Hi from a new Populist Reform Group host.

You may or may not have noticed that the roster of Populist Reform Group hosts has expanded. Please do not hesitate to pm me if you see and/or are being bothered by posts inappropriate for this group.

It's a free country, but my personal recommendation is that you do not engage those making these posts. For one thing, good rarely, if ever, comes of it. For another, it further deflects from the topic of the thread. However, one reminder that the person is posting in a group may be appropriate: Wandering into a group accidentally via the Latest or Greatest page is always a possibility.

Happy posting.

I do not expect to have the same kind of voice as a host as I do as a poster, though.


With great power comes great responsibility.

Not that a group host has great power, but a poster has none at all, except whatever power, if any, her words may carry.

But it's such a great group and not such strict rules as a candidate, we probably only need watch for the third way brigade
