Welcome to the General Primary forum of Democratic Underground!!!

At this point the rest of DU has very little to do with the 2016 Presidential Election. Hillary Clinton is the de facto nominee of the Democratic party and, since this is the only forum on DU where this reality is accepted, this has become GDP.

It's really just like any other Liberal site, in that trolls show up once and a while and get kicked out. The rest of the forums don't really serve much purpose except for denial and fantasy.

Hillary is the presumptive Democratic Party nominee. There's no ifs, ands, or buts.

I just wish the delusional outside would leave us alone? This seem to be the only fact based part of this site? Why not just rename it Bernie Underground and move on?

When ad revenue matters more than community standards, and administrative responsibility becomes replaced by fearful appeasement, the community is going to struggle to maintain itself.

This is also DU's de facto GE headquarters until such time as Skinner cleans out the Augean stables.

They must know that there is a good chance this place will never settle down again. Why lose 20% of your clients when you can just give them their own space? I would be happy to contribute $$$ again. In fact I would double down for a place that doesn't rip the Democratic President to shreds.
