@Quora's-member(s) wonder about #Podiums at Presidential Debates ...

|That word| seems important; so I found out a little more about |that word| (below-linked to the 'QUestion OR Answer' that brought |that word| to my attention) and share my findings with you below---maybe I'll add some notes beneath (and/or you might start/continue the discussion in the comments).
The word |Podiums| sits at the peak of the high tower above the proto-word #ped- "Foot," which evolved to today's meaning through ancient words that mean "Foot of a Vase, Projecting Base of a Pedestal, the Architecture of a Raised Platform around an Ancient Arena."
The proto-word *ped---an imaginary pre-word that probably helped form ancient words that mean "Foot, Footstep, Sole"--forms all or part of Biped, Centipede, Expedite, Expedition, Foosball, Fetch, Fetter, Impair, Impede, Impediment, Impeach, Impeccable, Millipede, 
"Octopus, Oedipus, Pajamas, Pawn, Pedal, Pedicure, Pedigree, Pedometer, Pejorative, Peon, Pessimism, Pew, Piedmont, Pilot, Pioneer, Platypus, Podiatry, Polyp, Quadruped, Trapezoid, Vamp (Upper Part of a Shoe or -Boot)."
