What do we have in common?
In the last few days, I've started a couple of threads designed to show the perceptions that people have about both liberals and conservatives. I believe politics in the United States has become polarized and angry-- and this is destructive for democracy.
So let's try to change the subject. I'm a liberal. I'm also from a big city on the east coast. You might have suspected it, but I'm also Jewish.
However, I went to college in a small town. I love small towns, they're obviously great places to grow up. I love sports, particularly the pathetic Philadelphia Eagles. I play rugby and love to drink cheap beer. Before I found poker, I was almost always broke as [censored] and my family has had a lot of economic hardship reccently.
I've never shot a gun, but I sort of think it would be cool. Any red-staters out there want to take me hunting sometime?
