WHAT'S BETTER FOR AMERICA - LIBERAL OR CONSERVATIVE IDEAS?
We now know officially who the presidential candidates are, but do THEY know "What's better for America, liberal or conservative ideas?"
Colorado Prager Fans (CPF) present a debate between nationally syndicated radio talk show host and bestselling author Dennis Prager and nationally syndicated newspaper columnist and bestselling author David Sirota. Titled "What's Better for America - Liberal or Conservative Ideas," the program will take place on Monday, September 22, 7 - 9 pm at South High School, 1700 E. Louisiana Ave. in southeast Denver.
The progressive Sirota and conservative Prager and will face off in a timely discussion about the country's most pressing issues, including the economy, foreign policy, freedom of speech and American's reputation in the world.
"The debate format is designed to showcase a respectful dialogue between two popular and divergent political thinkers," says Chuck Grifasi, president of Colorado Prager Fans.
