What would be your criteria for including candidates to the GOP debates?

One criteria I'd have: If you've run for nomination before and been invited to prior presidential debates, and fail to crack five percent in the average of the most recent polls, you're not eligible. You can't argue that voters haven't gotten to know a candidate well enough. A variation to keep Christie on his toes could also apply to former Keynote speakers.
