I would not be comfortable except with some clear disclaimers. I brought
up the UBI for example which is promoted heavily by BLH. along with other
very off platform views. But we can't expect non-LP groups to be perfectly
LP either.
I like the idea in general and building coalitions and loyalty is
important.
I actually would like the caucuses to be all included - again with
disclaimers and some minimal requirements - is just a FB group a caucus?
Etc but that gets sticky. But I would hate to exclude great caucuses like
Outright - so how can this be done fairly? I enter to think we have a list
at the bottom labeled party cucucuses - require that they explicitly
identify as being LP caucuses, have some minimal organization and ALL that
request to be listed, be listed.
