Politics has been one my main interests since I was pretty young and I have been a little active in a political party called the Greens. I think it is important to take part in political discussions so one are somewhat a part of the democracy, as voting every second or fourth year, in my opinion, is not enough.
A website that lets you take part in discussing politics is Actual Politics. This is a mainly American website where registered users write political articles from their point of view. The website itself is neither liberal nor conservative, but let all voices be heard and it realize that writers never are subjective.
The way it works is that you register at their site (the registration process is very simple and worked flawlessly) and then you can start publishing articles. The editors has to approve your article before it ends up on the site.
As a reader you can rate the different articles by what kind of slant it has, the quality and if you agree or not with the content of the article. You can easily discuss each article as they are a linked to a forum that Actual Politics is running. In the forum you can connect with other people that are interested in discussing politics.
Actual Politics seems like a great site if you are interested in American politics and you want to read articles from all sides of the political spectrum.
