Probably not as much as flipping burgers in DC

Not here as much, but I read when I swing by and like to help from the background.

Why hasn't anyone noticed that the definition of message boards is op/ed?

Why bother to write in that one forum instead of the others? That's a serious question, btw.

OP/ED has one twist to it forums don't. You make one statement and walk away. You cannot reply to your own OP/ED.

Why do you want only leftists to write?

I perceive a world much more complex than this simple game of Cowboys and Indians where one is either/or and think this binary sort of thinking represents the dumbing down of America rather than an exploration into politics.

Why not simply elicit op eds written intelligently, instead? By only eliciting certain views you are giving the impression of partisanship, even if you are attempting to balance out the content.

Because we do not have one op-ed contributor that is left leaning. It's needed.

Nor from many other political points of view since only two people have contributed op-eds at all and one of them accounts for the vast majority of them.

Define 'Liberal' and 'left leaning'; they aren't the same thing re the U.S., and the Democratic Party isn't a liberal Party, hasn't been since the 1980's. It's the Party of corporate off-shoring, Pay Day loansharking lobbyists, openly represents racists, endorses racial violence and hate crimes, arms ME lunatics with nukes, etc., etc. It's not an American Party, it's merely another Internationalist Nazi Party, so yes, the terms need to be clarified re what you're looking for. A Thom Hartmann, or a Patrick Moynihan? ...

Can we nominate?

Good start. You should flesh that out and audition it.

USMB honoraria checks are YUUUUGE.

Fair points, though I might suggest maybe you're overthinking it.

I'd say C_K is, like all of us using the written word, constrained to those binary/trinary label concepts that can never sufficiently summarize entire philosophies that can and do fill a book. Even between the thread title and this post there's an unresolved conflation between "liberal" and "leftist". That's a worthy distinction but for the purpose of this RFP, such distinction is probably splitting hairs.

Perhaps the idea is not to take the call literally, and is simply worded that way as an appeal to diversify their current resources.

Yes. Astro-turfing Wing nuts, Party shills, and ideological cranks almost totally dominate message boards as it is; independents, moderates, and paleo-liberals/conservatives are sparse. Maybe they are just not as much 'fun' or whatever, but that is where most of the 'diversity' is lacking in real terms.
