Not much since they've never held major office in this country just a handful of local offices.

I'm sure they could but even if they did they'd have tiger it through a democratic or republican legislature. I did a quick search and I saw that nationwide there are 131 Green Party office holders all of which are in a local level. Realistically they are limited when it comes to having anywhere close to the influence a democrat or republican held council or legislature can have. Would you agree?

The party is trying to climb that mountain but there are reasons why it's nearly impossible for third parties to advance beyond local levels in this country. It's a two party monopoly right now.

Yes, because to me it's not a lost cause it's just voting for the causes I believe in most.

The thread creator said provide links or be thread banned. Just sayin.....

[Tahuyaman]

That being said, I don't know if a Green Party candidate has ever accomplished anything noteworthy. Very few " third party" people have accomplished anything.

No paper drives? No community outreach? No prayer circles?

Name something positive the green party has ever done, and no, electing george w. Bush in 2000 doesn't count as something positive.

An abuse of tPF.
