The Democratic Socialist Party

[Ezuela]

1. Peace: The Red Front will be committed to preserving peace within the region and among our allies, as well as convincing our adversaries that peace is preferable to war.
2. Equality: The Red Front will be committed to bringing about equality of opportunity for all people, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or economic circumstances.
3. Nationalization: The Red Front will be committed to nationalizing all major industry, which will give control of these institutions to the people.
4. Democracy: The Red Front will be committed to establishing direct democracy, allowing people to vote for president, vice president and senators democratically and without influence from special interests. The Party also supports the right of voters to recall elected officials and referendum.

The Red Front also supports:

1. Establishing a House of Representatives and reforming the Senate: The House would be made up of 20 members, while the Senate would be made up of 10. This is to encourage serious debate on bills. Seven members in a unicameral legislature is not enough to represent the interests of the people.
2. Allowing the President to appoint the Chief Justice and up to five Associate Justices to the High Court.
3. Reforming the election system so that whoever finishes second in a presidential race shall automatically become vice president.
4. Proportional representation.

The communists don't have a monopoly over symbolism.

BTW I MIGHT join, if you change the name to something like Revolutionary Leftist Party to linclude communists and other Leftists, also possibly sharing a HQ with the NLP and being allied to it.

I'm not a supporter of communism, but realizing the importance of forming a strong leftist coalition, I will change the name, but to the Red Front. It's broad enough. Re: forming an alliance with NLP: I don't know how they will feel about it, but I'll bring it up.

Oh! yeah. Well, I can't change the name of the *title* of the thread because for some reason I'm not able to do it. I'll probably have to ask someone who has proper privileges to do it for me. I changed the name of the party in the actual post, though. I'm about to set up base in the NLP.

ill get delv and try to get black rifle to join first, then try to get more leftist recruits.

Sounds good. But I want to stress that this is a coalition we're forming, with democratic socialists, social democrats (if they so choose), communists, and other leftists. I don't want one bloc making complete party policy. Decision-making needs to be democratic. I don't want to have to deal with Trotskyists infiltrating the party.

Social democrats might not be pure leftists, but they're more aligned with the left than they are with the right. I don't agree with them, but they seem committed to the idea of the welfare state, though sadly not to the principle of anti-capitalism...

 

[Asianatic]

Do we have three members?

 

[Ezuela]

Do we have three members?

eh, maybe. I think it's looking okay, though.

 

[Cary]

yes, but I hardly call center-left leftist.

 

[Cary]

Do we have three members?

once del gets on we will.
