Dear fellow Extropians:

If you think about it a bit more seriously there is a germ of an idea
there. From a more pragmatic perspective it might be more effective to
work from within the structure of an existing major political
organization and modify its direction in order to help advance society
more directly. Logic would indicate that the political organization you
might want to consider changing is that organization which is the least
progressive and least representative of our diverse culture. I think you
can all figure out which party that is.
What do you all think about that one?
