INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana Debate Commission is inviting Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama to hold a presidential primary debate in Indiana.

The commission says the debate could take place after the Pennsylvania primary April 22 and before the Indiana primary May 6. Details such as location and exact date have not been determined, but the commission says PBS and CNN would carry the debate nationally.

The debate commission has not yet heard from either campaign. But Clinton's campaign says the New York senator would likely welcome the opportunity to debate Obama.

Indiana Debate Commission affiliates include journalism organizations, the Indiana State Bar Association and the League of Women Voters of Indiana.

I have literally DREAMED of seeing a Presidential debate in South Bend and the University of Notre Dame surely could provide the necessary space/security for such an event. Hope "we" are on the list and that "I" can get a TICKET !
