Mainly Titoism and Minhism. Some say Minhism is like Maoism but I want to be sure. Titoism is a little harder. Some say it's a branch of Marxist Leninism some say it's Capitalism with a half way Communist look to it. Any help would be nice.

Well, I can't help you on "Minhism", but I do know a bit about Tito(ism)...

Tito felt that socialism couldn't be achieved by following another country's model, and each country needed to adapt socialism for its own conditions. This led him to a policy of independence from the Soviet Union.

Tito ushered in free-market reforms in the 70s. The economy looked kinda like market socialism. Small businessman could employ up to four employees without having to collectivise. For more detailed info..., start here. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_SFRY)

Thanks. I've been a Titoist for awhile but since I was refused membership in a communist party I figured I better touch up on it.

Titoism seems almost too far from even Marxism-Leninism.

I've never heard of Minhism though the CPV has labelled Ho Chi Minh Thought as one of its guiding principles. However, since Ho Chi Minh never contributed anything particularly new to Marxism Leninism, I would assume that his ideology is more or less mostly Maoist and Leninist theory.

As for Tito:
