Should owner Daniel Snyder change the team name to the Washington Reds? Better represents socialist DC. And the logo can change from the Indian chief to the Obama logo. Or a hammer and sickle?

I posted this in a different thread but my point is the same:
The team originated as the Boston Braves, based in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1932. At the time the team played in Braves Field, home of the Boston Braves baseball team. The following year the club moved to Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, whereupon owners changed the team's name to the Boston Redskins. The Redskins relocated to Washington, D.C. in 1937.
So 81 years later the special interest groups and minorities are outraged? Seems to me like those who are objecting are a little late to the party...
If the team name has to change then I would want the new name to reflect the actions of our current administration. The Washington Communists.
New logo:
New uniforms:

Good one! But what happens when the Washington Communists become a target, every team wanting to trounce them, not because they are team worth beating but because of their name.
