Yes, I think the debates should be open to anyone who can conceivably win the Presidency

100% yes, the media shouldn't get to anoint the "real" candidates due to a self-fulfilling poll-driven feedback-loop.

I also support IRV and some sort of PR for Congress, although not pure party-list.

It's a horrific electoral system that saddles us with the two crap parties ruining our country today. The sad thing is that they control everything, so it would be very hard to pass any reforms fixing it.
