Populares Convention, June 2011

[Mechaman]

Heh, here we go.

Our leadership positions are Chair, Vice Chair, Whip, Chief Director, and Secretary.
I would be willing to serve for a time in whichever role. However, if we want to just be an unhierarchical co-operative I'm good with that too. 

Yeah, that latter option sounds much preferable.
Anyway, for what it's worth I'm not seeking any position.  God knows I'm divisive enough as it is, I don't want to cause any bad morale around here by being in a position of party authority.

I see no reason to disband the party, I don't think that simply giving up and throwing in the towel is the correct idea.  We're still getting new members, we still are distinct from the other parties, while we might be in a rough patch right now that's hardly a reason for doing something as radical as disbanding the party.

^^^^
I've been thinking about this for the past few days and I have to say that Wormy is right.  Sure, I have been disillusioned by what has happened with this party as of late but it is a bit radical to just give up.
Just one last thought to leave everybody with:
Populares: n. pl.   1.   The people or the people's party, in ancient Rome, as opposed to the optimates.
Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, published 1913 by C. & G. Merriam Co.

Let's try living up to this definition more in the future.
