Wouldn't the "Libertarian" view be that Fox is a private concern, and may invite who they please?
The debates are about getting information to the voters on an important decision: who to nominate for President. Too many of these farces have been conducted, on both sides, including marginal candidates with no chance of winning who only distract from the time and attention to those who have some outside shot, at least.
Were you as incensed at the ABC refusal to include Kucinich? Neither he nor Paul have the foggiest hope of winning their party's nomination. The debates aren't platforms to air all nutty ideas; they are supposed to be between the contenders. Both Kucinich and Paul have had ample debate exposure already - far more than they deserved, based on support.
