There is no way to rebuild a rotting political structure from within. In Europe the v traditional corrupted parties are one by one being dismantled in favor of new third-parties. There is no way to know for sure that the new parties will represent the populace and better than the old, corrupt parties but it's worth a try. Otherwise corrupt government will continue to b grow sucking more and more money from the middle class. Today, I am going to meet with local Green Party representatives to see what I can do. The Libertarian Party is an alternative. Hopefully Bernie will not cave in and continue the fight to the convention.

Let's do something for our children other than turn over to them a thoroughly rotted and corrupt government.

Good for you! I've already donated to the campaign so they can keep working tirelessly to get on the ballot there in Illinois. Hopefully it will help out (but no way is the Libertarians an option for me- simply disagree with too many of their platform).

I'm looking forward to helping the Green Part grow into a positive political organization.

The nevertrump crowd should vote Johnson/Weld and the Bernie supporters should vote Stein.

The best thing you can do is contact the state party where you live and if necessary help collect petition signatures to get on the ballot.

This country does not have a single problem not caused by democrats and republicans.
