Notice: Although I have switched parties to the Federalists, my platform remains unchanged because I hold true to my values and the betterment of the Southern citizenry over party.
by endorsing the federalist candidate for president you pretty clearly demonstrate a shift in your values
Endorsing someone who is clearly more active and has done a wonderful job as President does not demonstrate a shift in values. It is supporting the best candidate out of the two who can get the job done.
This is not a good way to get people to want to join your party, or even stay in. And I hope both you and Labor leadership realize what you are clearly doing wrong.
Obvious partisan hackery is obvious.
