Jill Stein is suing to get into the presidential debates

According to Wikipedia, this has been tried twice before: once by Ralph Nader in 2000 and once by Gary Johnson in 2012. This is the first time a suit has been pursued on constitutional grounds, however.

Green Jill Stein Is Fighting for Open Debates and Real Democracy

Quote:

...the status quo polices the political discourse via the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), a vehicle constructed by the two major parties to maintain their duopoly. In 2012, Stein and Green vice-presidential candidate Cheri Honkala were arrested for trying to enter a presidential debate sponsored by the CPD. This year, Stein is starting early by joining other third-party contenders who have been excluded from CPD debates as plaintiffs in a historic legal challenge to the commission’s practices. Initiated by the group Level the Playing Field, the lawsuit seeks to open up the 2016 debates to alternative candidates and alternative views.
