Might be nice if most of those third parties ran for lower offices once in a while too rather just go for the highest rung on the ladder.
You don’t see too many Greens running for state legislature… or even city council. Sure, one or two here or there, but no collective effort. The Libertarians barely have their shit together and yet they still constantly field candidates up and down the ballot.
The Green Party does run candidates in more left-leaning areas… Not that they do a whole lot better in those races, but they do try more than just POTUS
Those candidates would probably do better as independent, for all the party support they don’t get because people like jill stein blow it all on a useless presidential bid.
And let’s say, hypothetically, a miracle does happen and she wins the election. She has zero support from congress, a congress that more or less hates her. There’s not a lot she’s going to be able to do, considering.
A lot more than there are people willing to run for those positions, which is part of the problem. The other part is that it’s never good enough for you people. “The greens should start small run for local office.” They run more candidates for local office than all other third parties combined. Maybe, just maybe, the corporate lies you people repeat without thought nor pause are lies you can learn to live without.
You read the exact opposite of the meaning there. There are more positions in government than people willing to run for them period. There are more funded candidates that get a salary from their political party to hold an office, but the vast majority of elected government positions are held by people without a party, because quite frankly political parties are stupid, worthless, and inherently anti democratic.
I’m sorry you hate local government, and I’m sorry you’re ignorant about how politics work outside the pointless sideshow that happens every four years, but that does not mean the greens don’t have a proven track record of getting into office.

And now you’re telling lies about me. I have no idea why, but I have no interest in talking to liars. Goodbye.

Here and there, as I said. No coordinated effort.
Good news green has more local offices than any other third party.
Cool. Where are their candidates?
Takes two seconds to find this information little buddy. Do better. https://www.gpelections.org/greens-in-office/
See above, re: here and there.
Do you know how many elected position there are in this country?

What does not being able to find the people willing to join your party and run for office tell you about your party?
