I find it simply astounding that someone would think that there's only slight difference between Democrats and Republicans. Judicial nominations mean anything? Industry de-regulation? Environmental Issues? The ability to get elected?
The problem with the Green and Libertarian parties is that they're platforms are built of spindly planks by wackadoos.
Those who believe that joining voting Green will force the Democrats left are out of their minds. That's like saying voting Democrat will force the Republicans left.
To really reform any party in the US, you have to *join* the party and work inside it. Otherwise you're just repeating some hare-brained cliche.
