Lots of ABBA. No dancing. The spastic arrhythmia of white dancing is embarassing. OK, maybe the “robot”. That form of line dancing commonly known as the “goosestep”. Coors. ---

Please post a thesis, (_e.g._, mission statement or political platform of the party), so that folks can actually debate an issue.

> [@Captain\_Amazing](#): > > Have you thought about changing the name? The White Party has various connotations you might not intend. The current definition of the White Party is of a bi-sexual and homosexual nature. They also raise awareness for HIV/AIDS. This White Party recognizes gays as equals. Just another American that is being oppressed like many features of my Party. Thank You but I have made my mind up to call it the White Party.:dubious;) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/michael-a-white-nd-the-white-party/586930.md?page=2)
