DU3 has amazing transparency compared to DU2.
As an example, we now can see why a member's posting privileges were revoked, and we now have access to the post(s) involved.
As far as Spooked911 is concerned, he did not simply state that Ron Paul should get the gop nomination, he actually said that he thinks that it would be a good thing if Ron Paul were elected:
there are a couple of reasons I think Ron Paul being elected would be a good thing
1) he is a strident anti-military empire, anti-war voice
2) he is so different, he would totally shake up Washington politics-- which is a good thing
I understand that he is very backwards on most issues, but I still think he is an important voice on foreign policy and civil liberties-- two issues I care a lot about.

DU does have some Terms of Service rules, and, a major one is that we support Democratic candidates.
Anyone who would think that it would be preferable for Ron Paul to win the next presidential election has taken a wrong turn on the internet, imo.
