    Hi from newbie

    Hi, everybody. I haven't had the time to change avatar, signature, etc. but I'm glad to be here given that I really like to discuss politics (it's a hobby for me). I define myself in the political spectrum as a centrist, thus my username (I lean left in many - not all - domestic issues and lean right in many - not all - international issues so I guess one inclination balances the other and I'm a centrist with mostly moderate views - I'm fully aware that this is a dangerous position as I may just end up pissing off both sides, haha). I'm particularly interested in the COVID-19 situation, in order to share what I've been learning and to learn from others. I intend to be very civil and never engage in personal attacks. Thanks for having me.

    Hi CenterField and welcome!

    It's always good to get new blood, especially from a centrist.

    Thanks. Hopefully I won't disappoint you in this regard, as maybe I'm not the most typical centrist, but rather someone who harbors both leftist and rightist ideas. In any ONE issue I'll probably land decisively on one side of the spectrum. It's not like I'm a centrist for everything. It's just that I feel that my left side cancels out my right side and vice-versa so I end up by default on top of the center mark... LOL.

    Hi there, CENTRIST! I too am a centrist, even tho most Trumproids on here consider me a socialist/communist far out LEFTY, just because I don't like Trump! Disliking Mr. Trump can get you sent immediately to the HOLE, where few return!
