I admit I've only just recently become interested in politics. 9-11 made me open my eyes. I'm upset that it took me so long, but I've spent the last bundle of years more interested in philosophy, history and religion.
I post articles like these and questions like my gun control question because I feel that I get a better understanding of how average Americans feel about these issues if I can follow a debate between them. I do read both or all sides of the issue, but I tend to post about the one I think will get a good debate going.

I feel that the opinions of the American public should be more important than they seem to be these days. It's why I like the debates here. For the most part what is said here doesn't change my view. But I have often ended up looking in new places for information because of something that someone has said. And that has given me far more to think about than I ever thought possible.
