Sorry that I was late getting over to the forum here today.
It's been a busy day for me.
So, first I wanted to say for EVERYONE, this is the SOP for our forum here:
Statement of Purpose
A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing.
Also please read the 'pinned' Welcome post at the top of our forum, direct link here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/110022
Some of my comments there may be of interest to some folks
----
Note: We do 'not' have the words 'safe haven' in our SOP (thank goodness) - I think those two words make it seem that folks have to be protected from passionate debate. I believe that there 'should be' lively passionate discussions/debates, especially when discussing the pros and cons of the differences between two democrats running for the same seat, etc.
The SOP states "No in-fighting or bashing" in this group - that that doesn't mean that there can not be diverse opinions, debate, constructive criticism, etc.
I would like to see this forum be a place where people feel welcome to come and post/discuss 'everything' about our party, our candidates, and our elected officials - there can be civil debate and constructive criticism while still maintaining a positive environment here
Agree or disagree? I would like to hear everyone's opinions.
Also, if we need to add additional info in the 'Welcome' post, let's talk about it and if there aren't too many objections we can add it
Edited to add: missing question mark.
