My own personal views would be pretty similar to the LP platform, maybe a bit toned down, so it would just be redundant. Gold is fine as their color, red and blue are taken, black is depressing, white makes you look like white nationalists.
Most of this thread is just "how many different ways can we be communist?"
Anyway, here's my attempt at a moderate hero party-
NAME OF PARTY: American Party IDEOLOGY: Centrism, liberalism OFFICIAL COLOR(S): Red, white, and blue American flag theme POLITICAL POSITION- center-right to center-left POLITICAL PROGRAM-
The idea here is that I'll strip away all the issues people fight about and have a party that just represents the core American values, which have been abandoned by Republicans and Democrats. These are-
America is not an ethnic state. Immigration policies should not promote certain ethnicities over others in demographics. This also encompasses a belief in racial equality, not equity. Everyone should be treated the same by the government and society regardless of ethnic background.
Broad support for capitalism. Diverse economic views should be represented, there will be no tax pledges and it is fine to support a robust safety net. However, the party is opposed to significant nationalization and avowed socialists are not welcome.
Near absolute belief in freedom of speech, assembly, press, and religion. This includes church-state separation on the last front.
Support for the rights of the accused as mandated in the constitution at every level of government. It is better to let a guilty person go free than punish an innocent person.
Absolute support for representative democracy (this could include efforts to abolish the EC)
I would consider adding support for gay marriage and Roe v. Wade as well (but not late term abortion or other misc restrictions) since those are things 70-80% of people agree on.
This is basically the Dems but without all the baggage that drags them down (socialists, CRT, woke censorship, sexual misconduct with hunts).
