14. Agreed, a debate is the best way to reach the American people.

I expect the GOP debates to be full of class warfare, religious extremism, racism, sexism, homophobia and just pure meanness. They have nowhere else to go after having elected a gang of soulless grifters to office and trying to destroy the country. I won't bother to watch them, they will be so filthy and dishonest, I'd need brain bleach.

I expect the Democratic debates to be civil, intelligent and logical and in support of Americans. Not what we see here that seems to be classifed as debate, it's just mindlessly repeating whatever the feces du jour from the CT or RW media tosses. And the CT is RW but it's dressed differently.

Those who are swallowing that swill are not Democrats anymore, anyway, so it's no use trying to reason with them. We've always had a lot of concern trolling at DU and it's not going away. Sometimes they are banned and then of course they'll come back in a new reincarnation but you'll know them by their style of writing and what they post on.

They will never have a good thing to say about the Democratic Party or any of its likely candidates, much less the elected ones who they will swoop to kill off. The political process is so tainted in this country by big money, it's no wonder we see so much of this online. The RW ownes the air waves and television, and where else would people get their information from, other than fakes.
