Patch Readers' Questions Could be Asked During Next Presidential Debate
If you have a question for Obama and Romney, submit it in comments and it could be asked during televised Oct. 16 Town Hall Presidential Debate.
If last Wednesday’s presidential debate left you with more questions than answers, here’s your chance for the presidential candidates to address the issues that most matter to you.
The next presidential debate will be a town hall meeting format at Hofstra University in Long Island, where voters will ask President Obama and Mitt Romney about domestic and foreign policy.
Patch is asking you, our readers, to participate by submitting questions for the candidates.
All you have to do is post your question in the comments section below and we’ll send it to the Commission on Presidential Debates. The Commission is partnering with Patch's parent company Aol, along with Google and Yahoo, to take questions from web users across the country.
Don’t wait until Nov. 6 to have a say in this year’s election. Share your thoughts in the comments!

I would like to know what each party plans to do to help our poor people, our mentally ill people, our people on medicaid and those poor that will be told to buy healh insurance under Obama care when they have no money to do so. Our welfare system needs to be revamped. Daycares could be run by welfare recipients so people with chidren on welfare could work in their communities in soup kitchens, food pantries, cleaning streets, etc. Why not set up a work program in exchange for a welfare check. Poor need the opportunity to learn skills to get better jobs, how do you plan to help them? What would be wrong with work study programs and apprenticeships starting in high school for those kids that don't want to or cannot afford to go to college? I would really like this addressed, the poor are never spoken of but they are out there in America. They really need our help. Thank you, Joan Hanna from Manitowoc, WI
