Naso, what part of Ohio do you live in? Do Ohioan men come in different genders or something?

Thankfully, he's in the directly opposite side of the state to myself.  Here in the southwest corner, the men are ALL MAN, and rugged to boot.

I'm sorry to say that having pockmarks from acne scarring doesn't count as "rugged".

Well, given that Ronald Reagan is dead, he'd obviously get all of libertarian vote, but Clinton would win, being able to actually function.

Lol... Just lol on this one

I would propose the Yukon, its a nicer region clearly Tongue

But what is your opinion on Franco-Atlasian relations?

I believe that we need to make peaceful relations with each country including Franco. And if they are not willing to be our allies right off the bat, we need to work together with the people of Franco until we reach that point.

So what, Stormfront is still a racist and xenophobic site. End of story.

"IF NUMBERS measure success, Stormfront certainly resonates with many people's angst over the future. The site boasts more than 103,000 members, according to the independent Big Boards monitoring group. Just two years ago, it had a mere 53,000 members, and only 10,000 in 2002. Kelso gleefully notes that membership is growing at a rate of 500 a week.

Put another way, Amazon.com's Alexa website-traffic rankings show Stormfront at No. 9,108. By comparison, Yahoo is No. 1, CNN is No. 46, Fox News is No. 451, Creative Loafing is No. 52,178 and the Southern Poverty Law Center, a Montgomery, Ala., hate-group monitor with a palpable distaste for Stormfront, is No. 118,380.

Stormfront's thousands of gray, white and blue pages, which can be researched and indexed by not-too-difficult tools, are graphically bland. But not the discussions. While its leaders deny they're propagating hate, the site clearly enables members to voice the most outrageous opinions.

You'll find predictable anti-Semitism ("[H]ow did so many Jews come to dominate media ownership?" wrote a member e-monikered "dukesrevenge"). And racism ("Even with all the welfair [sic], and diversity nonsense, blacks still feel that whites are racist, yet, so very few of them seem to be moving back to Africa," penned "youboob").

You'll also find advice on romance ("Belenus" chastises one comrade: "Interracial dating is simply a euphemism for what people know to be wrong and unnatural"), as well as domestic topics ("TheRebel," a pediatrician Stormfront member, asks: "I am curious as to which ladies here also hold jobs outside of a wife and/or mother. P.S. I did not mean to offend any housewives/mothers.").

Many of the most active topic groups are for international Stormfront activists – Britain leads with 352,405 posts since 2001, followed by the Netherlands (190,620) and "Stormfront Downunder" (122,240). Driving home the worldwide reach of Stormfront, the homepage's feature artwork is a series of rotating banners for each of the "white" nations.

 John SuggGOING MAINSTREAM: Former Reagan official and Stormfront commentator Bob Whitaker predicts "America will break up into political groups, with whites as the most powerful."
The most frequented topic, after the general discussion "Lounge" (549,634 posts), is "Opposing Views," with 393,687 messages, which is moderated by a member dubbed "jack boot." The opposition, however, consists more often of sniping among rival right-wing groups than non-racists bombarding Stormfront. "The Ozman," for example, responded to the faintest whiff of tolerance by proclaiming, "Racial cultures don't mix successfully. Never will. Multiculturalism is a very real thing that only White countries suffer from."

But one visitor did have the temerity to announce, "You're all a bunch of f****ng racists."

"Oh, sure," Stormfront administrator Kelso says. "There are a lot of people who don't agree with us [visiting the website]. Reporters, law enforcement, professors, the Southern Poverty Law Center. But you know what? They're paying attention. They're seeing how many people agree with us. And many of those who visit start saying, 'Yeah, that makes sense.'"

What's clear – and frightening – is that not since the Ku Klux Klan recruited millions in the 1920s has an overtly racist organization reveled in such rapid growth.

"Our success is mostly having the right message at the right time," chuckles Kelso, whose digital persona is "Charles A Lindbergh," the famed aviator who also was a vocal racist and anti-Semite. It's been during Kelso's five years of day-to-day running of Stormfront that the online forum's growth has exploded. A longtime activist with the conspiracy-minded John Birch Society, Kelso is a chatty, often witty fellow who interrupted a busy schedule of making a documentary DVD and breakfasting with like-thinkers in Costa Mesa, Calif., to talk about how he has his finger on the button – literally – of the most successful whites-fighting-for-whites group of its kind in the world.

"The mainstream media ignores us, but they've missed big stories before," he comments. "Our numbers prove our point. We have a message worth hearing."

The biggest name in the alternative universe of "racialism" is David Duke, whose trajectory has carried him from youthful race-baiting antics (donning Nazi regalia to protest a leftist speaker at Tulane University) to successful electioneering (he was a Louisiana state representative) to failed runs for higher office to a tax-evasion conviction and 13 months in jail.

Nowadays, Duke has received a doctorate from a Ukrainian university and spends a lot of time in Europe lecturing; he was in Italy when he was interviewed for this article. He has his own website, promotes his latest book, Jewish Supremacism, and surfaced in December at a Holocaust-denial symposium in Tehran.

But through all of that, he's indefatigable on Stormfront, for which he writes and podcasts. The site "is so successful," he says, "because, at last, people can get the truth without distortion. There's no filter on the truth."

You can use the table below to see approximately how many Stormfront Members there are in your area as of March 27, 2007.

As of March 27, 2007 we had 105,812 Members. This poll had 9,329 votes on March 27. If you divide the total Members by the Votes you get a ratio of 11.342266 to one. So...I just multiplied the number of poll votes per White homeland by 11.342266 to get the following approximate numbers of Stormfront Members per White homeland. Those total numbers are on the left side. The first number is as of October 22, 2005, the second (in parentheses) is as of March 27, 2007. The percentage of Stormfront is on the right.

#Members....White Homeland....(% of Stormfront)

Anyway, what is this trying to prove?  Oh wait, I have another one.

Texas' 30th Congressional District, 2006 Election

Eddie Bernice Johnson (BLACK) (D) - 80.2%
Wilson Aurbach (R) - 17.6%

Nah, there's quite a few Neo-Nazis in Brazil and Argentina. They're mostly fully white of course, but there's not a shortage of them, Argentina is actually the whitest country in the Western Hemisphere.

This fact of course also rebukes Stark's point (which was very poor in the first place).

Er, well I guess something along the lines of "Stormfront has members from outside of first world countries, so it can't be racist."

Nah, there's quite a few Neo-Nazis in Brazil and Argentina. They're mostly fully white of course, but there's not a shortage of them, Argentina is actually the whitest country in the Western Hemisphere.

They actually may be the descendents of Nazis, though there are plenty of racist Brazilians and Argentines of non-Nazi descent. Considering that there were a large number of former Nazis, both higher ups like Mengele and Eichmann as well as lower ranking SS and Gestapo officers, who emigrated to largely German areas in Argentina, mostly around San Carlos de Bariloche and Patagonia, or Rio Grande do Sul, Parana, and Santa Catarina states in Brazil. Both countries had pseudo-Fascist regimes in the immediate post-War, Peron in Argentina and Vargas in Brazil. However, of course, white Brazilians, being from a country that has a large minority population, often exhibit the same racist tendencies that have plagued the United States and other racially diverse states.
