18. not too late for the Dems, but Waaaay to late for the Greens
I'm sorry, but the Greens are based on an ideology - the 10 principles - that the majority of Americans either do not agree with, or don't care about. That's a fact.

The Democratic party is based on pragmatism and politicking. We can BUY influence in the Democratic party - because right now the DNC and the DLC have very little power or organization in Washington.

They are RIPE for the picking. We will NOT gain power through "people powered Howard" or TV commercials or email.

We need a strong organization, and money to bribe politicians with. That's the way the game is played, and we can do it if we try.
