The other aspect of FR that is such a strong tool in breaking the MSM dominance of news and agenda control is that no longer must one be a subscriber to Lexis/Nexus to find news from yesterday to 100 years ago.

...If we returning Vietnam Vets had had Freerepublic.com to share the truth about the Vietnam War with America in our combating the even back then Anti-U.S. Media lies of CBS TV's WALTER CRONKITE, DAN RATHER & DON HEWITT:
-A once Free South Vietnam would still be Free today.
-3 million poor S.E. Asian souls would still be alive today.
-100,000's of South Vietnamese would not have been tortured for years in Communist Vietnam Prison Camps after the Fall of Saigon.
(I know, for I have personally had my fingers placed in these Freedom Loving heroes' deep knife wound scars in Little Saigon)

The FR admins need to design a better archive search service. It also needs to be easier to go through one's own archives. When somebody makes 10,000 - 20,000+ comments a year, it cecomes cumpersone clicking through pages of 50 at a time, especially when a summary of the comment is no longer available (it used to be though).
