For the first time, I just became a Star member! (I needed a few). Couldn't afford many,

but the first three have been passed out, to long-time DU'ers whose posts and opinions have particularly stricken a chord with me over and over again. Thank you, ALL DU'ers for exercising your rights, exchanging ideas, and for caring enough to even participate, in a society with woefully low participation numbers. This year I have donated to 4 candidates now, one twice, and I have now donated to DU. I truly hope, that whichever candidate wins the primary, we CRUSH the Republicans in the general. Now is a moment in history when we could really set some boundaries, stop Republicans in their tracks, maybe even reverse some of the criminality that has creeped firmly into our midst. It could be a wave election. I hope our candidates have coat tails. Rock on! Register people to vote! Engage everyone! I've got just a few hearts left. Can't wait to bestow them upon a few others! Peace.
