Ongoing Projects

Purpose

This dKosopedia Ongoing Projects page is as an index to dKosopedia and external projects designed to generate positions, strategy and frames for the liberal/progressive community. This group of projects ensures that strong points of view are represented in the dKosopedia and other centers, where they can readily become part of the political discussion.

This allows the DailyKos community to consider the language and concepts most appropriate to our causes, as well as the opportunity to reach consensus or preponderance of opinion. With basic agreement on our philosophy and beliefs we can more easily establish dominance in political actions.
