I've had a related idea. I'd like it if political debates allowed the candidates to talk to each other directly more, and I want a timer above each candidate that shows how long they have been talking and an interruption counter. This way, if one politician frequently interrupts or talks more than their fair share it will become obvious to both them and the viewers.
Of course, this will probably never happen for several reasons. And political debates don't often change people's minds, but they are good theater -- actually, something like this would add the the theatrical nature, so maybe there's some slim chance it could happen.
