  1. The main problem with the Green Party is that they basically do nothing other than run for President. You don't see them on the ballots during off years or for other offices. The best way to earn votes for the Presidential race is by helping people locally. If people start seeing these Green Party members helping them personally, they'll be much more likely to view the national candidate favorably.

  2. What else did you expect him to do? The candidates that lose always support the winner. The issue here is that he's continued to support the corrupt DNC in the years since and there has been no meaningful change to reform the party. The party is still interfering in primaries and pushing candidates that don't support what the people want.

  3. Calling the Greens a party is being incredibly generous. They run for President every 4 years and that's about it. As a party they've showed little interest in running for offices that they could potentially win. Here in WA we have a top 2 primary system, which means that in an awful lot of races the Greens could at least show up in the general election, if not win, but we don't see any of their candidates here. And we've got all sorts of crazy parties showing up on the ballots, including parties that haven't really been at thing since the 19th century. When's the last time you heard about the Whigs doing anything? But, the Whigs are more likely to take the governor's mansion here because they're actually on the ballot for other races from time to time.
