The Bitter Americans was born during the 2008 race for the presidency. Being forced to pick between a terrible, moderate candidate in John McCain and a socialist in Barack Obama, I needed a place to vent. Since then, The Bitter Americans has been striving to become a community for conservatives to discuss and share ideas, as well as a place for people of opposing viewpoints to learn about conservative principles. I encourage people of all backgrounds and differing viewpoints to take part in the conversations.
