Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumI hope I am welcome to the Hillary Clinton group
Hi everyone,
I recently got banned from the Bernie Sanders group. I posted over 20+ positive articles to the group. Due to a slip up (I accidentally posted something in the Bernie group when it was meant for GDP), Autumn has permanently banned me. I pleaded with her to give me a second chance and that I was willing to take a suspension and go on a probationary period, but she was firm in her decision. So, I can never post in the Bernie group again .
I've never posted in the Hillary group before, but I'm willing to be a good trooper and post positive and interesting articles about Hillary Clinton. I usually post in GDP, but I like to get away from it once in away and take a breather. I hope you guys welcome me and I will do my best to help Secretary Clinton get the nomination and win the presidency. Thank you.

(55,147 posts)Our Statement Of Purpose is simple, positivity amongst Hillary supporters.
We also do not believe we need to lie here to help our candidate, she is the best one running right now and her record speaks for itself.
Again welcome.

(11,257 posts)I've just been posting here, especially when I need to lower my blood pressure after seeing some of the nonsense posted elsewhere (the straw man arguments drive me particularly crazy!).
In any event, welcome!

(1,968 posts)I sort of stumbled in over here myself after Mrs. Clinton impressed me in the debates.
So far, I've been very welcome and I'm not the rah-rah sort for any political candidate. I simply think Mrs. Clinton is the best choice for President in 2016.

(2,034 posts)you posted pro-Bernie articles like the dozens I keep seeing making the trending now and greatest threads and you get banned? Wow, that's just. I am freaking speechless. I'm so sorry, the hosts here are excellent and won't do that to you long as you follow the groups rules. Again, I'm so sorry that seriously sucks

ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Calling out another DUer, Autumn and the protected group is piling on. Of course, the target, Autumn, cannot respond here in the protected group.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Jan 6, 2016, 04:04 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: What the hell? LEAVE IT.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I think the alerted post is a bunch of junk, but I just don't like hiding posts if I can avoid it. I would rather the OP self-delete, apologize, etc.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is alert-worthy? I think not. I grow fatigued at having to adjudicate clear abuses of the alert system by folks who are apparently fishing around for a sympathetic jury draw so they can exact revenge on someone else for some slight, real or perceived.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: "Piling on" ... Seriously? Good luck in your new home, PTBL.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: while I don't like the naming of names, I would let this stand. This DUer is IMO trying for a second chance due to an error. It was mistake that he was banned (not blaming Autumn, she didn't know it was a mistake at the time), but I think the DUers is sincerely asking for a reprieve. Anybody can make a mistake.

(41,991 posts)I made it clear I wasn't being snarky, that I appreciated what he stands for but can't figure out how he can do what he say he will. Once I was attacked I said I thought it was a bad idea to attack me rather than defend Bernie (and I was VERY careful to be respectful). Boom! I was out of there.
I HATE how often that group pushes things onto the front page and then those of us who have irritated them can't ask anything about the posts. I'd say the same about this group or anyone. It's the absolute worst way to get people to your side.
