- The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) was established in 1987 by the Democratic and Republican parties to establish the way that presidential election debates are run between candidates for President of the United States who garner at least 15 percent support across five national polls. The Commission is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) entity as defined by Federal US tax laws, whose debates are sponsored by private contributions from foundations and corporations. The Commission sponsors and produces debates for the United States presidential and vice presidential candidates and undertakes research and educational activities relating to the debates. The organization, which is a nonprofit, bi-partisan corporation, has sponsored each of the presidential debates held since 1988. The Commission has moderated the 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004 and 2008 debates. Prior to this, the League of Women Voters moderated the 1976, 1980, 1984 debates. The Commission is headed by Frank Fahrenkopf, a former head of the Republican National Committee, and Paul Kirk, a former head of the Democratic National Committee. Washington University in St. Louis has been selected by the Commission to host more Presidential and Vice Presidential Debates than any institution in history.
