the candidates debate, the new format for online discussion at DeepDebate will allow citizens to dive deeper into the issues. The site is purposefully built so that users come into direct contact with contrasting opinions. Disconnected, partisan conversations reinforce group-think and conformity. In contrast, direct challenges to your beliefs, supported by logic and evidence, can finely tune your ideas and help you understand alternate points of view.
Our goal, among others, is to include as many people as possible in this new type of online discussion, while simultaneously emphasizing quality and content.
American citizens deserve a deeper debate.
