| 129. Here...let me define Green "progressiveness" |
|
Uncompromising, belligerent, extremist, shortsighted, arrogant....
Why go on....
The fact is that the Green party and it's politics does not represent more than 5% (extremist), by the most liberal estimates, of the population.
The Democratic party with all it's "muddle-ness" still represents 95% of liberal leaning people in this country. But I don't need to tell any Green this...they know it and yet continue to push their agenda (uncompromising).
Greens seem to care more about getting their names on the Ballot and being "recognized" as a party rather than the bigger picture of defeating candidates that diametrically oppose their ideas (shortsighted)
And to round off the list, Ralph Nader's personality encompasses the last two (arrogance, belligerence)
So, thanks for stopping by...
