Should The Political Discussion Board Remain?

I had a thought regarding the moderation side of things. The board is dominated by two very different political ideologies...the left and the right. Very few posters fit in the middle (and even then the middle is subjective depending on who you ask and from what country). I figure it might be a good idea to take 2 mods (either currently existing or new) from both sides that are capable of being objective despite the subjective nature of the discussions. This will ensure more balance and less accusations of one side having greater mod influence.

Of course if you can get a couple of good centrists to take on the job, all the better.

I am a centrist here, but probably fall to the left-wing equivalent side of the political divide in the USA.

However... From a moderation standpoint, you don't generally care about the points being presented, you care about the delivery and the individual behavior of an individual, so it makes very little difference if a moderator is left or right wing.

Plus before we moderate anyone, anywhere on this forum we discuss it first so as to sidestep the bias issue entirely.

What's the difference between the 3? Is the left nationalist ideals and the right more Liberal that promotes diversity? So the centrist is a combination of the two?
