• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

    Our Societal Priorities

    You must forgive my poll's vagueness. It is a question designed to cause people to think about how they view social responsibility. I should have been more specific. I should have added that choosing one does not preclude the other, rather it would be more important than the other in that...

    Hello

    Greetings to all. Though I've already posted, I thought I'd officially introduce myself. I am hopelessly addicted to information. I love debate and I love learning. My politics are slightly right of center. I like to think that I practice "common sense" politics where each issue is...

Filming special forces hitting the beach during an important clandestine operation and releasing it...

    Liberal Bias on College Campuses?

    While I agree that the "who is smarter" argument is a waste of time, I also feel that there is a sizeable amount of truth to the idea that the Academy, as a viable subculture, leans decidedly to the left.

    Illegal Immigrates rights?

    This is a subject that challenges even the most thoughtful individuals. I believe the crux of any feasable solution resides in the term "illeagal" immigrants. This qualifier suggests that there is a "legal" variety of immigrant to be considered as well. The established lawful process by which...

    Real Torture.

    Thank you for the welcome. It is refreshing to see a young man as interested in politics as yourself, regardless of alignment. You are rare among your peers. However, to compete with the idealism and absolutism of such a young mind is very difficult. The world is not so simple, I assure you...

    Real Torture.

    Greetings, This is my first post. Before I post, though, I'd like to introduce myself and express my excitement at finding a forum with such a vibrant membership. I look forward to learning something. Regarding the current topic, it seems that the points of view proffered are not merely...
