I think the format was severely flawed and gave a very negative picture of the Republican party as a whole. When you look at the Democratic and Republican CNN/YouTube debates side by side it is very clear that the question selection was skewed. Honestly, I was very disappointed in CNN for this.

CNN like all media I know of is in it for the money. Picking the the questions they want only makes economic sense to me. However, they do have the right to let CNN be run by some random committee? But that would be crazy. Journalists should get off their high horse on this "[common] people-powered" anything. I disagree. CNN like all media I know of is in it for the money.

It is just another example of the media controlling what they think we should hear, or what they want us to hear. While I think it makes sense to filter questions for relevance for debate, I like your idea of having the people vote. This way it actually forces the people to become even more engaged and let the candidates know what we want to hear about. I agree Todd.
