Welcome to "The Way Forward"

30. Glad to see this post

I don't expect to spend much time on DU over the next four years, as I really don't want to think
about politics - yet I feel happy to see this post (and I will renew my star membership soon to
show my support for those interested in moving forward).

One suggestion I have -- and some may laugh at me for saying this and find it naive -- is to rethink how we discuss and describe our fellow voters, whether Democratic voters, Republican voters, Independents or those of any political party and voters of no political party.

What I am trying to say is this: it's one thing to criticize a politician or a policy, but
it's quite another to criticize, humiliate, bash, and put down people who could vote for you.

Elections have consequences. Be kind to all voters, all the time.
