Should I become a delegate of the Socialist Party?
The SP-USA sent me a letter inviting me to be a delegate for my region, should I accept? What kinds of rights and responsibilites would this entail? Anyone know? (I'm looking at you Che). I tried to check out their website but I couldn't find anymore info.

Have almost no experiece here - the few times I turned up for union meetings seemed to be one endless catfight and political wrestling match.
If you've got the time and think you can make a difference... look into it, but don't expect anything but grief.

I can be proud of the republican party.
And I am not authoritarian. Maybe a bit patriotic of my country but hey who isn´t...
And what party do you belong to? Does such a party exist? If so does it have more than a hundred members?

Well at least if you belong to the cpusa you are last on the list to be raped by Ann Coulter.
What a horrible thought.

I'm head of my local Antisocialist party. It's great, we never have meetings or even talk to each other.
ACK!

I dunno Immerz, but I'm already a literal card-carrying commie. Maybe delegates get some fancy embossed card.

At least that's something.
If they want more delegates they are going to have to pony up more goodies, like a flag or something  .

It's an egalitarian party, so all members take turns to have sex with the most beautiful women in the party.
The bad side of this is that you have to do all the mingers as well.
It's a socialist obligation!

For some reason, I doubt this incentive will appeal to gay commies.

I've been a delegate. You should do it, it'll be a good experience for you if you can get to Chicago. I'd do it, but because of the state of my state party, my dues haven't been collected (even though I wanted to pay them) and I'm not a member in good standing. Not that it matters since I'm going to be unemployed next week and can't afford to get to Chicago anyway. I doubt Florida will even be represented.
When you're there, be sure to hook up with the Chicago comrades, esp. comrade Barnes. Make sure to get invited back to Cmd. Pelz place for beer and sausages. Remember the Chicago Socialist Party motto: Beer - Brats - Bolshevism!
Maybe Florida's could be a take on that: Beer - Beaches - Bolshevism!
If Dave McReynolds shows up, say hi to him.
