I have never believed the MPO supported a name change.
I am equally positive their leadership do not accept the Macedonian ethnicity.

RTG, not long ago I asked Andrea that very question and she told me that she is a Macedonian not Bulgarian including a difference in languages. No, other past MPO president would say that and you should understand she is nothing like they were in the past - Macedonians are Bulgarians.

I will not defend the MPO only to say they've changed since the days of their dictators from Fort Wayne, Indiana.

She needs to be asked some simple questions:

- Does the MPO believe the Macedonian ethnicity exists?
- Does the MPO believe the Macedonian ethnicity came from an earlier Bulgarian ethnic/national identity?
- Why did the MPO change the ethnic description for the UMD/MPO collaboration such that "Macedonian" on its own was not deemed appropriate?

On the other hand I don't really think those questions are needed, it's too damn clear.

RTG, I'll ask her; however, I doubt if her answers would change the views of that organization.

George Mladenoff is a PERFECT example of the past MPO and he was kicked out years ago and now spews his Bulgarian propaganda on the internet pretending to be the "Makedonska Tribune" newspaper.

In the late 1800's and up until 1912 there were many more Macedonians in North America then those claiming to be ethnic Greek. People who wanted to be Greek stayed in Greece until the end of the civil war 1946-49 and then even they began to depart a country with little to no future.

Not much has changed in Greece the last 100 years and that is the fault of the Greek Orthodox Church aka the government.

Check the Ellis Island records before 1913 and see how many claimed they were Greek and how many said they were Macedonian - Turkish. I would guess the Greeks were forced and beaten to write that down? How ancient are they, 100 years or less?
