Wish there was a politics section

...

I am just saying that although 'Breaking News' covers political events I think a Political Though section would allow for debate over different schools of thought in politics that are very relveant to the band's themes and peoples' needs. Some important debates might include: American Left Vs. American Right; Marx Vs. Adam Smith; IR Realism Vs. IR Liberalism or whatever else; etc...

Why not?

Most of that sounds like what's going on in BN right now, the kids need to play nice though, especially me......

I agree. It's purpose would be to educate and empower the vote OF TDN members. We're only three months away from an election in the US.

Breaking news and s/p are already a place for hippies to jerk one another off. I don't think we need another section devoted to conspiracy theories and anti-Israel sentiments.

Probably not.

I think your titles need some work.
