Talk:Populist Party (United States, 1984)

Source for "far right" label?
"Populist" does not sound far-right. Quite the opposite, in fact. JayHubie (talk) 07:49, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * When it comes to political parties, names often have very little, if any, connection to ideology. The German Nazi Party had the word "Socialist" in its name, but it wasn't very "left-wing". This party was clearly a far-right party. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:29, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Presidential Elections: Color and Nomenclature
Hello all. I am attempting to standardize state turn-out pages for the 1992 and 1988 US presidential elections. I did a little bit of research, and I am taking the liberty to register this party universally as the "America First" party, mainly to avoid confusion between the 1984 populist movement and the populist movement of the deep south between 1890-1940. It was also more commonly refereed to as the America First party during the actual elections http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/ (note: 1992 presidential elections results section). I am also listing this party under the following color: #FFA6C9 - pink. -- 7partparadigm talk 01:09, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

(From one of the subject's former members: accuracy counts!) My name is R. Anthony Botti, and I was an active member of the Populist Party of America (the Party's second incarnation) from 1989 to 1994. In response to user 7partparadigm's statement above, I feel compelled to point out that while both incarnations of the Party used the slogan "America First" in their logos, at no point did either incarnation ever CALL itself the America First Party. From 1984 to 1987 (under Willis Carto) it was the Populist Party of the United States; from 1987 to 1995 (under Don Wassall) it was the Populist Party of America. In 1995, it disbanded as a political party, becoming a non-partisan political-education organisation called the American Nationalist Union. --Shotguntony (talk) 17:13, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
