Crowdsourcing the 50 State Strategy
We as a party and a movement need to reflect on the fact that we actually need candidates on the ballot to win elections at the local level. Many offices run unopposed. One of Daily Kos's greatest strengths as a community is to serve as a collective-think-tank-activist platform. Join us to document the Congressional candidate filing deadlines in your state and to propose who we can recruit. We can crowdsource this. Let the research, brainstorming, and outreach begin. Who wants to join us in org...

Democrats
Dedicating to electing more Democrats - Better whenever possible.

If it's a moderate or conservative in a liberal district in California or New York, then by all means, primary away. However if it's in a conservative district in Mississippi, then it's a completely different story. The simple act of supporting Democratic control of the House or Senate makes those bodies as a whole more liberal and progressive because that organizational vote determines the Speaker or Majority Leader...

DK Fans of 90 for 90
Voter registration and getting out the vote (GOTV) are critical to positive change in legislative bodies, from the very local level to the national level. Dr. Fergie Reid, Jr., and Brenda Hill started a movement in Virginia called 90 for 90, in honor of and inspired by Dr. Fergie Reid, Sr., who was the first black person elected to the Virginia legislature since Reconstruction, who served there for many years with distinction, and who recently turned 90 yea...

DKos TWEETers
DKos Twitterings -- In Election Cycles, this Group will function as a uncoordinated-Campaign Rapid Response Team, coordinating DailyKos with Twitter via Tweeting the diary out from DailyKos itself, and by asking all Kossacks who currently use Twitter, to please RT (retweet) when they see the #DKos_TWEETers hashtag. Outside of Election cycles? Kossacks can use the hashtag to get stories of interest to the Community out to the Twitterverse.

Elders of Zion
Who we are:

We are Jews, proud and unapologetic. We practice our faith the way we see fit, not the way antisemites, the ignorant, fundamentalists of all stripes, or others who would wish us ill would like to pretend we do. Some of us are very religiously observant, others are deeply secular; Jewish identity is highly salient for some of us and just one identity among many for others. But all of us here are progressive Jews. And although we recognize that th...

Fighting and Defeating the Neo Nazis
The "alt-right" moniker is just an attempt to rebrand America's neo-Nazi and white supremacist elements to make them socially acceptable and media friendly. Fuck that. It won't work any better than David Duke's plastic surgery changed what we all know him to be. Let's work together to document their actions and beliefs, past and present, and use that information to hound them out of power and back to the dark fringes of American society where they belong. Information fuels activism.

Firearms Law and Policy
To advocate effectively for repeal or passage of firearms legislation we must first know and understand current law and policy, and how both are implemented, where we live. There is enormous variability across the country; the relative utility/relative risk of firearms is different on a 500 acre ranch in Montana than for a 1000 square foot apartment in New York. State and local laws reflect that diversity. We will discuss firearms law and policy with an emphasis on the many historical ethics an...

LGBT Rights are Human Rights
This group will focus on the issue of LGBT rights and the efforts to limit them by homophobes throughout the world. Initially, it will concentrate on Russian homophobia and the Winter Olympics in Sochi, but as time passes we will zero in on cases of legalized homophobia around the world (including instances in the United States as well). The keywords of this group will be LGBT Rights, free speech and homophobia.

Military Community Members of Daily Kos
This is the gathering place for all military community members including veterans and their families. Our goal is two-fold: to publish diaries that help explain military life, especially family life, to civilians and to produce material that shows the military is not only culturally but politically diverse. Active duty family members are in a unique position, as we can freely express our political opinions whereas our active duty members are more likely to keep their mouths shut. That said, all...

Repeal or Amend the Second Amendment (RASA)
Our group promotes informed discussion about repealing, re-interpreting, or amending the Second Amendment of the US Constitution, following the infamous Scalia-led decisions in Heller and McDonald. Re-interpretation under a Democratic-majority Supreme Court might be easiest. If that is not possible, then repeal or amendment may be the last recourse. (This is not the same as banning guns. Gun regulation could e....
