As part of my Random Ideas Series, I came up with this one while in the shower and listening to CNN..

I am in the process of building a forum, specifically built for debating/discussion on political matters, in and out of SL. Everyone would be welcome; conservatives, moderates, liberals, fasiscts, communists, libertarians, and so on. The place would be wide-open and welcome to all. It would also have resources for the political-minded individual, as well as a possible museum to showcase political demonstrations/expressions within SL.

All I need is a site, and I'm all set.

Anyone interested?

I am! The Bhodi Tree Gallery has actually been trying to build a collection of political art from SL. I would be happy to find a way to combine that effort with what you are doing?

Preferrably some place with high traffic.

I've decided on a site in Tan, as it is a high-traffic Sim. Hopefully people will be interested by it and stop and chat :)

How about someone hosting a debate event - on a regular basis?

Please do not host events in Tan

Every now and then someone hosts an event in Tan, and enough people wind up going that it becomes impossible to fly over Tan because the simulator gets full.
