Did you know that the Green Party USA has a single payer plank in their platform?

The whole thing

Having read it, basically, the platform of the US Green Party is to pretty much to Canadianize the US in virtually every way. The US Green Party seems to make Bernie Sanders into a centrist.

But when the GOP framents Liberals may be able to coalesce into a formidable force.

I left the greens, in PA w/ closed primaries, there was never anyone to vote for.

We can only hope happens before time's up. We are at the tipping point of worldwide ecological disaster. Mother nature will soon loudly punctuate the need for reforms. It's just not "time..." yet. There will be forces coming that will turn off the whole damn country to the messages of Faux and others regardless how dedicated they may seem to it now.
2016, or 2020, the message of the Green party may just resonate like never before.
