LOOK: Nader didn't steal the 2000 election folks...
The Supreme Court (of Kings and Queens) took it from the people, and gave it to Bush, and we let it happen.

The two party system has given rise to this misrepresentative, bureaucratic political establishment we have now. So leave Nader out of it (I voted Gore by the way), and let's not let the supreme oligarchy strip our rights from us again. K!?!?

Vote for who you want, that's how a democracy works, and if Ralphie Nader gets enough votes to change things around here well then that may be a good thing.

"If you don't vote your heart, well then your heart never wins..." ---Dennis Kucinich on a conference call to all of us House Partiers

2. Locking
Rules to start discussion threads in the General Discussion forum.

1. If you start a thread in the General Discussion forum, you must present your opinion in a manner that is not inflammatory, which respects differences in opinion, and which is likely to lead to respectful discussion rather than flaming. Some examples of things which should generally be avoided are: unnecessarily hot rhetoric, nicknames for prominent Democrats or their supporters, broad-brush statements about groups of people, single-sentence "drive-by" thread topics, etc.

2. The subject line of a discussion thread must accurately reflect the actual content of the message.

3. The subject line of a discussion thread may not include profanity or swear words, even if words or letters are replaced by asterisks, dashes, or abbreviations.

4. The subject line and the entire text of the message which starts the thread may not include excessive capitalization, or excessive punctuation.

5. If you post an article or other published content which is from a conservative source or which expresses a traditionally conservative viewpoint, you must state your opinion about the piece and/or the issues it raises.

6. You may not start a new discussion thread in order to continue a current or recent flame war from another thread. The moderators have the authority to lock threads in order to contain flaming on a particular topic to only one thread at a time.

7. Discussion topics that mention any or all of the Democratic presidential primary candidates are not permitted in the General Discussion forum, and instead must be posted in the General Discussion: 2004 Primary forum.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation,
DU moderator
