I guess I should introduce myself properly, since this will be my second home on DU (after CHaS).

I'm a 55 y/o Caucasian male, divorced, live near Orlando, FL. I've been a Democrat my entire life. I've always liked President Obama. I'd call myself a liberal Democrat overall.

The commotion in DU during the Ukraine crisis has REALLY opened my eyes to this place. I'm a pretty open-minded guy, but I have my limits. I have President Obama's back. During the Ukraine crisis and beyond. He's a good man.

My overall philosophy with DU is non-confrontational. I'm not good at it and I don't enjoy it. I think the vast majority of posters here have their minds set in marble and they won't change them. I know, on some issues, I'm this way. Therefore, I will not engage. I see attacking President Obama as counterproductive. He is on OUR side. The people's side. I really believe this.

If I break a rule in this group, it's because of sheer ignorance, not ill will. Just let me know and it won't happen again, promised.

I wish all of you much happiness, GOTV 2014, and go Obama !!!!!!

Go DEMS !!!
