2. radio
My nephew advertised DU on his Texas A&M radio station for me. Not sure that did anything since A&M should prolly be renamed Bush-U or Pat Robertson Poly-Tech.

4. I'm one of the newbies

I regularly post on an open forum where I go head to head with conservatives. After a while, I needed a respite from their mostly inane arguments. (There are a few good people, honestly.) A couple of allies there told me about this place, and here I am. :hi:

9. Welcome to the DU sanctuary.
I'm relatively new here, too, but I've been telling all my friends about it.

BTW, I get riled enough here. I can't imagine going to more confrontational forums. Good for you.

11. You should try it
Thanks for the welcome.

You should try debating with GOPers sometime. I actually learn quite a bit. Also, there are quite a few moderates and undecideds who are looking on. I'd hate for them to see only the republican point of view.

Don't get me wrong, I think I found my home away from home here.

7. Welcome Newbies!
I've also told people about this site - but don't know if any have signed up.

It's my favorite board on the Net!

8. Maybe my advertising "Democraticunderground.com" bumper sticker
on my car is doing it. But I am sure half of those new registrars are Bush buttkissing disruptors.

but now i finally felt semi-smart enough to start posting. I'm 23 and i have spent about a year and a half learning the issues and getting involved in the political process.
