28. Personally, I think a top ten question quiz should be asked of all DUers.
Seriously.

What is WRONG with figuring common interests/causes?

What's wrong with that?

10. I think I get it from your answer.

Just curious. I proposed making 24/7 child care available for the working class that work evenings and weekends and holidays and vacations and got slaughtered for it. I really thought that was a good idea considering they throw money at anything that has a large bank account. Why not throw some the other way?

6. Don't lie, steal, or cheat.
....and expect the same from others.

THAT'S 'core values'. Pretty simple.

Peace,

12. Casual mission statement-
We personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, um, some people out there in our nation don’t have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq and everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uh, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future.

14. I understand the intent of your question but might it not have more focus if you asked with what
parts of the 2008 Democratic Party Platform does a DUer disagree?

For example, one passage I object to is "reinstating the assault weapons ban" in the following section.
Firearms
We recognize that the right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms. We believe that the right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation, but we know that what works in Chicago may not work in Cheyenne. We can work together to enact and enforce commonsense laws and improvements – like closing the gun show loophole, improving our background check system, and reinstating the assault weapons ban, so that guns do not fall into the hands of terrorists or criminals. Acting responsibly and with respect for differing views on this issue, we can both protect the constitutional right to bear arms and keep our communities and our children safe.

I don't mean to hijack your thread so please disregard this post if it departs from your intended discussion.

16. I appreciate any insight. I have been walking on egg shells
and I just am trying to get a common understanding of what people here support.

20. Just stay cool,until you get the gist of the place.
Until you do,be careful with the POST MESSAGE key. There is a lot of disagreement on here,and a lot of it heated. Go to the lounge now and then to relax. Or one of the other forums like entertainment,science,sciend-fiction etc.

21. I've read very carefully our Party platform and it supposedly states what we Dems support. I've
discovered however that often DUers disagree on some part of the platform as do I in the passage I cited.

I've read posts from several DUers who object to the passage "we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms" from the section I quoted in #14.

For them, they would ban some classes of firearms, e.g. handguns, semiautomatic firearms.

I expect there are other parts of our Party platform on which DUers are divided particularly if the issue is divisive and polarizing.

I look forward to reading posts to your thread. :hi:

19. Some of us believe we are Obama advisers and financial experts
The rest of us ridicule morAns or either put ducks in bondage OR condemn bondagers of ducks. We also believe Palin shall fight Limbaugh to the death for leadership of the republican party and that Lou Dobbs cannot trick us into believing he no longer has wooden teeth and doesn't color his hair gray/white/washed out brown/whatever.

Which is also a "basic common core fundamental belief" of theirs too.

Coincidentally.
