I was away from DU for a while but I am back thank god during this horrible election period especially the republican choice for President. I remember Bush and Gore and how the Supreme Court handed Bush the Election. Then we got our President Barack Obama cool and calm for 8 years, and he didn't have a silver spoon in his mouth either.
But thank you DU I still see posters names that I remember from the Bush era. DU is my refuge too so nice to be with like minded people. You guys just take the edge off and say don't panic.
Again, this election we will be making history nothing wrong voting for a qualified woman who knows her stuff.
I come here before I turn the TV on, you guys are so much better for the truth and my sanity!!!!
