    honestly i could see that, local level greens government seems like the one place it would probably be effective. Maybe they should just stop running for federal positions and focus more on local positions.

    The primary reason they can’t break in is because the system is effectively two party, and everybody else is dead in the water to begin with.

      effectively two party

      One party, as evidenced by the fact that both parties rule as conservatives.

        as compared to socialist/commie parties, yeah.

        but the chances of socialists and commies taking power of the US government and managing to refactor the entire government is so low it will probably self destruct prior to that, so we should probably work within the bounds of the government we have currently.

        As far as moderate lefties go, we’ve got a really good line up this time around.

          I hope they’re as good as you think they are.

            well in terms of policy they’re pretty good, tim walz and kamala line up pretty well, and they both have plenty of experience in the fields that matter. In terms of platform they’ve got basically the perfect media machine under them.

            I suppose we’ll have to see what happens when they get in office, if they do, but it should be a pretty good run.
