[edit] Democratic Freedom Caucus
Non-notable political activist group. No mentions in searches of major media sources. They seem to get talked about a little in blogs, but seem to not have any actual influence or mainstream recognition. Andrew Levine 00:40, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

- Delete No evidence of natability cited. I found no mention of them in an online source of 4,000 publications. Google shows blogs. They do not claim to have elected officials from their group, or even to have put candidates on the ballot. Note: at List of political parties in the United States there are over 50 parties which have doubtful claim to articles, and which deserve consideration for AfD as well. Wikipedia should not be a soapbox for a non-notable political parties, however noble their aims or admirable their principles. To be notable, Democratic Freedom Caucus might wish to at least field a slate of candidates, so as to get some input into Democratic platforms, and to get coverage by mainstream news media. Their other-than-mainstream principles include informing juries of their right to jury nullification, and a belief that taxes on real estate are less odious than taxes on personal property and income. Get mainstream news coverage and they can be right up there with the Prohibition party. Edison 16:04, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. In my mind, a group with some good ideas, but has not achieved any notability outside of the blogosphere. JGardner 16:21, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

- Delete Google News returns no hits for the term in quotes and the closest thing I could find to a reliable source was a comment on Daily Kos. JChap2007 00:27, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
