    Wow, so surprising they would pick one of the most hotly contested senate races in the country with a vulnerable incumbent Democrat. Total coincidence I’m sure, and not at all an effort to help the Republican.

    The green party cares about the environment man.

    It’s just that it’s the political environment. Fucking trash.

          I’m not sure what you mean. I vote in local elections too, so not just every 4 years.

          And I have been voting for longer than you have been alive.

          And Greens are in other elections besides presidential:

          Californians have elected 55 of the 226 office-holding Greens nationwide. Other states with high numbers of Green elected officials include Pennsylvania (31), Wisconsin (23), Massachusetts (18) and Maine (17). Maine has the highest per capita number of Green elected officials in the country and the largest Green registration percentage with more than 29,273 Greens comprising 2.95% of the electorate as of November 2006.[68] Madison, Wisconsin is the city with the most Green elected officials (8), followed by Portland, Maine (7).

                Wish I was wrong. I voted for first time in 1988.

                If that’s true, it just makes your advocacy seem even more politically ignorant.

                  It’s not my problem if you don’t believe my age—I know when I started voting, and I’m confident in my choices.

                  What possible reason would I have to admit that I am in my mid-50’s?! Dude, I’d trade what I have for your age any day of the freakin’ week, brother.

                  But anyway, voting with my values doesn’t make me politically ignorant; it makes me true to what I believe in. And there is no reason to get personal just because you don’t agree with my opinions. I respect and support your right to have your own opinions, please respect mine.
