May I ask to be welcomed into this group? [View all]

[NanceGreggs]

I have credentials that can be checked out.

I am a long-time Obama supporter, and a supporter of the Democratic Party. As such, I am all-too-familiar with being criticized for supporting both here on DemocraticUnderground.

I am a Hillary supporter - and again, I understand how supporting a candidate who has demonstrated her many abilities to assume the role of POTUS is not welcome in a place that still calls itself a "Democratic-supporting" site.

I was an Obama supporter back on '08 because I believed he was the most qualified to be POTUS at that time. I do not regret nor retract that support.

I am now an HRC supporter in '16 because I believe she is the most qualified to be POTUS at this time. I do not regret nor retract that support.

I have already suffered the slings-and-arrows of the anti-Obama contingent on DU. I am prepared to do the same in the face of the anti-HRC contingent - which seems to be comprised of the same posters. (Mere coincidence, I'm sure.)

When it comes to the 2016 election, I'm in it to win it. And Hillary can win it.

If I am not acceptable in this group due to my having chosen Obama over Hillary in 2008, I fully understand that.

So I am asking for admittance, rather than assuming I will be welcome here.
