hey!
Hi. I'm Tia. I'm fourteen years old and my parents are active here. I'm interested in politics and my parents said I could try this out. I hope to learn from everybodys opinion and we debate politics in my social studies class. I hope to learn more to put up a better fight in that class.

Hi Tia. I'm really glad your parents let you join this group to debate things. I think they are very wise because this website is a great opportunity to learn new ideas and learn to debate with others.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

Yes, welcome. And also, hello. I am new also, but I apologize, I wanted to jump right into discussion before introduction. I guess that says a lot for the forum. I'm a liberal (if you haven't noticed already) from Columbus, Ohio. And I've been looking for a good political forum with somewhat equal sides. Usually the ones I find have either bias or are dead and people haven't posted in months. This one looked quite interesting and look foward to being able to get into some discussions.

Welcome to the forums tia and Katczinsky!

First off I would like to thank your parents for allowing you to join our community. To join an online community and get involved in debates, will definitely be a benefit to you in any debate you come across in person. I used to fall apart when I had a debate with someone in person because I didn't know what to expect from the other side of the story. Now that you can hear both sides of the story, whether it's strong supported evidence, or conspiracy theories, you will be prepared when something like that is mentioned in a debate. I am very happy that a person of such a young age is prepared to open up your mind and absorb what's truly going on in the world today. Be careful of the media!

I created these forums last year soon after the elections. Debates at school would get so out of hand, that I decided to make a site where we can all debate online instead of in person. Feel free to invite anyone from class if debates do get out of hand!

Great to have the both of you here!

Welcome Tia, I myself am not a liberal but I am interested in what liberals have to say on particular issues.
Godbless, Tadpole.

“I am a Republican. I\'m loyal to the party of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. And I believe that my party, in some ways, has strayed from those principles, particularly on the issue of fiscal discipline.”

-John McCain

"Senator, when you took your oath of office, you placed your hand on the Bible and swore to uphold the Constitution.
You did not place your hand on the Constitution and swear to uphold the Bible."
