CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Some children are gifted with musical talent and can play intricate, complicated compositions on their chosen instrument (many but not all will chose to pursue a life whereby their can utilize their talents to bring joy to themselves and others.
This is known thing, accepted and generally regarded as “normal”; why though, is it different if the gift or talent is geared toward the political?
Some people are just “natural politicians”.

Yeah, that’s fair. It makes me wonder how many people are ambitious about politics knowing they are going to be criticized and hated by many.

I have no idea how old you actually are, but I would say at least 40 given your "8 years[or so] in middle management". My approximate age is given under my avatar.
Didn't have a phone to chat with other kids.
I've never had a "breaks down frequently" problem with any of my 10+ year old cars. It pays to start with quality. (Now my Dad, he had some problem cars, though none were as bad as the lawnmower that required about 1 hour of repairs for every 5 hours of mowing.
where is this going?
Oh, right that's what this thread is about.
I'm sure that will work well...

Okay, I'll buy that. Listening to young people, sounds like a good idea....
So tell them what their concerns are, and how they're not important enough to deal with right now. Got it.
Um, what happened to the listening to young people thing?
-- A2SG, young people are, of course, notoriously famous for wanting older people to share their experiences as they tell them to just keep on waiting, we'll address your concerns just after we give rich people some more tax cuts....

Who did you think David Hogg was going to rely on for the information he’s going to disseminate to the youth masses?
Maybe the 18-25 demographic would like to hear this wisdom from someone closer to their own age, instead of listening to some Boomer/older GenXer prattle on?

I'm curious, is your objection that we Democrats want to choose whoever we want, and if you're not a Democrat, stay out of it? If so, I understand, it's none of my business. Appoint 25 years old or even younger and let them win election.
Unfortunately, for individuals like myself who do not support either Republicans or Democrats, we must view current politics with disappointment.
