How would the administrator suggest that members discuss the candidates
if they can't disagree on this to some degree?

Factual, non-demeaning (whatever that means) negative comments are
discouraged, not prohibited. But, IMO the whole HOF process is best
served by emphasizing the worthiness of one's favorites.

FREEvpFREE, the free speech adjunct of vpFREE, is an appropriate
place to post any negative comments on HOF nominees.

Just a little difficult to separate I guess. Sometimes, unfortunately,
facts ("Factual") ARE demeaning and negative. We aren't discussing a
strategy, but we are discussing "people." Just as opinions are
presented about any candidate from sports to politics, there will plenty
of commentary, and not always positive. Just my opinion.

I applaud you Tom! I think we would all be much better off if our
politicians adopted a similar guideline. Imagine what an election
would be like if the candidates has to actually present ideas instead
of just bashing their opposition at every chance. I'm a dreamer,
right?
