The Compassion Forum is a nonpartisan forum sponsored by Faith in Public Life that has invited Hillary Rodham Clinton, Barack Obama, and John McCain to discuss faith, religious views, and ideological issues. Clinton and Obama are scheduled to attend. McCain has not yet confirmed. Unlike a debate, each candidate will have a separate discussion with the moderators. The Compassion Forum takes place a little over a week before the Pennsylvania Primary which is April 22, 2008.
