I do love America though and just tried to help.

Well I'm going to go ahead.  I'm no innocent, but I do try to be as civil as possible.  I believe that's very important because people don't want to be convinced to change their mind by an ass.  I also try not to gloat.  Gloating or saying it's about time or whatever discourages people from saying, "I was wrong".  Admit you were wrong every once in a while.  Because you know you have been.  If someone admits they were wrong, in the future don't reflect back on that and say, 'You thought you were right then."  If there is an issue that "your side" thinks one way, and you think the other don't be afraid to say it.  If we start not taking sides automatically then maybe those sides will dissolve some.  This is all sort of board oriented because this is pretty much the only place I talk or think politics.  In the real world i nod a lot.
