Here’s my read on DU. A site called Democratic Underground that has rules that to be here you must support the Democratic candidate is kind of likely to support a Democratic Party member

We, by and are large, are not progressive underground. Most here are not self avoid socialist. Because most here are even more educated that me and know what socialism really is.

If you want a home with lots of Social Democrats this is it. It you are looking for a place for Democratic Socialist you will have some friends but not the majority.

But as long as you promise to support the Democratic Party nominee and are not insulting it is a great site.

I love it. But although I am called a flaming liberal by my friends I’m seen to be a moderate here!



If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
Question is, are you going to vote for Biden in November? Hoyt Apr 2020 #1
