There has been an ongoing wrestling match with respect to the name. That is definitely an open issue. As far as the name of the board, that was deliberate. The idea is to challenge and shake the concept of ideology. That particular name is only for this group. If someone can't get beyond that name to get involved in the discussion, it is probably for the best. My original name for the party was Neopopulist, because the present situation is very reminiscent of the situation which led to the first Populist Party. But that is probably tainted because of its connections with the early labor movement.

Your views on illegals are one of the reasons why this board exists. You make good points, but we need working solutions. I personally have a problem with controlling illegals, the ones I have met work hard and deserve a break. But we have our own unskilled that need to be helped. We need a solution to this.

Solving problems with real solutions instead of fake ones is what this effort is all about. Maybe that needs to be explicitly spelled out.
