Foreign Policy, Presidential Debate 2012, the Commission on Presidential Debates chose moderator Bob Schieffer and confirms topics for third debate at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida on October 22.
Here are the topics for the October 22 debate, not necessarily to be brought up in this order:

According to the CPD, the format for the debate will be “divided into six-time segments of approximately 15 minutes each on topics to be selected by the moderator. The moderator will open each segment with a question, after which each candidate will have two minutes to respond. The moderator will use the balance of the time in the segment for a discussion of the topic.”

I hope the moderator performs his correct duties.
The topics are right on subject matter.
I researched this so I could have more information on what exactly is to be discussed.
Will Obama still cover up his foreign policy, terrorist attack in Libya?
Bob Schieffer’s debate nightmare is running out of questions
“You know, I had this dream once, where it was before the 2008 debate, Barack Obama and John McCain. And in my dream, I said, ‘Well, gentleman, that’s all the questions I have.’ And I looked down and I had another half-hour to go!”
Schieffer, 75, added with a laugh about the final debate of the election season, “So I guess that’s my worst nightmare. But don’t worry, I have plenty [of questions].”

Schieffer stayed out of the fray and let them speak. I liked that he didn’t pull a Crowley!
