    Because other than the libertarians in Grafton, they aren’t trying to build up any kind of legitimacy. The greens show up every four years as a spoiler but don’t do anything in the off years. Their list iof elected officials has ~150 people nation wide and half of those are things like “parks committee member”. If they were actually building legitimacy from the ground up like you suggest there would be far less criticism.

      This is a problem with the greens, but it doesn’t mean the only option is to vote Democrat. If you don’t like the existent third parties, the answer should be to make or participate or one, not keep doing the same thing and hope the corporate stooges don’t drive the country into the ground.
