The Green Party was created by the Republicans to suck votes away from the Democrats.

sometimes i think a parliamentary system might be a little better. it's more representative.
states rights are a joke anyway. america's not a real republic. we might as well have a parliament. then the greens and libertarians might have a few seats in national government.

Yeah, America has a "winner take all" mentality that doesn't really serve the interests of democracy. You see this especially in the electoral system where you "win" a whole state by capturing the majority.
A coalition government, while it might be more democratic, is patently un-American and it will never be accepted in the current political paradigm.

And whose fault is that?? Heres' a clue: if you dont like democratic candidates that are repoop clones, you can vote in the democratic primary and remove them from the ticket. And a third party wont solve anything either if voters dont participate in the nominations process.

i think she's saying that by voting in primary elections, we can have some say as to who gets put up to run for office.

I don't like any of these people though so I don't know how helpful that would be.... and none of these people like me.
