With all respect toward the gentlemen who moderate this forum, and all respect toward our friends in the Great White North, (Don in particular) I feel that there would not be a net gain in 'improvements' in this forum, were DD to become moderator.
I present the following as support for position:
1) Don has-in the past been asked to stay out of internal US politics. Speculative reason; Don is Canadian.
2) Don would be saddled with a pesky objective point-of-view.
3) DD is already moderating one forum--how much of a martyr does he wish to be?
I present the following as a contra-view:
1) Don would be saddled with a pesky objective point-of-view.
In summary--we can always use more moderation. We can always use an objective point-of-view. We can always object to any other point-of-view. DD may not be a Masochist.
(Personal Observation) Citizens of the United States seem to be very sensitive, when it comes to criticism from outside. Perhaps we need to thicken our skin---or be a little more introspective. Go ahead and fire away, I've already been called a bigot, and the title just bounced off.
Best...
