They have heard that there are only Republicans here, and it is nice to let them know there is another option; I do see others who are trying to "get something going" because they see the word Democrat. My feeling is, if a person wants to debate issues, that is what the Political forum is for. I have no desire to debate political issues with anyone, so I don't belong to Politcal.

In retrospect, I probably should have posted this under "Clubs" since it is a notice about a club meeting. I will ask the administrator to move this thread to "Clubs".
Taj44: I appreciated you posting the announcement in this forum. As a soon to be resident and a relative newbie to TOTV, I probably would not have even seen it in the "clubs" forum because I infrequently read those threads.

As for those folks intending to make this thread a political discussion, I would suggest for folks to not take the bait and avoid the political commentary. For those wishing to have political discussions, this is obviously not the right venue, but the proper venue does exist--just not here.
