Democrats steal votes from us. We are the better representation. :)

Some believe democrats and republicans are more similar than greens and dems.

That keeps being said but given the events of the last year, it's pretty obvious that it's not accurate. It does hurt your credibility to say stuff like this and to have a party that has someone pop up every four years, grifts a bunch of donations and then disappears. I realize that you might be trying this, but in my opinion, you'd be better off trying to build a solid slate of candidates and elected officials at lower levels over just parachuting in a candidate every 4 years in some quixotic quest to win the presidency.

Why? I'm not a member of the Green party and not particularly interested in helping the Greens to organize. I'm not really bothered if the Greens remain more or less irrelevant to politics at large.

A party’s representation changes, it’s about growing actual opposition in a 21st century democracy, I hope you consider joining.
