Was thinking about a name for a party that would be appealing to a large segment of the population, I know President Trump was talking Patriot party by IMO it sounds like a minority party. So thinking Freedom party is cool and appealing and then googled it and lo and behold there is one set up with a darn good platform just waiting for President Trump to revive it and make it the gold standard.

Time to end the Republican/Democrat charade.

You seem to be on a political suicide mission.

Freedom Party has a nice ring to it. Never heard of 'em. Good luck herding the cats.

Unless President Trump endorses it, it’s not going anywhere.

The biggest problem is the fact that politicians go to DC once they are elected, and are then put under a lot of pressure to conform.

They are basically succumbing to the Stockholm Syndrome. This is a phenomenon documented decades ago in which hostages who are subjected to harsh treatment by their captors adopt their captors values and goals as a means of survival. Not everyone put into a hostile environment succumbs. But I think this is the reason why many people who were elected on solid conservative platforms end up advancing socialism lite instead of standing up for the American values they originally espoused.

If we would keep politicians home, in their districts among those who elected them, we would have a chance to protect them from Stockholm Syndrome. There is no reason they must be physically present in DC.

I went to an organizational meeting for this party last Saturday.

I urge you to go to their site and read their platform for yourself before you get involved. I don’t care for their stand on social issues or the fact that they think Dreamers should become American citizens.

Also there are at least 2 other parties with the word “freedom” in their names...and the other 2 are extremely liberal. This would confuse voters searching for info online.

I was in favor of a third party and got involved in the Reform Party when Pat Buchanan was its presidential candidate also helped try to get the Constitution Party up and running.

Third parties don’t have much luck. The ONLY way this party will be successful is if Trump runs at the top of their ticket.

I will vote for Trump whatever party he aligns with.

Freedom is a means to the end. It is not the end.

America First is still the best name.

Freedom Party implies Libertarian which hasn't fared so well thus far.

It has been my intention to register as a “blue dog Democrat”. I think I can do more for conservatism from inside the Democrat Party than I can from the outside, and I can also advocate policies that cause internal rifts (such as confiscating the fortunes of some of our fav meddling billionaries).

We need a new Party with a catchier name.

Here are a few ideas:

The Outlaw Josey Wales Party.

The Kill Them, Kill Them All Party.

The Kill A Commie For Your Mommy Party.

The Only Good Commie Is A Dead Commie Party.

The Nuke D.C. From Orbit Just To Be Sure Party.

The One Politician For Every D.C. Lamppost Party.

Additional Suggestions welcome.
