Come one, come all! Today, I am not just joining the PUP, I am resurrecting the PUP!

As the current party consists of zombie voters and people who will fall off the rolls soon due to inactivity, and as there is no current leadership, I hereby declare myself Chair of PUP, until such time that re-establishment is complete.

In my capacity as Chair of PUP, I hereby repeal all of the current by-laws, platform(s), symbols, and other propaganda associated with the party. We will create new versions of all this.

-----

It is my belief that PUP failed because it failed to stand for anything aside from "Just another version of Labor". When Labor collapsed in 2017, people wanted something new, and instead all they got was more of the same. PUP then collapsed as people realized the new wasn't any better than the old, and so returned to the old.

Under my leadership, this will change. Because Atlasia simply isn't progressive enough. The Peace and Labor parties are conservative in disguise honestly. No, I'm not talking about Social Issues, the Economy, Foreign Policy, or any of the typical issues one might think about from time to time. I'm talking about a big issue, that would make Atlasia far more progressive. I'm talking about the Issue of....

Texan Independence


No, not Texan Independence because they want it or something like that, but Texan Independence because with Texas, Atlasia is too conservative. Only without Texas can Atlasia truly become progressive. Therefore, we must fight to make Texas leave by force. We seek immediate help from the Federal Government in order to accomplish this. Further, we will work in the elections later this month to elect a PUP-Majority House. Getting a Majority in the Senate will take a couple cycles because we're not defeating NCY, lol, but we will work to make it happen over the course of the April and June Elections, along with electing a PUP President. Once we have the Government, we will push Texas out (if they have not already been pushed out) and pursue a progressive agenda with new rigor and virtue.

----------------

Now, on to Business. I declare the following as our Flag:



The following is our platform:

Quote
1. Texan Independence By Force

Remainder of Platform is TBD

Bylaws and other symbols are TBD

I hereby declare that the officers of the party will consist of:

1. the Chair, who runs the party
2. the Vice Chair, who will run the party in the Chair's Absence and manage party elections
3. the Whip, who will keep the party members in the legislatures and Congress voting in line with party positions
4. the Treasurer, who shall be responsible for managing the party's money and other resources
5. the Secretary, who shall be responsible for keeping the party's wiki page updated, and who shall perform other random administrative duties at the direction of the Chair or Vice Chair.

As mentioned before, I am the Chair, until our re-establishment is complete, complete with a full new platform and by-laws.

I am accepting applications for the other 4 positions. PM me or post below with your qualifications, ideas, etc. if you want one of these positions. Choices may be made as soon as later Today (April 1), so apply quickly. Other Leaders are listed in a later post.

----------------------------

Let's bring back the PUP!!!! TEXAN INDEPENDENCE BY FORCE!!!!!

New members (go join the party on the new register thread right now!!!!) and current members, please sign in.

I will support this movement, with the proviso that Texas is established as a protectorship of Frémont instead of granted independence.

If you join the party, you can present that amendment when we move to consideration of the full platform.

It is my great disappointment to inform you all that this revival was for satirical purposes and was merely an April Fool's Joke. But given that only UlmerFudd and Comrade Funk joined, and given that none of the 9 pre-april-1 members signed in despite me pming them and appointing some to leadership, perhaps no one really wants this revival anyways.

I hereby announce that I will be returning to Labor upon the end of this address. However, I do wish to leave the party in stable hands and end the legal loophole wherein this party has no leadership. Therefore, I designate the following:

Quote
Chair Directive #0002

Upon my resignation as Chair, Mr. Jaydon Brooks shall serve as Chair
As Mr. Comrade Funk has returned to Labor, Mr. Mondale_was_an_inside_job shall serve as Vice Chair.

I wish Mr. Jaydon Brooks good luck in leading this party, on whatever course he may wish to take.

With that, I hereby adjourn the convention and resign as Chair.
