Watch video of a forum discussing a new nominating process for 2012 presidential election.
Americans Elect is providing voters the opportunity to directly nominate a presidential candidate outside the two-party system for the 2012 presidential election. Through AmericansElect.org, every registered voter can sign up to become a delegate and participate. This election, voters can pick a president, not a party.
The panel includes Americans Elect Chief Operating Officer Elliot Ackerman; Shayne Chair Professor of Public Policy and Social Science Larry Bartels; Co-Director of the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions Josh Clinton; Associate Director of the Latin American Public Opinion Project Liz Zechmeister; and Chair of the Vanderbilt Department of Political Science John Geer.
The discussion was moderated by John Seigenthaler, chairman emeritus of The Tennessean and founder of The First Amendment Center.
