This is a brilliant idea.

My hope is for a similar thing to exist in real-time in future political debates, where live fact-checking spits back at anyone who speaks a mis-truth, nipping B.S. in the bud.

could we shock the candidates when 3/4 fact checkers disagree? Joking (mostly) aside. I like this idea as well. I think it could replace the useless and toxic chat/twitter feed that is put on websites hosting debate streams.

Agree. We can have a bunch of people fact check on the fly. A ministry of some sort. We can call it The Ministry of Truth.
