    Good luck trying to break the mold when you only have 24 hours in a day and more than 1 interview a day, plus other responsibilities.
    You got solutions? Because I’m all ears.

      Limit the question(s) and/or only one specific channel that is publicly accessible to all citizens OTA would be a start - PBS maybe. Allow for repeat viewings throughout the week so everyone has a chance to catch it. The major news networks will pick up what they want anyway for sound bytes regardless of multiple or a singular interview.

      Repeat at intervals as needed with different questions from a left, right, and moderate perspective. Have an independent panel choose the questions for the interviewer to ask from a pool of questions that are known to be big/hot topics the public cares about.

      There’s no need for a circuit. Let the president give their answers officially there and run the country/campaign where they need to.
