Good, i'm not completely delusional then. Or at least I'm not alone in my
delusions. The fact is party politics sucks. Period. We shouldn't be voting
for the figurehead (yes, all political leaders are figureheads with little
power) of some bullshit organization that has no interests other than
maintaining their own power. Unfortunately, someone decided long ago that
parties were the way to go, then everyone aligned themselves with one party
or the other. This has continued throughout the generations, slowly building
a base of old people that influence the views of their offspring. Now we're
stuck in a society where people base their own opinions on the opinions of
others.
Additionally, we shouldn't really be getting that excited about the Green
party. Like Amy and Her Computer said, the party sucks by itself. Let's say
that fifteen years down the road the Green party has become a major
political party and manages to get elected. Do you guys honestly think they
will be any different than any other party? America's politcial system is
too solidly established to be changed in a major way by anything short of a
revolution, which would be an idiotic path to take. We could all watch as
the "Green" which used to represent the environment becomes a symbol for yet
another money (power, same thing) hungry organization that has lost touch
with its roots. Funny how politics parallels the music industry.
